Author Interview Fiasco #9

Today's special guest is author Alexia Purdy!!!!!












Welcome Alexia!!!!  Awesome to have you here!!!  Inquiring minds want to know, so I’m here to ask the questions. LOL 



1.  As a child, who was your favorite superhero and why?

She-ra, what can I say, I always have lived in a fantasy world.  I think I still have the dolls of She-ra and her friends around here somewhere!

2.  If you were going to take over the world, how would you do it?

First I’d take over the internet, under my control, I can take on the world. hehehehe

3.  Other than writing, what is your favorite thing to do?

Read, I read A LOT!!! I love to get lost in amazing imagined worlds.
 
4.  Top 5 favorite bands/songs?

Oh boy, that one is hard!!!  Ok: Linkin Park, No Doubt, Bon Jovi, Evanescence, Smashing Pumpkins.  For songs, my all-time favorites are: Breathe No More by Evanescence and Eye by Smashing Pumpkins

5.  Top 5 favorite TV shows?

This one is harder!!! Only because I’m not a big tv watcher.  Ok, I definitely did watch and loved Sparticus, Game of Thrones, The Sarah Connor Chronicles, The Walking Dead.

6.  If you could make one statement the entire planet would hear and remember, what would it be?

Never forget the darkness within.

7.  Social issue nearest and dearest to your heart?

Immigration issues and Healthcare issues.  Both have affected my life in major ways.

8.  In your opinion, what characteristics do the best bad guys have in common?

They are ice cold, don’t care about anyone, even their own minions and would betray you faster than you can say: “what the…”

9.  What is most likely to put you in a creative mood?

Lots of caffeine, blasting tunes and  being left alone!!!!

10.  Is there anything you’d like to tell us about your books?

My debut series starts with Ever Shade (A Dark Faerie Tale) and has Shade, who thinks she’s human, discovering a whole other parallel world of Faerie.  She finds out she’s part faery, has extraordinary magic and is enemy number one for some treacherous faeries.  It’s releasing on March 16th with Crushing Hearts and Black Butterfly Publishing. I also have two contributions to the Dark Light anthology with my publisher.  My new series out March 31st  starts with Reign of Blood- a post-apocalyptic vampire hunter novel  that follows seventeen year old April, a now viscous vampire killer in the desolate abandoned desert of Las Vegas.  Her search for her mother and brother bring her into contact with all the results of the viral epidemic that wiped the human race out.  Does she have what it takes to adapt to this not so shiny-new world?  It is due out March 31st on Amazon.com.  My poetry collection will be available in mid-February titled: Whispers of Dreams.  As You see, I’ve been super busy but March is going to be my month, watch out world!!!
