Hump Day Interview – JL Merrow
Happy Hump Day! This week I’d like to welcome JL Merrow to the Hump Day Hot Seat! What is your favorite childhood book? I’ve always adored books, so it’s hard to pick just one! I loved Enid Blyton’s Famous Five books & identified strongly with tomboy George—like her, I had short hair and was often mistaken for a boy. The books are, of course, full of horrific attitudes to class,…

It’s Wednesday, it’s Hump Day, it’s D.J. Jamison’s turn in the Hot Seat… What part of writing a book comes the hardest for you? The middle.

It’s Wednesday, it’s Hump Day and today’s guest is the lovely Chris Quinton… Do you ever abandon a draft partly written and just move on? Do you keep a file of plot ideas?

Another Wednesday and another Hump Day interview, this week it’s Jordan L Hawk taking the hot seat… What part of a new story comes to you first? Characters? Plot? A scene? A theme?
