A. Payne (a_payne) What is a character interview, if I may ask?


message 4: by Daniel (new)

Daniel Benshana | 6 comments You answer the questions in the frame of mind of one of your characters from one of your books.

I think.

That's what I did.

A. Payne (a_payne) Oh! That sounds like so much fun! I was thinking that's what it might be but wasn't entirely sure. hahaha.

Ed Ireland (edireland) | 40 comments That sounds wild! Would love to give it a whirl. Not so sure my character would want me to talk for her but if she gives me any trouble I'll just close the book.

Rebecca Marie (RebeccaMarieLewis) | 5 comments Ooh! That sounds like fun! What kind of characters are being interviewed?


message 14: by Brandy (new)

Brandy | 131 comments Awesome idea!


message 15: by Luke (new)

Luke Ahearn | 15 comments I would love to do this. You may not like what many of my characters have to say :)


message 16: by A.L. (new)

A.L. Butcher (alb2012) | 266 comments All sorts of characters - aliens, vikings, fantasy characters, policemen.


message 17: by Rebecca (new)

Rebecca Marie (RebeccaMarieLewis) | 5 comments My characters are mostly fantasy. Interviewing them can be such fun!!! Especially if they're kids.


message 18: by A.K. (new)

A.K. Michaels (akmicaels) Oh I love doing this - last one I did Zach (ancient vampire) was more than a little cheeky/rude! I think we get a great sense of 'freedom' answering as characters. If you're still looking send me a message.


message 19: by A.L. (new)

A.L. Butcher (alb2012) | 266 comments Please PM me with your email. It is easier to keep a track of if it is in my inbox.

Author interviews tend to be a bit formulaic and character interviews have much more leeway.


message 20: by D.A. (new)

D.A. (darhine) | 50 comments Fabulous idea!!

Rees might not want me mentioning his "profession" in public, however, Nik, would tell you all about it and in probably too much detail. Kian, would be more subtle, as he's the gentleman of the bunch. ;)

Are you still doing the interviews?


message 21: by A.L. (new)

A.L. Butcher (alb2012) | 266 comments Sure, not every week but if you don't mind waiting I can accommodate you. PM me with your email and I'll send the questions over.


message 22: by D.A. (new)

D.A. (darhine) | 50 comments Thank you, A.L.


message 23: by A.L. (new)

A.L. Butcher (alb2012) | 266 comments No problem.

They heard about this and now there're lined up outside my writing studio. They're all talking at the same time. I hate that! One at a time, please!

I have such a weakness for beautiful women. Maybe Joyce gets to do the interview. Oh, crap. Now they're arguing about who should go next. Dammit! Carlos says he has more to say since he's been so many people (he's the latest incarnation of a violent nonhuman spirit). Oh, great, now Jack's reminding me about… Oh, hell. I have to make a decision. I love Joyce. Archaeologist, long legs, dark red hair, loves sex, hates commitment. Hot, beautiful, wealthy and smart. God, I hate saying no to her. She gets such a wounded look on her face and it breaks my heart, but Carlos Ramirez get to do the interview. Drug lord, child molester, murderer and that's just the tip of the iceberg; nonhuman spirit, hundreds of past lives, billions of treasure, bloody footprints across history, memories of everything.

Yeah, if you want to interview Carlos I'm sure he can provide some troubling answers.

Let me know,

ScaryBob
