Bookview with Chris DiCroce, author of The Quiet Goings On

I began to wonder what the next few months would look like and trying to come up with a fictional story in the midst of sensational real-world events seemed frivolous. I had to keep myself from obsessing over the news. I had difficulty processing the emotions of what was still unknown at the same time I was concocting a story that needed to make sense.

IndieView with Krista Nerestant, author of Indestructible

I’m the type of person that loves to laugh and love to make people laugh because laughter truly is the best medicine. I think that is why I have a lot of humor in my book. I didn’t want the tone to be serious. I wanted to give my readers an authentic view of myself and sense of humor.

IndieView with Ruby Sirois, author of Deal With Her Dragon

I turned 40 this year myself, and I feel there should be more romance starring middle-aged women. I love YA, and read a lot of it, but I find the 40-something age group generally more interesting to read and write than someone younger, just because they have more life experience and respond to situations accordingly.

IndieView with Celina and Leo Lagnado, authors of Catching Fireflies

The first time we read it to our daughter her reaction was to say “read it again”. And this went on another 5 or so times, and now the book is a bed-time staple!

IndieView with D.R. O’Shea, author of A Journey Into Dreams

Well, I was a little frustrated with a favorite author of mine at the time and I decided (out of spite) that I would write a book before they wrote their next one.
