Today’s guest is the fabulous Constance Phillips. A gifted author, her novel Resurrecting Harry, was a real treat when I read it earlier this year. The story, characters and writing were all captivating and a fun and different read.

About Constance Phillips

Constance Phillips lives in Ohio with her husband, two ready-to-leave-the-nest children, and four canine kids. Her perfect fantasy vacation would involve hunting Dracula across Europe with her daughter, who also digs that kind of stuff. When she’s not writing about fairies, shifters, vamps, and guardian angels, she’s working side-by-side with her husband in their hardwood flooring business.

Constance is actively involved in her local Romance Writers of America chapter (MVRWA) and the Southeast Michigan chapter of the United States Pony Club. When not writing or enjoying the outdoors, she loves reality television or can be found at a Rick Springfield concert (just look for the pink Converse high tops).

Author Diane M. Haynes is today’s very special guest. Her YA Fantasy novel, Rift Healer, is a delightful and sometimes frightening romp through an Enchanted Forest. Rift Healer was a YA finalist in the Gayle Wilson Award of Excellence. I thoroughly enjoyed this novel and getting to know Diane these past months has been loads of fun. She is another one of the fabulous authors from Crescent Moon Press who was so very kind to help me as I embarked on my own publishing journey.

About Diane M. Haynes

Diane Haynes grew up drawing, painting and sculpting. Writing was relegated to the occasional short story or reports written while working with disabled adults. Although she’s written at least a dozen short stories over the years, most have been relegated to notebooks in a drawer.

She wrote Rift Healer between serving customers at her New Age shop during the months of April, May and June, 2009 and spent the next 18 months editing. Crescent Moon Press, the first publisher she submitted the book to, bought it.

Diane lives in Central MA. where she and her husband care for their Special Needs friend, Richard and two rescued Basset Hounds, Boris and Ruby, whose sad pasts do nothing to diminish their spirit or their willingness to be naughty.

Today, I sat on the other side of the “interview table” with guest host Lyndee Walker and my usual partner in crime, Carla Clifton. It was a fun experience chatting about my own book, Relics, with the two of them. Please join us as they turn the tables and interview me.

Interviewing G.J. Berger was a real treat. Not least of all because this is not only one of my author friends, but a friend I’ve actually had the pleasure of meeting and hanging out with. I have tremendous admiration and respect for GJ. he has done what I’d be way to chicken to do on my first book. And he did it brilliantly. If you want to self-publish, then I think GJ has a template that works.

It was loads of fun interviewing Alice Loweecey! She’s such a dynamic writer and just all-around awesome person. Of course, I might be a tiny bit biased since she was such a support and help to me when I first started submitting my draft query letters for feedback over on Absolute Write. But Alice’s books are a much fun to read as she is to know.

What an absolutely delightful guest Jeannie Ruesch is! Her book cover art is stunning. She’s written two books, with a third due out soon. And in this interview she gives insight into the mysterious, behind-the-scenes magic created by those unsung heroes, the book cover artist. Well, at least they are unsung by many readers. Authors on the other hand tend to be fascinated, amazed and grateful when we see a gorgeous cover for our book. (No, I don’t have mine yet, but soon!)
