Author Interview Fiasco #5

Good morning!!!  Today's awesome author is Tish Thawer author of The Rose Trilogy!!!!!

Welcome Tish!!!!  Sooooo cool 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?

Superman and he still is to this day. I just feel that his powers are genuine, where some of the others *ahem* Batman, weren't quite as legit. And others had to have something happen to them before developing their powers, (Spiderman). Now before anyone gets their panties in a wad - I am a lover of all superheros - but Superman will always be my fav.

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

From my video gaming days, I would have to say the best plan would be to secure a location that has a wide variety of resources and then systematically wipe out other low-key areas so that when there is a need of said resources - people are forced to come to you. (Obviously, my world consists of a very small bubble.) LOL

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

First– reading. Second–watching TV and movies. Third–it starts with an "s" and involves a bed.

4.  Top 5 favorite bands/songs?

1. Everything by Lifehouse

2. Control by Puddle of Mud

3. Tonight, Tonight by Hot Chelle Rae

4. Crash by The Dave Matthew's Band

5. Black Betty by Ram Jam

5.  Top 5 favorite TV shows?

1. The Vampire Diaries

2. Secret Circle

3. Modern Family

4. Once Upon a Time

5. Dancing with the Stars

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

Love your family with all your heart, strive to achieve all your dreams, and remember that your always surrounded by magic...all you have to do it look for it.

7.  Social issue nearest and dearest to your heart?

Stopping animal cruelty and the overpopulation of shelters. I've adopted the last six dogs that I've had, and have been rewarded with some of the best pets ever.

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

Sex appeal, confidence, that tender part that's buried deep within just waiting for someone like me to find it and make them see the error of their ways. :p

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

A good night's sleep that has me waking up from a magical dream.

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

Sure. You can find all the information about The Rose Trilogy on my blog at: http://tishthawer.blogspot.com

The first in the trilogy, Scent of a White Rose, is now available at Amazon and Barnes & Noble in eBook and paperback formats, as well as other eBook vendors.

Author Interview Fiasco #2

Today's author is the amazing A. Jacob Sweeny.

Welcome A.J.Sweeny !!!!  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?

Julius Caesar. I think it had to do a lot with my mother, who read to me historical books and even some of his own writings-and then translated them to child language so I could actually understand what she was reading to me. I remember feeling tremendous respect to the way he thought and all his inventions/innovations. I also respected the way he marched along with his foot soldiers as if he were no different them.


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

Very very sneakily....  ;) I might use some of Caesar's recommendations.


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


I love to listen to music and I love the outdoors...oh and I love to cook.


4.  Top 5 favorite bands/songs?


That’s a hard one because I have a huge and eclectic collections of music.
I would still put The Beatles, and the Smashing Pumpkins high up there!


5.  Top 5 favorite TV shows?

I hardly watch TV but when I did these were my favorites:
Deadwood, (new)Battlestar Galactica, Supernatural, Sons Of Anarchy, and before it got repetitive, I really enjoyed Law and Order. Waiting for new shows to come on Netflix.



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

We are still sleepwalking our way through life. Listen, look, learn, and be patient before making your own judgements.


7.  Social issue nearest and dearest to your heart?


Women’s and Children’s welfare, and animal abuse.


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


They never know they are the bad guys ;)


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


Music and a clean house :)


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


Yes. They are complicates and are written on many different levels. If you’re looking for a quick in and out -please avoid reading my books! oh and they are pretty darn good...I put a lot of effort and research into them.



Thanks so much for joining us!!!!!  We appreciate you sharing!!!!
