If
you could travel in a Time Machine would you go back to the past or
into the future?
France: 1850 – 1950.
Just think of what was accomplished in art and literature during that
period. Amazing!
If
you could invite any 5 people to dinner who would you choose?
Jesus
Picasso
Leonardo Di Vinci
Shakespeare
Jacques Cousteau
If you were stranded on a desert island what 3 things would you want with you?
A big boat to get us
off the island
A fully stocked kitchen
and wine cabinet on the boat
An interesting
companion to share the voyage
Mrs. Tuesday's Departure |
What is one book everyone should read?
The Bible. Whether you
are religious or not, reading it and embracing its basic principles
will make you a more gentle, happier, peaceful person.
Please tell us in one sentence only, why we should read your book.
I hope that it will
bring you pleasure and touch your heart.
Any other books in the works? Goals for future projects?
Yes! I’m completing a
children’s chapter book, God
Loves You, -Chester Blue, which will be out in August. I
can’t wait! And then I have another women’s novel that will be
published in the fall.
If you could jump in to a book, and live in that world.. which would it be?
I’d love to try life
in a Jane Austen novel, or a steamy historical romance.
What's the best advice anyone has ever given you?
When you fail, you are
given a choice: If you quit, you lose. If you continue on, you win.
So, never give up.
Telling Stories |
How do you react to a bad review?
If the criticism is
valid, I use it to improve my book or my work-in-progress. If someone
takes the time to write a thoughtful review, even if it is negative,
I believe it is valuable to an author.
If you were a bird, which one would you be?
An eagle. I admire
their beauty and strength.
You have won one million dollars what is the first thing that you would buy?
A beachfront house on
Friday Harbor, one of the most beautiful places in America. I
currently live in the mountains, but I also love the ocean.
Which authors have influenced you most, how?
Hemingway’s
descriptions are incredible. e.e. cummings is a wonderful romantic.
Dr. Suess has a wonderfully joyful view of the world.
What do you do in your free time?
Get lost in a good
book. Or take my dogs to the off-leash dog trails. Both are wonderful
ways to unwind.
Who
or what inspired you to become an author?
The desire to create
stories for others, which hopefully bring them the same joy I feel
when I read a wonderful book. Does that make sense?

Well Well, looks like I exhausted my questions. Hoping the stars would bestow all success on Suzanne Anderson and her book
