I've already written the second book and sent it to my editor -- had to give Rez's ex, her own story because she went all bitch-troll-from-Hell on me, LOL. And I'm planning Asmodeus's story because he soooo needs his come-uppance. What I like about these kind of continuations is bringing back my favorite characters, so Rez and Leisa definitely have roles in these new stories. <br /><br />BTW, off to soccer game now.

Oh, wait: that's what you meant, right?<br /><br />Hey, thanks for visiting Christina and you, too, Cameron.<br /><br />Pam - I didn't really decide to write in the paranormal genre, it just happened! My ideas are always based around some paranormal or fantasy aspect, so that's what I always end up writing about. I get the germ of an idea, then the characters take form, and then I visualise a beginning scene and an end, and everything that happens inbetween is often a complete mystery until its being written. You get that I'm a pantser, huh? (Someone who writes by the seat of her pants, rather than a plotter.) <br /><br />Gotta say here that I'm not a fan of the word "pantser" so over Writers Gone Wild we coined another phrase with an aviation bent: "barnstormer". Much more sexy to be a "barnstormer" than a "pantser", don't you think?Maree Andersonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11329496105174788219noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35532892.post-38564954304346899462009-06-19T08:56:01.593-07:002009-06-19T08:56:01.593-07:00Awesome interview Maree!

Basically it's any "grown up" handbag *grin* <br /><br />My last one was a Samsonite "Sammies" giraffe bag (think cute backpack in giraffe colours/spots complete with giraffe "horns") and my current one is a "Sammies" ladybird bag, red with black spotted "wings". <br /><br />I love them because they hold EVERYTHING! But I'm thinking they might need to "grow up". Yanno, now that I'm a serious author and all ;-)Maree Andersonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11329496105174788219noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35532892.post-91372450434830094182009-06-18T23:05:02.287-07:002009-06-18T23:05:02.287-07:00Heh!

I've got terrible taste, but what is this must-have handbag? ;) Do tell/show!<br /><br />And whoa--clearly writing takes an incredible amount of discipline to work every day to create what is essentially art! Major hats off to you and other authors who are slaving away at their desks so that I can reward myself for those tasks I'm not crazy about doing :D<br /><br />I imagine this promo writing is probably throwing your usual writing schedule off a bit, but what a good thing! And next time, this'll be "old hat"!Fedorahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10879033776125666713noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35532892.post-3496669800391550932009-06-18T22:57:17.401-07:002009-06-18T22:57:17.401-07:00Ooops! Got so excited I forgot to answer the quest...Ooops! Got so excited I forgot to answer the questions *headdesk*<br /><br />So here goes: yes, I do write every day - though granted this month has been the month of promo-hell, so I haven't had much of an opportunity...unless you count my weekly Writers Gone Wild blog posts and the monthly articles I post to my own website as "writing". But usually I write every single day. And usually I work on one ms at a time, just plugging away till the first draft is finished.<br /><br />I've written 9 full-length mss and although a large number of those have finalled in various writing contests, I haven't yet managed to hook an editor or an agent. The reason I've written so many is that the instant I finish one, I sit down & write another because I've got all these ideas bursting through my teeny tiny brain & I just have to get them out before my head explodes!<br /><br />Right now, I'm doing something I've never done b4: I've interrupted a full-length ms to write a novella. And it's hard because I'm just itching to finish the novella so I can get back to my Spartans and that heinous druid! But I have a self-imposed deadline with the novella, so I have to finish it. Or else. Or else...I won't treat myself to that new handbag I desperately need/want/must have ;-)Maree Andersonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11329496105174788219noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35532892.post-42798973515382580172009-06-18T22:45:44.542-07:002009-06-18T22:45:44.542-07:00Hi Fedora! *waves & jumps around like a loony ...Hi Fedora! *waves & jumps around like a loony bird*<br /><br />You are such a sweetie, BTW.

And do you work on more than one story at a time, or do you finish one before starting another?<br /><br />Don't enter me of course, but I also wanted to say that I loved Even Demons Get the Blues! You've got the gift of writing hot and funny and soul-stirring all at once.
