It's been a long time since I've done an interview in this series. The Indelibles are celebrating INDIEpendence Day by giving over our blogs to deserving indie authors. Today I'm featuring the incomparable Shari Brady.
MJ: Tell me a bit about your novel, Wish I Could Have Said Goodbye, in your own words - not the official synopsis.
SB: Wish I Could Have Said Goodbye is a story about how Carmella D'Agostino struggles with her grief and guilt after losing her older sister to addiction, and the steps she takes to overcome her fears and find the courage to love again. MJ: Did you pants or plot while writing your first draft?
SB: plotted and improvised.
MJ: What’s your next release going to be?
SB: All the World's A Stage is a humorous novel about Gabrielle, an aspiring actress and expert Tarot card reader whose life is perfect and going right along as planned. But when her mother is injured in a car accident, and her best friend's ex-boyfriend flirts with her, Gabi's neat and tidy life begins to unravel. Release date: March 2013.
MJ: Now for the fun stuff! If you were trapped on a deserted island and you could only bring three books, what would you bring?
SB: The Earth, My Butt, and Other Big Round Things by Carolyn Mackler, The Absolutely True Diary of a Part-Time Indian and Stephen King's On Writing.
MJ: Who is your celebrity crush?
SB: That's easy. Phillip Phillips :)
MJ: What is your favorite color?
SB: Red
MJ: What do you wear when you write?
SB: Sweats, a t-shirt and one of my favorite fleece zip up sweatshirts in the winter, drawstring shorts and t-shirt in the summer. (I have to be comfy at my desk)
MJ: What’s your favorite vacation spot?
SB: Isle of Palms, South Carolina (near Charleston).
MJ: Now, I need YOU to ask ME a question about absolutely anything under the sun. It has to be a yes or no question and will be answered by my 10-year-old’s all-knowing Magic 8 Ball! The question can be serious or silly - it’s up to you.
SB: Do you believe in pet psychics?
M8B: It is decidedly so.
MJ: Funny, I didn't even know that was one of the replies my Magic 8 Ball could make. Verrry interesting. Of course it doesn't surprise me that M8B believes in pet psychics, since, after all, M8B is psychic too.
