Interview with Brit Lunden
As a writer, what would you choose as your
mascot/avatar/spirit animal?
·
I would choose a kestrel. A kestrel is a
fast-flying hawk that has the ability to zoom into small spaces. This way I
would get a birds-eye view of what is going on in my storyline.
How many hours a day do you put into your writing?
·
Would you believe 25 hours a day? (If there
really is such a thing). In other words, I am always writing or thinking about
my characters. When you finish with the creative side the hard work of
marketing and promoting begins. Days run into each other and realistically a
book takes over your every waking minute. In all reality, I write in the
evenings from 8 PM until my eyes drift shut.
Do you read your book reviews?
·
I love reading reviews. When I notice a new
review it’s a bit like opening a present. I am filled with excitement. For the
most part, the reviews have been helpful and encouraging. When I do receive a
negative review, I find them useful to improving my skills. When an author
reads reviews they learn just who their audience really is and helps with
future books.
Do you leave hidden messages in your books that only a few
people will find?
·
Many of my fictional books have both messages
and lessons in them that I hope more than just a few people will find. All my
books whether they are written for a young audience under my other pen name, or
an older audience, written under this pen name have subtle messages that
readers can relate and in some cases make them feel good.
Can you tell us a little bit about the characters in The Devil and
Dayna Dalton?
·
“The Devil and Dayna Dalton” was written as an
apology to the character Dayna Dalton. People first met Dayna in “Bulwark”, the
first book in the anthology, where she appears as a home-wrecking and
insensitive character. I felt I did her wrong and decided to write this book
giving her a backstory so that people could understand who the real person is.
Very often people’s perceptions are based on shallow reasons and when we get to
know the person as a whole we understand their motivation. Early reviews reflect
that people have a new respect for my character, Dayna. I’m delighted with this
outcome.
Can you tell us a little bit about your next books or what you have
planned for the future?
·
I would like to do the same thing for Trout
Parker, the villain, in Bulwark, that I did for Dayna.
Do you allow yourself a certain number of hours to write or do you
write as long as the words come?
·
I write as long as the words come.
Do you have a certain number of words or pages you write per day?
·
I like to hit a 3,000-word milestone each day.
What inspires you to write?
·
Stories bubble up and have always been there,
but, when I read reviews of the books I’ve written it motivates me to continue
to write.
Would you rather
Read fiction or
non-fiction?
·
I read both. I love both, and I alternate one
with the other.
Read series or
stand-alone?
·
I prefer a stand-alone book.
Read Science fiction
or horror?
·
I never read horror. It makes me nervous, which
is ironic because that’s what Bulwark and the series genre.
Read Stephen King or
Dean Koontz
·
If I’m going to read horror, it’s going to be
Stephen King.
Read the book or
watch the movie?
·
Read the book.
Read an ebook or
paperback?
·
Paperback.
Be trapped alone for
one month in a library with no computer or a room with a computer and Wi-Fi
only?
·
Library, and I’ll swallow the key.
Do a cross-country
book store tour or blog tour online?
·
No, blog tour online. I love being able to reach
so many people who may not have an opportunity to get to a book store.
