No, this feature did not die, though I'm sure it seems like it!  Life kind of got in the way, but here's the next site author for you to guess!!!  You'll have approximately two weeks to guess the author and then we'll reveal who it was!

Happy Guessing!

What is one thing that most GA members might not know about you?

When I was in 6th grade, I won a regional youth poetry contest.

What prompted you to write your first story?

I was 11 when I wrote my first long story. The plot was about a young boy who sailed the high seas with a gang of rough-and-tumble pirates and ended up in a castle-like dwelling on an island where strange and mystical things took place. Part of the inspiration was based on a lame pirate movie that came out around that same time, but most of it came from my imagination. Mainly, I wrote the story because I enjoyed the fantasy of a young lad on a ship full of barbarous men – although I kept it pretty PG.

What genre of books do you enjoy reading and have you written for that genre?

Drama, suspense, mystery, poetry, science fiction. I’ve written all of these except sci-fi, mainly because it intimidates me, and I’m not that clever. However, it’s on a list of subjects I plan to tackle in the future (no pun intended). We’ll see...

Is there a genre that you haven’t written for that you would consider trying later on?

See above answer.

What do like most about publishing on GA?

As I’m sure most authors on GA will answer, receiving reader feedback, bouncing ideas with other authors and interacting with members is very rewarding.

Do you have any unique writing habits or rituals to help you get into a writing mood?

Meditation is a good practice for me so that I can clear my head from distractions, but it’s not a ritual. Sometimes, I write on the fly. I prefer having music on. I can’t have the TV on. Coffee nearby is a plus.

How has your writing style evolved over time?

I’ve disciplined myself to not write everything in first person, which is the predominant POV in my early works and too easy  to fall back on.

Do you have a significant other?

It’s complicated.

Do you have any pets?

Yes.

Do you post multi-chapter stories as you write? Do you wait until you’ve finished writing the entire story? Or is it something in between?

For short stories, I post all at once. For longer pieces, I post as I go – but I’m learning that’s not really the best plan, especially for my readers, so that will be changing.

What is your favorite television show?

The Expanse.

What is your favorite movie?

If I have to pick only one... Blade Runner.

Do you write poetry? Prose? Or both?

Both.

If you could meet one person, living or dead, who would it be?

Martin Luther King Jr. I'd just like to sit with him for a few.

What would you say is your greatest accomplishment?

I’m alive.
