IndieView with Dallas Woodburn, author of The Best Week the Never Happened

The love story between my two main characters was so much fun to write—the characters seemed so real to me almost from the first page, and the chemistry between them was palpable on the page. It almost felt like I got to just sit back and watch them interact with each other.

IndieView with Suzie Gilbert, author of Unflappable

A wildlife rehabilitator friend told me a funny story about all the hoops she had to jump through in order to get a wild bird from one location to another. I repeated the story to my agent, and he said, “If I were a movie producer, I’d be all over that. Why don’t you write it as a novel?”

IndieView with Victoria Simpson, author of Eating I Forget

I used to hang out with my young niece in the afternoons, long before I started a family of my own. She was the one who asked me one day if I knew what ‘I Forget’ looked like, and told me that it was a question mark over someone’s head, in a cloud.

IndieView with Robert Gomez, author of Society Girl

Historical accuracy was very important to me, so getting locations and timelines of major events, even word choice, was something I had to spend quite a bit of time on.

Reviewer IndieView with Aaron Webber of Lost Explorers Club

I work in marketing and advertising, and I have seen many industries change over the last few years due to digital innovation. The current model is outdated, expensive, and terrible at finding good books.

IndieView with B.T. Keaton, author of Transference

Writing several chapters from the POV of female characters was kinda hard. I mean, I’m not a woman, so I’ll never be able to totally think as a woman would, right? But I loved the challenge of that.

BookView with Vanessa Francess, author of Sentiments of Youth

I got the idea for the book from living as a twenty-something in the 21st century. I think so often youth is epitomized as this glorious, awe-inspiring, peak of your life, when in reality it is often filled with numerous experiences that you have to then carry with you for the rest of your life. It can be scary to consider just how many themes we pick up on when we’re younger translate into new one’s as we age.

IndieView with Tony DiGerolamo, author of My Cousin, The Piney

I just sent $19.95 to the Idea Factory in Camden, NJ and they sent me a whole packet of ideas. This was the best one.

IndieView with Brian W. Peterson, author of Wager of Death

I love the whole concept of messing with people’s minds, which is a big part of this story, and that opens up avenues you can take in order to allow a character to create mayhem. It’s fun, and I will get on a roll in those situations.
