Author Q&A

Why did this author take part in the A to Z Challenge the year that your book was "given life"?   
It's the ten year anniversary. I'm very excited to be a co-host of the A to Z Challenge. This is an incredible community.

Why did this author start blogging?   
This is answered in my very first blog post.
"You may wonder why I started a blog. I may wonder that too! Actually, this blog was started because I heard about the A to Z challenge from some nanowrimo friends."

Any other books coming out soon?   
This is my current new publication.
"WRITING BOOK REVIEWS AS AN AUTHOR: INSPIRATION TO MAKE IT EASIER"
I have several stories in the works though.

What other books do you have available?    
"Fractions of Existence"  An urban fantasy. Free on Kindle Unlimited.

Brief tip on writing:     

Here's a motivational quote of mine about when you feel like giving up on writing.

Where did the idea for this book come from, other than the alphabet and the challenge?   
The idea came from interviewing so many debut authors at Operation Awesome. (http://operationawesome6.blogspot.com) I noticed that some authors reviewed a lot of books, and others had never written one. I set out to inspire those who didn't write reviews. It turned out to be long enough for a month of blog posts (this coming April). Then I noticed I had enough to make a reference book.

What writing goal do you hope to accomplish this year?   
My biggest writing goal this year is to publish two books in 2019.

As a reader, what most motivates you to buy a new book to read?
A recommendation from a trusted source, reading something interesting about the book, or the book being by an author I like.

Why should we read your book?
The best reason to read "Writing Book Reviews As An Author: Inspiration To Make It Easier" is to encourage yourself to write book reviews. It is geared toward authors, who have slightly different insights when writing reviews. And more reasons for writing them. But it is useful to anyone looking for motivation to write book reviews, and to do so faster. 

What is one question or discussion topic which you would like the readers of this post to answer or remark on in the blog comments?   
What motivates you to write book reviews? (Or, if you don't write them, what deters you?)
