In other words,

Chatterbox: Blab About Books

CB Author Interviews AKA Author of (every other) Day!
In other words,...

In other words, a way for us to flatter each other immensely.

A lot of big shot writers- and debut authors and Other Authors- get interviewed and those interviews sometimes make it to a publisher's website, fansite, YouTube, TV sometimes, etc. etc.

Well, now it's time for the authors of the ChatterBox to get star treatment!

Every other day, someone will get picked to be Interviewed. Fellow CBers will post 3 questions i.e. Why did you start to write? and then the Author of (every other) Day will answer them (for their alloted 2 days of CB Stardom!). And then after their 2 days are over, they'll choose someone else to interview (or they could let me choose since I have too much time on my hands... *hinthint*)! And repeat repeat repeat. This is a good way to get everyone prepped and ready for their future real-life author interviews. And it's also fun. And flattering.

Try to pick someone who posts frequently, since they only have two days to answer des questions. (an easy way to do this is to click "Last Reply" on the thread twice so you can see who posted recently_

Now lettuce begin!

 

Let's start with... (*searches Inkwell and BaB for frequent post'er*) 

SC!

 

From the information that I can gather in a few seconds, the intelligent SC is a frequent post'er on RPS. She is currently a part of the Deaderlands RP (which she also started) in which she plays/writes as Peter Pan. She is also part of the RP started by the phenomenal ARPS which currently has no title. She writes as Juliet Butler in said RP. There is a countless number of other RPs and RRs which she is a part of and/or started.

She was a participant- and winner- of the 2011 NaNoWriMo. Her hobbies include the delicate and renowned art of Running Like a Maniac, playing the piano and chorus. The music she novels to includes: New Divide and Famous Last Words, and the music she listens to when she is not novel'ing includes Muse, Linkin Park, My Chemical Romance and- occasionally- Greenday. She currently lives Somewhere In the Universe but also vacations to Narnia on occasion.

Her works include but are not limited to:

The Guardian Angiks of Demok High (a novel written for NaNoWriMo) 

Endeyrory Pracea also known as Endey the Slayer in An Untitled Dragon RP (started by the amazing Tiffany W.) 

Cartmer Tylara Animesti Tasbreeyard vika'Drom in New Character Lounge (which she also started)

Hephaestus in Mythology RP (started by the ever-so-smart Choco)

Nyx in Mythology RP

Shade Chase in Put-Your-Character-In-A-Room (started by the amazing Quintus) Shade Chase was also featured in another Character Lounge

Dante Rossi in Steampunk Fantasy Circus That Definitely Didn't Copy The Night Circus By Erin Morgenstern (started by yours truly)  

 

Q&A Time!

(try a minimum of 3 for Maximum Flattering but more is always appreciated I'm sure)

 

Q: When did you start writing?

Q: Who is your favourite character that you have written? Including both original fiction and RP characters.

Q: Which character that you wrote would you say is most like you?

(sneaking in an extra few questions)

Q: Which character that you didn't write would you say is most like you?

Q: If you could write a story of your life, what would be the title?

 

And I probably stole half those questions from some interview or English worksheet. ;)

 

Now let the games begin! 

 

(and if you were wondering, when I do my research, I do my research well) ;)

Emily L! You are my favorite writer on this website because I love your book. 

1. Where do you get your titles (chapter and novel)?

2. What is your main character's favorite food?

3. Do you ever hate a character bitterly? For no reason at all?

1. Titles. I get them from... I don't know. I don't even know. My head? They generally evolve a bit. I come up with a word that I keep thinking of when I think of the book and then build off that.

2. Annika: Probably some sort of bread roll. Or that soup Gerty was cooking.

3. What character? Other people's? Mine? I probably do if it's in just some random thing. But no one comes to mind.

Aaaaand... chosen on May 2nd? I was? DX Time waits for no one, I suppose. Do I have to pick someone who's already on the thread? Has the creator of the thread already gone?

You can do the honours or let yours truly.

Well if Olive hasn't gone then she can go. If she has I pick... uh... ZNZ. Unless she already went.

ZNZ officially left the CB a few months ago I think. She's posted a few times but not regularly. Maybe someone who posts every day? It is author of every other day.

Well, if you insist, I suppose I could be convinced. You have to give me Internet cookies though. Or else. :D

What kind of cookie do you want?  Here are some chocolate chip ones. *hands them over*

 

Anyway, I'll just repeat my questions for Emily.

1.  What are your thoughts on this question?

2.  Does your favorite character have a pet?

3.  What's your favorite book with a number in the title?
