At some point, I'll go back and work on it again. But the novels have a firm grasp on me for now. <br /><br />Catherine, yes, I think we're all guilty of judging books by their covers--as well as reviews. Author S. D.

That said, I do judge a book by its cover when I'm shopping for my personal leisure reading. The cover is very important.Catherine Leehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14998035693869891918noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4588480316099583326.post-92160380974553246142014-02-28T15:56:53.512-05:002014-02-28T15:56:53.512-05:00What a fantastic interview.

The sheer amount of insider knowledge and experience at your disposal makes me wonder why you are choosing to write a book instead of a screenplay. ilookfamoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10966800447797199365noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4588480316099583326.post-44737432646168796732014-02-28T08:55:32.023-05:002014-02-28T08:55:32.023-05:00Yes, some people are curious about the title.

So that's where the itch comes from. Author S. D.

When I try to read a sci-fi book, I just get lost because I can't visualize the locale/time period/weird characters, in my mind.Karen Hhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13732638672537005826noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4588480316099583326.post-42995844668102252152014-02-20T09:04:00.369-05:002014-02-20T09:04:00.369-05:00Hi Karen!

Thanks so much for stopping by and hopefully you've entered for a chance to win. <br /><br />You know, it's funny you ask that question because even though as authors in this industry we are kind of forced to categorize our books and pigeon hole them in this genre or that, the fact of the matter is, my series really crosses just about all of the genres that I really love. Because the core of the story is based on cases and there are some very thriller-type scenes, especially in the endings, then I have to call them a spy thriller. But then I also include in a mystery in every single story which adds to a level of suspense. So it's also part mystery, part suspense. But ALSO at the core of just about every story I've ever written is a romance...and I have a natural bent toward comedy writing. So mixed in all of the above is certainly a strong romantic element (a love triangle--well, really it's a square. 4 people) and there are comedic elements too. Humor does break up some of the intensity. Those are all of the genres that I want to write and I'm writing them. <br /><br />With that said, I do have a GREAT admiration for Sci-fi and fantasy authors. I'm very much left-brained when it comes to the imagination. I don't stray far from reality. So, to be able to world build is something I envy. But do I have a burning desire to write those kinds of stories? Nah, not so much. Author S. D.
