Question and Answer with the Author
1. Given unlimited resources,
what would be your ideal writing environment?
Hmmm…unlimited resources? I honestly don’t know how to answer that
because I DO have the perfect writing environment. But if I had a choice, I’d
like a condo in Florida for the winter months, so I could continue to enjoy the
warm weather all year round! After all, didn’t Hemingway have a place down
there? Grin.
2. Where do you actually write?
I set up a writing office in my home. Since we’re empty nesters,
one of the bedrooms was a perfect fit to fill with my book shelves, books, a
reading chair, L-shaped desk, computer, printer, and story board. I don’t have
a great view, but I figure it helps keep me staring at my computer and pounding
the keys. Wink.
Excerpt
#1:
Amanda
Sault silently studied the words she just scrawled: May 1st, 1214—Games and songs and revelry, act as the cloak of devilry.
So that an English legend may give to the poor, we must travel to Nottingham to
even the score.
She
frowned. She was the Scribe. Amanda knew that meant she was supposed to
understand what this riddle meant. But she didn’t have a clue. All she knew was
that she, her four annoying classmates, and two offbeat adults were standing in
what was left of the lost continent of Atlantis and they were supposed to be the
Timekeepers, the legendary time travelers handpicked by destiny to keep Earth’s
history safe from evil. But no one had told them how they were supposed to do
it.
Their
problem: no matter what happened—good or bad—they weren’t supposed to mess with
the past. Period. Dot. End of story. Amanda felt hot liquid build in her
throat. Her thumb traced the words of the arcane riddle. Their first Timekeeper
mission. Amanda knew this wasn’t the end of the story.
This was
just the beginning.
