So I am scheduled to have an interview with Long and Short Reviews on May 16th. It will be a Q & A about my style of writing, along with some random questions thrown in just for fun.
Just by viewing and commenting or Liking on Facebook, you could have a chance to win a free Ebook copy of my first book, Beauty in the Breakdown! Only 1 copy will be given out.
**(The book contains adult content, so ages 18+ only please.)** ALL ARE WELCOME TO ENTER!
I've decided that until then, I'll post a little tidbit of what might be found in the interview, including information on my upcoming Adult GLBT Romance novel!
So let's get started:
*What inspired you to start writing?
I can't quite say anything or anyone in particular really inspired me to start writing. The idea of writing itself is what I love. I love using words to create worlds and characters. Words are powerful and imaginative. They have the potential to be stronger than bullets, and at the same time bulletproof. There's a million different ways to say everything, and I guess that's what I like best about writing.
*Are you working on anything at the present you would like to tell us about?
Actually, I've just signed the contract for my second book. It's a contemporary adult romance about a man named Red who's recently been released from prison. Unspeakable things happened to him there, and now he finds himself free but without a job, money, and family. His sister hates him, and he's not too keen on her either given past issues. Red thus finds himself alone and miserable. He feels the eyes of strangers on him wherever he goes, silently judging him for a crime that should never have been labeled as such. Desperate for any sort of solace, he find himself in a shady bar one night downing the driest cocktails on the menu. There he meets Silo, a fellow ex-con who understands him a lot better than Red thinks.
*Are you a plotter or a pantser?
Definitely a pantser. I'll put together extremely vague notes about the overall story plot, but when it comes to the details I just stand up and run with the words. Some might think this makes a story difficult to start, but I don't think so. I will admit I usually go back and rewrite the beginnings of my stories several times though, probably because of this. Still, I like when the story comes to me as I'm writing it. It keeps the stories fresh to me, instead of already knowing what's going to happen next.
*Do you use a pen name? If so, how did you come up with it?
Yep, E. L. Esch. The letters are my actual initials. I was almost E. E. Esch when I was born, but someone commented they'd just call me E, so that didn't happen. Thus I got the L instead, after my aunt.
There will be more questions at the Review on May 16th at www.longandshortreviews.com/
