In other words,

Chatterbox: Blab About Books

CB Author Interviews AKA Author of (every other) Day!
In other words,...

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) ;)

And I abandon the CB for Scratch and miss the chance to ask TNÖ questions. Annoying me.

Questions for Macon:

Do you think Pippin in the LotR movie is absolutely awesome?

What's your favorite song?

If you were stuck on a desert island thousands of years in the past, which one of your or someone else's characters would you like to be with you?

Do you think Pippin in the LotR movie is absolutely awesome? Do chickens have wings that taste amazing with barbecue sauce? YES!!!!!!!

 

What's your favorite song? ehhh, probably Down, by Thousand Foot Krutch. Or Girl of the Year by FM Static. Oh, let's just be honest here. Gimme anything that Trevor McNevan sings and I'll probably love it. :D

 

If you were stuck on a desert island thousand of years in the past, which one of your or someone else's characters would you like to be with you? Hmmm. That's tough. Maybe Deryn Sharp from the Leviathan Trilogy. Or my character Matthew...because he's basically based off of my imaginiary twin brother when I was little (and I'm finally writing a book about him! Yay!!!!)

What music do you like?

If you had to live on another planet which would it be and why?

Do you like fuzzy socks?

What music do you like? I love Christian rock. And rap. And some hip-hop. Like, my top two favorite bands are TFK and Skillet (with Red coming in a close third)

If you had to live on another planet which would it be and why? Pluto. Because scientists just can't make up their minds.

Do you like fuzzy socks? Actually, no. I like thick woolen socks for when it gets cold here in the Misty Mountains. (In case you're wondering, I live in the Shire during the summer.)

What is your favorite kind of math? Ehhhh, is not liking math at all an answer? I really stink at math. As in, I'm a year behind in it. (But I'm ahead in literature and history and science!!!! I love being homeschooled!!!)

What is your favorite kind of tree? Anything that's climbable. :)

What are your thoughts on the questions I asked? I dunno. Right now I'm so braindead I don't think I HAVE any thoughts.

Questions for Macon (sorry if I ask ones that have already been asked):

Do you you think lukewarm chicken tastes bad?

What type of writting do you like best?

Dose your spam box have a name?

Do you believe you'll have dinner tonight?

Do you think lukewarm chicken tastes bad? I don't know, I never had it. I like cold chicken, though.

Why type of writing do you like best? POV, I like first person best. Genre, I like fantasy or adventure. And steampunk. I LOVVVVVVVVE steampunk.

Does your spambox have a name? Yes. His name is Boris. He is Italian. :) (sorry, a ton of inside jokes between my friends and I in that...)

Do you believe you'll have dinner tonight? I certainly hope so...

Do you think Chatterbox is the best place to chatter? hmmmm. I'd have to say it's tied between Chatterbox and a place I go to talk to fellow AIO fanatics.

Yeah Olive is pretty awesome! And my questions for Macon is....

1) How many hours a day do you spend writing?

2) What's your favorite RP you've done so far?

3) What are your thoughts on aliens?

4) Where do you like to go to write?

submitted by Gigi

How many hours a day do you spend writing? It's actually pretty spotty, depending on when I'm on fire or when I'm turned off. I can go weeks without writing, and then get 2,000  words in one day. I'm never quite sure how long I do write.

What's your favorite RP that you've done so far? I actually have not done an RP. I'm doing an RR with Saz, and am getting ready to do and RP with her on everyday life in Inkwell.

What are your thoughts on aliens? Uhhhh, I don't believe they exist, because the other planets can't sustain life. If God had created other lifeforms on other planets, I think we'd know it by now. :)

Where you like to go to write? Well, until recently the computer we kids use was in my room, so I'd say my room. But now it's been moved. I pretty much write wherever there's a hard substance and pen and paper.
