Reviewer Indieview with Mary Lanni

I think, especially as COVID has turned our world upside down, reading is something more and more people are turning to. It is not only an enjoyable pastime, but it takes readers away from the stresses of the world and gives them some element of hope in a world that sometimes feels lacking in that regard.

IndieView with Kelly Brady Channick, author of Asbury High and the Thief’s Gamble

I feel as if the idea just sort of came to me; to have four teens with differing interests, but a strong glue of friendship holding them together, working their way through each crime as they dealt with the drama and fun parts of high school.

IndieView with John J Blenkush, author of the Solstice Series

I’m an avid recreational mountain climber and have summited Mount Shasta over a dozen times. Having studied the mountain and knowing of its mystical legends and lore, I felt impelled to write a story incorporating those legends.

IndieView with JDG, author of That One Time I Broke into a House, Killed the Homeowner, and took His Family Hostage

Having done my research, I knew that a nuclear explosion can easily be survived by anyone outside the immediate blast radius if they take the necessary steps, and I was struck by how consistently people living within 20-30 miles of Washington D.C. had the misconception that a nuclear strike against D.C. would mean certain death for them.

IndieView with Kirill Khrestinin, author of Psychopath’s Diary Vol I

When I write I let myself go, I follow my character wherever he or she leads me. Then comes editing when you try to link dots discovering hidden ideas. A book is a journey, either reading or writing it. Of course, writing comes with work, but it’s enjoyable, nevertheless.

IndieView with Bill See, author of Everything That Came Before Grace

Honestly, pretty much every character is based on someone I know, and most of the events in the book did happen. However, it’s all just a leaping off point. It’s not a linear or literal retelling of history. It’s more like a big gumbo with all my life experiences floating there that I plucked from whenever I could.

IndieView with Michael Jack Webb, author of Ghost (The Justice Chronicles Book 1)

I pray I never become so accomplished at writing I don’t improve and grow as an author. Each new story is an opportunity for me to explore topics that fascinate me, ones I love to research and read about.

IndieView with Eli Gilić, author of Slaves to Desire

I think that my writing is universal and can be enjoyed by both women and men, younger and older readers alike. The ones that like a deeper read enjoy the dark underlayers, while the ones looking for a lighter relaxing book can appreciate the romantic and sex sugarcoating.

IndieView with J.D. Grubb, author of There Was Music

As has been suggested, persistent and diverse reading and writing are essential to nourish one’s arsenal of creative thought, language, and narrative perspective.

IndieView with Donna Murray, author of Wolf Den Hollow

You could say my life has been anything but conventional. I always called myself a gypsy, traveling to many places and reinventing myself many times. I have worked with iconic legends like Martha Graham and Elizabeth Taylor, and lived in Buenos Aires, Argentina and Bali, Indonesia.
