CHAT WITH THE AUTHOR
Hi,
Judith. Thank you so much for having me
today.
1.
What is the favorite
book you remember as a child?
My favorite
children’s story is The Velveteen Rabbit by Margery Williams. I love that story. Almost all children
have a stuff toy that makes them feel secure. Although the item they’re holding
is just a soft and cuddly object, the security and contentment that they feel
is real. Just as the rabbit is real at
the end of The Velveteen Rabbit.
I’d be interested in
hearing what your readers consider their favorite childhood book.
2.
Tell us about your
current book in 10 words.
A couple who didn’t know
they loved each other, do.
3.
When do you do most of
your reading?
If I’m not writing myself, then I’m reading. I even read while watching television. The book is open, and when I commercial comes
on, I go to the book. The television
show comes on, and I return to the television screen. I learned this from my grandmother.
4.
Favorite genre?
Romance.
5.
How do you keep your
books organized?
By author
6.
Re-reader or not?
Re-reader. If I am
enamored with a book, it’s generally because I love the characters. The books I keep are like friends. And, we re-visit our friends, don’t we?
7.
What would make you not
finish a book?
If I don’t like the characters, if their motivation doesn’t
make sense…particularly in a romance…if I can’t understand what the heroine
sees in the hero or vice versa.
8.
Keep books or give them
away?
Most of my books, I keep. Those are the ones I re-read. There are some, I refer to them as “pass the
time” reading, that I’ll pass on to colleagues, or donate.

Chase Donovan intends to spend a few peaceful days on his boat getting
his head together - and finds a woman being assaulted by two men who say his
father told them to do it.
Chase doesn’t want to believe his father could hurt anyone. Laura
doesn’t understand why she’s a target. Can they learn to work together to
discover the truth - before someone dies?
Good morning, and thank you so much for hosting “Magic Moment.” My day job keeps me from a computer, but I look forward to reading and replying to your comments later in the day. In the meantime, please feel free to leave your thoughts on “Magic Moment.” Best wishes for a great Monday!
ReplyDeleteI'm definitely a re-reader! I really love getting the chance to know the characters and don't want to leave them once the book is finished!!

Thanks for stopping by -- you made me think of a question I should have asked. Have you ever closed a book and been sad to see the story end?
DeleteThank you for hosting
ReplyDeleteI do the same thing while watching television. As soon as the commercial comes on I read. I was doing that last night while watching a hockey game. lol
