Happy New Year!
Now that everyone has made their New Year’s resolutions and become settled in their new year’s routines, it is time for a new Ask the Author!
This month’s victim guest is Rose Fairbanks
Rose is the author of The Gentleman’s Impertinent Daughter,
and the just recently published Letters from the Heart.
Blurb from Amazon.com – “Resolved to forget Elizabeth Bennet during a winter in London, Fitzwilliam Darcy writes a letter in bitterness of spirit. Frustrated by her growing obsession with the arrogant man, Elizabeth commits her thoughts to paper. But angry people are not always wise, and secret thoughts do not always remain secret. Compelled to face their selfishness and fears, their actions encourage those dearest to them to change as well.”
But wait!!! Rose is offering one e-book of Letters from the Heart as a giveaway! Usual rules apply – Every person who submits a question gets one chance entered into the pot. If you submit a questions and comment on the final interview you get two chances!
I hope everyone will welcome Rose with a question or two!
All questions must be submitted by Friday, 16 January.
The final interview will be posted Monday, 19 January.
Final comments to be entered into the drawing Wednesday, 21 January.
Winner will be announced Friday, 23 January.

How do you keep your books fresh? By that I mean not incorporating ideas from other authors ?

I love having this opportunity to ask questions of other authors. Ok – here goes:
1) What motivates you to keep writing? Sales? Reviews? Stories that are just begging to be written? A pushy family member?
2) What has been your biggest surprise since publishing?
3) Out of 100% – how much is writing? how much is reading? how much is watching? How much is research? Did I forget anything?
4) In your dream JK Rowling moment, what is the one thing that you would love to have happen because of your writing?
5) I need to stop before I become as ridiculous as Mr. Collins. Ok – maybe too late.

I need to know. NEED to know. Where the heck do you find the time and energy, woman!? Wife, mother, blogger, reviewer, and self-published author (which is a full time job in and of itself.) I’m amazed … and frankly jealous. LOL 🙂 You must have the blood of a four year old coursing through your veins. You go girl!
