Questions From Jane – Author Talk Extra #2

Jane from Dear Author wrote an interesting opinion piece on Book Trailers.  As an author who made a book trailer (for my book Hitting The Mark), I also wonder about whether they’re effective marketing tools.  Most (if not all) of the readers concurred with Jane – trailers never really made readers all that interested in [...]

HelenKay Dimon Behind The Scenes

Until this interview, all of our authors have lived in easy driving distance to our homes in Oklahoma City.  HelenKay insists on living in some placed called…California.  Despite the rule that wherever you are in the continental US you’re within 24 hours of Oklahoma, HelenKay just didn’t want to drive.  Have I mentioned how authors [...]

HelenKay Dimon Author Talk Interview #6

Okay, finally – we have a new Author Talk.  Silly me, I thought talking with an author one-on-one was difficult, this author made things even more difficult.
Look for the the Behind The Scenes on Monday.

The Crime of Romance Novels

In our first Author Talk Extra, we responded to a comment from James who thought all the time and energy spent on romance novels was a crime.  James, we just have to thank you for exposing romance novel crime.  Today, we’re going to profile one of the books in our video – Phantom Pleasures by [...]

Author Talk Extra #1

One of the problems with e-mail is that people ask you questions and expect you to answer them. Here Jill and Gena tackle some of the most recent questions asked at Author Talk.

PLEASE NOTE: If you’re offended by bleeped out curse words, maybe you’d like to watch a different video.

Kresley Cole – Author Talk #5

 Sometimes authors just need a little “help” finding their way into an Author Talk interview. Here Jill Monroe and Kresley Cole discuss her latest paranormal romances and Gena Showalter adds her own unique interpretation of Kresley’s impressive career.
Special thanks goes to Candace Havens for her wonderful camera work.

Kresley Cole Behind The Scenes

Shortly after the filming of Kresely Cole’s Author Talk interview, Gena Showalter sent me a photo she’d taken of her legs.  She claimed they were discolored with deep, dark bruises from the taping of certain scenes.  Frankly, I can’t see much of anything in this photo, but gave her my requisite sympathy anyway.  

Rachel Vincent – Author Talk #4

Interviewer’s Note: Finally!  An author who takes my work seriously.  I mean, she’s still an author, and therefore, REALLY difficult, but all and all, pretty okay to work with.   You can visit Rachel’s website by going here.

Two Authors – Twice As Difficult!

Cast Behind The Scenes

Shortly after publishing the PC and Kristin Cast video, we began receiving comments and e-mails wondering if the interview was a joke and how could I be so rude to PC and Kristin because they are such fabulous writers.  PC had to get on her blog and explain that the interview was a spoof (although [...]
