In other words,
Chatterbox: Blab About Books
In other words, a way for us to flatter each other immensely.
A lot of big shot writers- and debut authors and Other Authors- get interviewed and those interviews sometimes make it to a publisher's website, fansite, YouTube, TV sometimes, etc. etc.
Well, now it's time for the authors of the ChatterBox to get star treatment!
Every other day, someone will get picked to be Interviewed. Fellow CBers will post 3 questions i.e. Why did you start to write? and then the Author of (every other) Day will answer them (for their alloted 2 days of CB Stardom!). And then after their 2 days are over, they'll choose someone else to interview (or they could let me choose since I have too much time on my hands... *hinthint*)! And repeat repeat repeat. This is a good way to get everyone prepped and ready for their future real-life author interviews. And it's also fun. And flattering.
Try to pick someone who posts frequently, since they only have two days to answer des questions. (an easy way to do this is to click "Last Reply" on the thread twice so you can see who posted recently_
Now lettuce begin!
Let's start with... (*searches Inkwell and BaB for frequent post'er*)
SC!
From the information that I can gather in a few seconds, the intelligent SC is a frequent post'er on RPS. She is currently a part of the Deaderlands RP (which she also started) in which she plays/writes as Peter Pan. She is also part of the RP started by the phenomenal ARPS which currently has no title. She writes as Juliet Butler in said RP. There is a countless number of other RPs and RRs which she is a part of and/or started.
She was a participant- and winner- of the 2011 NaNoWriMo. Her hobbies include the delicate and renowned art of Running Like a Maniac, playing the piano and chorus. The music she novels to includes: New Divide and Famous Last Words, and the music she listens to when she is not novel'ing includes Muse, Linkin Park, My Chemical Romance and- occasionally- Greenday. She currently lives Somewhere In the Universe but also vacations to Narnia on occasion.
Her works include but are not limited to:
The Guardian Angiks of Demok High (a novel written for NaNoWriMo)
Endeyrory Pracea also known as Endey the Slayer in An Untitled Dragon RP (started by the amazing Tiffany W.)
Cartmer Tylara Animesti Tasbreeyard vika'Drom in New Character Lounge (which she also started)
Hephaestus in Mythology RP (started by the ever-so-smart Choco)
Nyx in Mythology RP
Shade Chase in Put-Your-Character-In-A-Room (started by the amazing Quintus) Shade Chase was also featured in another Character Lounge
Dante Rossi in Steampunk Fantasy Circus That Definitely Didn't Copy The Night Circus By Erin Morgenstern (started by yours truly)
Q&A Time!
(try a minimum of 3 for Maximum Flattering but more is always appreciated I'm sure)
Q: When did you start writing?
Q: Who is your favourite character that you have written? Including both original fiction and RP characters.
Q: Which character that you wrote would you say is most like you?
(sneaking in an extra few questions)
Q: Which character that you didn't write would you say is most like you?
Q: If you could write a story of your life, what would be the title?
And I probably stole half those questions from some interview or English worksheet. ;)
Now let the games begin!
(and if you were wondering, when I do my research, I do my research well) ;)

1. If I forced you to set your next book in Antarctica and tortured you by making you listen to screechy, out of tune music until you wrote it, what would the plot be?
2. If someone gave the first villain you have ever written about (that you remember) a jack-in-the-box, what would he/she/it do?
3. Would you ever consider killing off a character?
Sorry for the first two questions, but someone has to ask the useless ones!
(May 31, 2012 - 8:01 pm)

Q: If you could get any director to direct an adaptation of your favourite novel (that you wrote) who would it be?
Q: If you could get any actor/actress to play the main character in said adaptation, who would it be?
Q: Are you doing Camp NaNo?
(June 3, 2012 - 7:27 pm)

Ohh right then MAPLE!
(June 4, 2012 - 3:03 pm)
Thank you so much!!!!!!!
(June 4, 2012 - 7:32 pm)
Sorry, but did Maple recently change her name? If so what was it earlier? There are so many people changing their names that I can't keep track. :)
Congrats Maple!
1. Are you writing a book right now? Or more than one? If so (and you want to tell us) what is it about?
2. Take one of your RP characters and put an army of squirls in front of him/her. What happens? :D
3. What do you think would happen if Harry Potter offered one of your characters Berty Botts Every Flavored Beans (or however you spell it)? :)
(June 4, 2012 - 11:41 pm)
I think she changed her name from Claire H.
I'm going to repeat my questions from ZNZ:
What is your favorite girls name?
What is your favorite boys name?
What is your favorite song? If thats to hard, favorite singer.
What is you Favorite kind of food?
(June 5, 2012 - 11:49 am)
I just want to mention that this is really fun.
What is your favorite girl's name?
My top two are Heather and Meredith.
What is your favorite boy's name?
Evan.
What is your favorite song? If that's hard,favorite singer?
I don't know my favorite song,nor my favorite artist,but some of my favorite songs are: Welcome to the Rainbow by Basshunter, Sway your Head by We Shot the Moon,Coming Back Around by John Powell,from How to Train Your Dragon.
What is your favorite kind of food?
First,I would like to personally thank you that you did not ask me what my favorite food was. I cannot answer that question.So,thank you. My favorite kind of food is bread,meat,and milk. Even though that's not strictly food.
(June 5, 2012 - 6:54 pm)
Yes, I did recently change my Cricket name. It was originally Claire H.
1.Are you writing a book right now? Or more than one? If so (And you want to tell us) what is it about?
Since I hate typing( And i'm lazy) I will post this link. http://www.cricketmagkids.com/chatterbox/blababoutbooks/node/100921
I also have an idea for another book called Quilt of Stories. It is about this girl who finds a quilt,and on every different square there is a story.She must find the owner of the quilt,and find a way to help them.
2.Take one of your RP characters and put an army of squirls in front of him/her. What happens?
Did you perhaps mean squirrels? Because I don't know what squirls are.( And I looked it up on Google.) If you did mean squirrels than I will answer your question. I am thinking of Aspen. I don't think she would turn into a tree,because she knows about about squirrels, and they would eat her. And since she's not the stand-and-fight kind of person,she would probably run. And then the squirrels would catch her. What happens after that, I have no idea.
3.What do you think would happen Harry Potter offered one of your characters Berty Bott's every flavored beans?
Well,my character Riminessa would not know or recognize Harry Potter, but he would look very strange. But having met strange people all the time she would take it,checking first for poison of course. If it was a nasty tasting one she would never sell him a ribbon. If it was a good one she would say Thankyou and be on her way.
Olive,should I answer the questions you asked Melody?
(June 5, 2012 - 1:29 pm)
Yes, I meant squirrels. Sorry. I wasn't paying attention to my spelling. *embarrassment*
(June 6, 2012 - 12:17 am)
Yes, that would be good. :)
(June 7, 2012 - 6:37 pm)
