Mike:
Hi, Martha.
I’m happy to start Week Two of the ARIA Blog Tour with yet another Association of Rhode Island Author (ARIA) to
introduce to my Overlords fan base. As
with the others, we’re going to do an old fashioned interview. Here we go!
Mike: Martha, please introduce yourself to my
Overlords fans with a little information about you and where you’re from.
Martha: Hey Mike, great to be here! I’m a former fraud
investigator who now writes novels. A lifelong Rhode Islander who graduated
from PC (Go Friars!) and now lives in West Warwick.
Mike: What are you working on
these days and what’s the current status of that project?
Martha: You had to ask, didn’t you? Just kidding. My
sixth novel will be a romantic comedy with a Christmas theme. I had high hopes
of completing it in time for holiday sales, but it looks like the book will
have to wait until next year.
Mike:
Can you tell the audience what inspires you to
write?
Martha: Everyday life. The people around me. Hope.
Despair. And then hope again.
Mike:
What genre do you enjoy
writing the most?
Martha: Literary fiction. I write for both men and
women.
Mike: Any upcoming projects we should know about?
Martha: I have a few author events (Women’s Expo at
Twin River on October 5, RIC Homecoming on October 18, and, of course, the BIG
event – the Second Annual RI Authors' Expo on November 8.
Mike:
OK, time for some quick ones, ready? Favorite movie?
Martha: Broadcast News.
Mike:
Favorite food or dish to make?
Martha: This Irish lass makes great meatballs!
Mike:
Favorite place you have ever visited?
Martha: Switzerland, of course.
Mike: Favorite music band?
Martha: James Taylor! I know, he’s not a band, but he
has backup musicians. If you’re going to
be a stickler about a band, then the E Street Band. J
Mike: Favorite book, and no it can’t be one of
yours!
Martha: A Movable Feast (Hemingway)
Mike: Martha, thanks for being such a good
sport! Is there anything you would like
to leave my fans with?
Martha: Only my sincerest thanks for featuring me on
your blog.

Wait a minute, I did not misspell "Moveable!"
MS Word flagged it as a mistake and I corrected it -- my bad!
