My Odyssey-fellow, Rebecca Roland, tagged me for The Next Big Thing Blog hop. Rebecca's really cool. I read her novel, Shards of History, a few years ago at TNEO and thought it was really neat. I'm really excited to see that it's now been released into the world.
And with a very pretty cover, too.

I've yet to find someone to tag myself (everyone I've tried is currently getting radio silence from their muse) but I did answer the questions. Here, in all of its brilliance, are my answers.
What is the working title of your book?
If I could just finish the damn thing. It’s a searing story of one writer’s quest to reach the end of the novel, while fighting off lots of other shiny ideas.
Where did the idea come from for the book?
A nightmare. The entire plot and character played out in front of me. It was awesome. And scary.
What genre do you write? What genre does the book fall under?
Dark fantasy. I like things that go bump in the night.
Which actors would you choose to play your characters in a movie rendition?
Oddly, I never wonder about actors. I do like to dream that Guillermo del Toro will one day want to direct my work, though.
What is the one-sentence synopsis of your book?
Love saves the day. It’s just a very bad day.
How will your book be released?
E-pubbed.
How long has the editing taken you?
A few months. I write faster than I revise.
What other books would you compare your book to within the genre?
Water, by Astrid Amara
Who or what inspired you to write this book?
A bad dream.
What else about your book might pique your reader’s interest?
It’s got lots of shiny writing. Really. I highly recommend it.
