George the Basset Comes for a Visit

I'd like to thank my friend and fellow author Mindy Mymudes for including me on her blog hop tour. Her book, George Knows, is a mid-grade fantasy written from a dog's point of view. An egotistical basset hound to be exact. It's a fun read. Meet George at Basset Bones and read his blog post, too.

George (through Mindy) asked me some questions. I'm happy to answer.

1) What are you working on?

I'm working on book three in my Never Forgotten series. It feels somewhat strange to say that, since book one is not even available yet! The first book, called Never Forgotten, will be out in June 2014.

2) How does my book differ from others in its genre?

Great question, George. You're one smart basset hound! My book takes a lesser known mythical creature and spins the story in a unique way. It also focuses a lot on relationships, such as Meara's relationship with her mother and Meara's path to build a relationship with her estranged father. She forms lifelong friendships and falls in love, too.

3) Why do you write what you do?

You wish I wrote about dogs, don't you, George? Actually, Meara's boyfriend Evan does have two dogs. They're springer spaniels though, so we won't talk about them. I'm writing this series because I'm absolutely smitten with these characters. The world building has been so fun, and I really hope my readers enjoy the book.
