Release date: June 9, 2016
Wacky author interview blitz!
(Treat it like a
speed question quiz, it hurts less that way – preferably 5 words for answers,
but some questions are so much more demanding…)
What common occurrence in
your life makes you use the mental mantra “It’s not worth the jail time” over
and over?
Getting stuck in
rush hour traffic.
What’s the weirdest place
you’ve ever unintentionally vomited?
In the lunchroom at
work.
Which M&M are you?
I’m fairly partial
to the blue one.
Is there a time limit on fortune
cookie predictions?
Not if you believe
in them.
Describe your own
personal black hole you have been known to fall into once in a while.
It usually involves
a good book and several hours to myself.
What song makes you
always stop what you’re doing and dance? (chair dancing counts)
Shut Up and Dance by
Walk the Moon,
What's the difference
between normal ketchup and fancy ketchup?
Probably something
involving the salt or sugar content.
Can you fit your whole
fist in your mouth?
I just tried and
nope, sure can’t!
Why are there no 'B'
batteries?
Because the word
batteries starts with ‘b’.
If ghosts can walk
through walls and glide down stairs, why don't they fall through the floor?
How do we know they
don’t?
Blurb:
When an affluent college-bound boy falls for
a young artist, he must choose between the life that’s been mapped out for him
and the chance at true love.

Excerpt:
They found a secluded spot to sit off the
main drag and scarfed down pieces of pizza and people-watched. Aaron had been
full of nerves earlier, but Lucky put him at ease. He had that way about him.
“I’ve got a few minutes left,” Lucky said
when they finished their food.
They got up, sipping at their drinks as they
made their way through the crowd back toward Lucky’s booth. It was now or
never. He had to ask, had to get the words out, or miss his shot.
“Can I ask you something?” Lucky spoke up
before Aaron could. Maybe Lucky would… Aaron held his breath, nodding. “It
might sound weird.”
“Sure,” Aaron replied, his heart beating a
little faster. He had no idea what was coming now; what could Lucky possibly
want from him? A kiss?
“Can you take your picture for me?”
Aaron blinked at him. Lucky tilted his head
off to one side and Aaron turned his head the same direction. His gaze landed
on a photo booth, realization sinking in. His mouth fell open, unsure what to
say. It was a little weird because they barely knew each other, but also
flattering.
“I’d really like to draw you again.” Lucky seemed
slightly embarrassed. “I mean, I could take pictures on my phone if that’s
better for you, but that seemed creepier somehow.”
Aaron couldn’t help the chuckle that escaped
at Lucky’s words, even as the idea of Lucky drawing him again and again left
him breathless. “Um,” he managed to get out, glancing around at the crowd. A
familiar blonde head caught his eye and he nearly choked.
Was Lyn at the carnival? Wasn’t she supposed
to be with their mothers?
Aaron pulled Lucky by the hand into the
photo booth and slid the curtain shut.
Lucky slid money into the slot as they sat
down. His breath caught as Lucky’s hands touched his face gently. “Like this,”
Lucky whispered, turning his head to the side. The camera flashed. Lucky’s
fingers turned his head to the front, pulling away just in time for the camera
to go off again. Once again, Lucky’s fingers turned his head to the side, only
now he was facing Lucky, staring deeply into his eyes.
Aaron tried not to hyperventilate as he held
Lucky’s gaze. The camera flashed for the last time but neither of them moved.
“Go out with me?” Aaron suddenly blurted
out. He had to do something or he might do something even more insane, like
kiss Lucky. Aaron so wasn’t ready for that yet. Lucky's eyes widened and he
smiled.
“Sure,” Lucky drawled after a moment.
“When?”

It’s all about the author…
