Author Interview: Elle A. Rose
Tell
us a little bit about yourself.
This is a scary question! (Truthfully? The voices in my head tell
me to write, so I do) Okay, well, I'm the author of The Chronicles of Amber
Harris-my first YA series-and Hideaway Hill a romance novel. I'm currently
turning a short story I wrote for an anthology into a sci-fi novel and I'm
editing my latest romance novel.
Please
tell us in one sentence only, why we should read your book.
Because Amber
freaking rocks, enough said!
What sparked the
idea for your novel?
The idea for Last Teardrop came
from my love of vampires. There's always a running storyline in my head-it's
like an on going movie. It keeps going and going, but I've realized that once I
write it out, it goes away. Which makes room for new titles (do you see the
headlines? Coming soon to Elle's head). One day, I was reading this one book (I
won't say which one) and decided that I could do this too! I had a story and
thought it would be neat to try and share it with others.
Your favourite
authors?
There are so many authors that
have touched my heart. I think sometimes when asked this question many will give
you names of classic writers and I do love the classic works, but my favorite
authors will include: Stephenie Meyer, Rachel Caine, Richelle Mead (are you
seeing a trend? Vampires!!!) Of course there are more, but I think these are my
top 3.
If you
could have dinner with one person, dead or alive, who would it be and
why?
If I could have
dinner with anyone, it would be my granddad. I miss him so much and I would love
the chance to tell him for the last time how much I love
him.
If you could travel
back in time to a certain event in history, what would it
be?
One
event I would love to go back and experience is the creation of pickles-dill
pickles to be precise. I would like to shake the inventor's hand! Best food
ever!
Favourite fictional
character?
Can I choose more than one? The
minions from "Despicable Me". I love those little guys!
If you could trade
places with any other person for a week, famous or not famous, living or dead,
real or fictional. With whom would it be?
I have no clue. I'd rather not
trade places with anyone, however if they were rich, I'd be happy to swap bank
accounts for a week so I could live it up with my own family and
friends.
What
is the last book you read?
I read 3-4 books at
a time. Fall of Night, by Rachel Caine and Bloody Little Secrets, by Karly
Kirkpatrick are the last two book added to the Read status.
Thank you Jenny
for this interview and for sharing my book with your blog!
