Lala's Book Corner Presents: Interview & Giveaway with Author Michele Bardsley

49 Lovely Comments!



Hi everyone! I am so happy to have here today Nationally Best selling Author of the Broken Heart Oklahoma Series, Michele Bardsley!


I am a great fan of the series and it's my pleasure to have her over. You can check out my review of the series HERE


Michele has also been kind enough to check back during today to answer questions in the comments! Don't forget to leave yours!


Giveaway info at the bottom!


Let's get on with the Interview...









- When did you first start writing?
About the age of twelve.

- What is your favorite part of the writing process?

Revision.

- Have you always been interested in Romance?
Yep. I'm totally in love with love.

- What about in the Paranormal? Oh, yeah. I love anything paranormal and always have--ghosts, demons, vampires, werewolves, dragons ... whatever it is, I'm all in.


- Why writing Paranormal Romance? I love putting the weird into the mundane. We have enough of reality. It's a lot of fun to populate the real world with creatures of mythology and legend. And how cool is it to make those otherworldly creatures fall in love?


- Were there any Books, Movies or Writers that have inspired you? I'm inspired all the time by shows, people, books, friends, the mall. Writers gather inspirations from everyone and everything.


 
Favorites:


 - Favorite Paranormal themed Movie?
Constantine

- Favorite Paranormal themed TV Show? 

Supernatural

- Favorite Paranormal themed Book? You've got to be kidding. One favorite paranormal book? Try a hundred or so, LOL. I love the Sookie Stackhouse series, the Undead series, the Vampire Academy series, anything by one of the League members (try them all at 
http://www.reluctantadults.com), and the list is endless.

- Favorite Author? Seriously. You killing me here. Me. I'm my favorite author. LOL.


- Favorite Urban Fantasy Author? We have some great authors at the League, and I love all their work.


- Favorite one of your Books? I'd have to say I'M THE VAMPIRE, THAT'S WHY, the first in the Broken Heart series. I really loved writing about Jessica and Patrick.



Quickies:


- This or That?That
 - Coffee or Tea? Coffee
- Up or Down? Down
- Virtual or Real? Virtual
- Right or Left? Right
- Vampires or Werewolves? Vampires
- Reading or Writing? Writing


-  The Broken Heart Oklahoma series in your own words?
What life would be like in a small town if a bunch of PTA parents got turned into vampires and suddenly had to live in a world they thought couldn't be real. In Broken Heart, it's now normal to have werewolves, fairies, vampires, and witches living in your neighborhood and serving you at the local eatery or garage.

- Any plans for more Broken Heart Books? Definitely. Book 7, which is called CROSS YOUR HEART, comes out in September this year. And I have two more planned after that. Book 8 will be about my lycanthrope crown prince, Damian. It's about time he has his own story.


- What is coming up next for you? As I mentioned, CROSS YOUR HEART is the next book in the series. It's about vampire Elizabeth Bretton and a sexy were-jaguar named Tez Jones. I really enjoyed writing their story.


-  What are you working on right now? It's tentatively titled NEVER AGAIN, and it's the first book in a new series I'm calling The Wizards of Nevermore. The premise is that magic is real and that people are born with powers. It's a little bit darker in theme than the Broken Heart books, and I'm veering away from the typical paranormal denizens in the town of Nevermore. I'm very excited about getting write about this new world!


- Do you have any advice or tip to those like me that want to become a published Author someday? The only advice I have is to keep writing and keep submitting. You won't get published if you don't finish a novel and if you don't send it out. Don't be afraid of rejection. Keep going, keep dreaming.


- Anything you would like to say to your fans out there? I adore you all. Thanks for making the Broken Heart series popular. As long as you keep buying the books, I'll keep writing them.





Thanks so much for being here!

    Hi Michelle. *waves*

    1st question: How different has life been for you since you got your first book published.


    2nd question: Do you still get a thrill everytime you see a new book of yours in the book shelves at the bookstores?

    3rd and final question.. How many more books in the Broken Heart Oklahoma series can we readers expect? I love this series and really would hate to see it end.

    Thanks Michelle and Larissa!!!

  29. Big smooches for everyone who's dropped by. I really appreciate it!

    I seriously started writing at the age of 12, and making up stories way before that. Seventh grade was a turning point for me because I had teachers who encouraged to pursue poetry and fiction. That was about the time I decided I could save the world through the might of pen, and wanted to be a journalist.

    Veronica's questions:

    Life wasn't too different because my first published book was through an e-publisher more than ten years ago. About seven years after that, I sold an erotica anthology called CUPID, INC. It was great fun to write, but life didn't really change until the Broken Heart books started coming out and doing well (THANK YOU, READERS!). Now, I can make a living from writing, whereas before I had to do all kinds of things to supplement income.

    Oh, yeah. I get a thrill every time I see my book on the shelves. I remember the days when I would be perusing the romance section at the Barnes & Noble and thinking, "One day, I'LL be up there, too."

    Book 7 in the Broken Heart series comes out in September. And NAL just contracted two more in the series ... I've been told that my publisher considers this an ongoing series, so there's not an end in sight. As long as readers keeping buying, I'll get to keep writing 'em!
