Angelina Monday – What’s my morning routine?
Besides, taking care of the family and pulling them out of bed, think Freaky Friday movie, I start my day with a cup of coffee.
Sadly, my coffee pat has been acting up and it’s going through a cleaning process, so I end up drinking instant coffee. The current instant coffee on hand is – Jacobs.
I really don’t add usually anything to the coffee because I am trying to work on my body. Being fit is important for health and a peace of mind, but if I do have some chocolate milk, I add in a bit for an extra flavor.
While, I wait for the pot to boil water, I open up my email and go through if there’s anything important. I answer messages from fellow authors, and focus on what I need to do in the day.
I usually don’t write in the mornings. My favorite time to write is after 3 p.m.
Yeah, my mornings are boring, but I never miss having a cup of coffee or else I become grouchy. LOL
AUTHOR INTERVIEW FRIDAY – WITH Amber Kestner
Hello! Today with us we have the amazing Amber Kestner! *Applause*
Angelina: Introduce yourself please.
Amber: My name is Amber. I am an Author of Lesbian Romance. I am a mom of one. I am also a bookworm, pc gamer, love cooking, and baking when I can. I am a big support of LGTQIA+ Community. I am also out and proud as a Lesbian.
Angelina: Did someone inspire you to become an author?
Amber: Honestly, no. I decided to be one for myself. To bring out books that weren’t out in what I was wanting to read.
Angelina: How long does it take for you to write a story?
Amber: 3 to 6 months depending on the story.
Angelina: Where do you get your information or ideas for your books?
Amber: This one varies. I am either reading and a story pops up. A movie helps. Or I just randomly have one prepared ahead of time.
Angelina: What does your family think of your writing?
Amber: My parents are supportive. My older brother likes the idea because he also writes and has published some in his state. My younger brother is supportive and has read my books thoroughly enjoys them. My sister doesn’t even care.
Angelina: How many books have you written? Which is your favorite?
Amber: 19. She’s My Kind Of Country, it will always be my favorite.
Angelina: Who’s your favorite character you created?
Amber: I would have to say Juliet from A Coffee Shop Romance, her personality makes you question on a lot of emotions to express.
Angelina: Who’s your least favorite character you created?
Amber: Truthfully, Jana Johnson from my Jana & Angel collections. She is difficult and hard to know. Though, Angel Knight is no better with her conflicted personality.
Angelina: Do you hear from your readers much? What kinds of things do they say?
Amber: Some times. Most praise me for bringing such good stories and how encouraging my characters are.
Angelina: What do you think makes a good story?
Amber: A good plot. You have to know where you want the story to go and how much you want your characters to face.
Angelina: Tell us about your WIP.
Amber: I have two. One is a Christian Lesbian Romance that will surprise readers with a homophobic priest and also it is biracial (I don’t want to spoil too much.) And another is a Second Chance, Slow Burn, Coming Out, and Enemies To Lovers also includes sibling issues with also heartache from a past love.
Angelina: Thank you for hanging out with us. Please share your social links where readers can follow you.

BOOK CHARACTER INTERVIEW WITH Serenity Eagle Claw, BY M. A. Abraham
Hello! Today with us we have the amazing Serenity Eagle Claw! *Applause*
Angelina: What is your full name? Do you have a nickname (if so, who calls you this)?
Serenity Eagle Claw: I am Serenity Eagle Claw, Dragon General and rider of the white dragon Alleria. I am called this by everyone.
Alleria pokes her head up to look over my shoulder, “It is good I am mentioned, without me, you are just an ordinary elf.”
I retort, “No Eagle Claw is an ordinary elf, you got the best our people have to offer.”
“As is right, considering who I am.”
Angelina: Which book are you from? Who’s your creator and what do you think of him?
Serenity Eagle Claw: I first appeared in Marious’ Story of the Elven Chronicles. Well actually, in Lociel’s Elite Guardian of the Elven Chronicles, but no one knew it was me until into Marious’ Story. My book was King’s Champion. M. A. Abraham created me, and she follows instruction well, for she wrote my character as she was told to.
Angelina: What do you look like? If someone were to play you in a movie, who would it be?
Serenity Eagle Claw: “I have long dark hair, and am considered to be one of the fairest women in the Elven Empire. Alleria is a powerful dragon, none are better.”
Angelina: What does your voice sound like?
Serenity Eagle Claw: “I have a soft, melodic voice, unless I get really angry. Then I let the General I am come out and can sound fierce and firm. No one doubts if I mean what I say then.”
Angelina: Do you have a motto? If so, what is it?
Serenity Eagle Claw: “My family motto – For the King and Elven Empire!”
Angelina: Do you have any annoying habits, quirks, strange mannerisms, or other defining characteristics?
Serenity Eagle Claw: “I am very protective of those I love. I was also taught how to defend myself by my brothers, so I wouldn’t be taken advantage of by anyone who refuses to accept my boundaries. I fear little in the world I live in.”
Angelina: Do you have any physical traits that stand out (such as scars, birthmarks, tattoos, tentacles etc.)? If you have scars, how did you get them? If you have tattoos, why did you get them and what meaning do they have to you?
Serenity Eagle Claw: “I am the only dark haired elf in my family. I don’t consider my differences from humans and others as features that stick out. Although humans might consider my pointed ears and elven eyes as different.”
Angelina: Which words or phrases do you most overuse?
Serenity Eagle Claw: “I am more a woman of action more than one of words.”
Angelina: What do you consider the most important event of your life so far?
Serenity Eagle Claw: “The day I was chosen to ride the White Dragon, Alleria. It is the day I became the Dragon General.. It isn’t in the book, but I expect it to be in the future.”
Angelina: Do you have a girlfriend, boyfriend, a harem etc?
Serenity Eagle Claw: “My Life Mate, Torrent. He was/is the Warrior Champion of the High Elven Kingdom.”
Angelina: Which person do you wish you were closest to?
Serenity Eagle Claw: “I am close to all those I want to be. Torrent is my Life Mate, so he features the highest in my list, but the one I connect with the most because of our positions in the Empire is my nephew, the High Lord General Gabriel Eagle Claw.”
Angelina: Why should the readers pick up your story and where can they get it?
Serenity Eagle Claw: “Where should I start? To meet Alleria? To see how far Torrent will go to win my hand? To get to know more about the world I live in? To see why we live as we do? To see how we live and love? There are many reasons.
As for where to find my story in the series, this is the easiest way to get there. Pick a venue and click on the link.”

Angelina Monday – How does my writing stand out from others?
Good Morning!
Hmm. I asked myself a really tough question, but hey I want you guys to get to know me lol
English isn’t my native tongue, so my thinking and some phrases in my books may sound foreign. And, rather than just sticking to ‘what I know’, I tend to explore characters who may be a tad different.
Some examples –
- A blind college student
- A fox shifter
- A bear shifter who can’t shift
- A Korean Male Lead falling for a German-American Lead
- A woman losing the ability to speak due to trauma
- A woman falling for a man with tentacles
- A witch forensic anthopologist
- A vampire who wants love but doesn’t want this sisters to torture his lover
Thanks to trying to think outside the box, I had to really step out of my comfort zone.
- I bought books on military, and nonfiction books on mafia
- I spoke with partially blind readers and had them be betas to see if I wrote well
- I reached out to my Korean friends for support and help with my Korean and to make sure I didn’t hurt anyone’s feelings
- I reached out to people who are experienced in certain areas like – kayaking
- I reached out to psychologists to talk about on how to heal patients due to voice loss
- I reached out to Japanese communities to learn about Kami and foxes
- I explored Korean, Japanese, Slavic, German, American shops
- Rather than just focusing on the craft of writing, I explored possibilities of adding art and maps to my stories. All maps are created by me. Characters drawings done by various artists.
- I bought books in various genres to improve for my own writing

AUTHOR INTERVIEW FRIDAY – WITH L.D. WOSAR
Hello! Today with us we have the amazing L.D. Wosar! *Applause*
Angelina: Introduce yourself please.
L.D. Wosar: Hey there! I am L.D. Wosar, from Las Vegas, NV for close to twenty years. I predominantly write PNR from YA to a bit more steamy fare.
Angelina: Did someone inspire you to become an author?
L.D. Wosar: My fifth grade teacher, Mr. Blevins, inspired me to become an author starting with brainstorming sessions. This led to my love of telling tall, ridiculous tales that became on obsession to write on anything I could find. If I had a story, I told it.
Angelina: How long does it take for you to write a story?
L.D. Wosar: It depends. My first published book, Island Stream, took me 35 years. The shortest amount for a couple of my books was 2 weeks. It depends on if I feel the story, as to how long it will take me to write it.
Angelina: Where do you get your information or ideas for your books?
L.D. Wosar: I have a very vivid imagination, so a lot of my ideas will hit me when I doing something random…mostly, when I am supposed to be sleeping.
Angelina: What does your family think of your writing?
L.D. Wosar: My family is very supportive, though, sadly, none of them, except my brother and sister-in-law, have read my books.
Angelina: How many books have you written? Which is your favorite?
L.D. Wosar: To date, I have written and published 27 of my stories – either solo or anthologies. My top three solo books I have written are Jagged Little Hood, Relic and most recently, Chrome Poppies.
Angelina: Who’s your favorite character you created?
L.D. Wosar: Kaysee Marie Belluomo from my Belluomo Vampy Saga. She is crass, she is foul but she’s tough and such a fun character.
Angelina: Who’s your least favorite character you created?
L.D. Wosar: My least favorite has to be the first female I ever wrote and that was Emily Coates. I tried to find ways to torture her or even kill her when I was writing Island Stream. She was stupid, very wishy washy and in my opinion, boring.
Angelina: Do you hear from your readers much? What kinds of things do they say?
L.D. Wosar: I do hear from a small handful of my readers and what they comment on is how much they like my writing style.
Angelina: What do you think makes a good story?
L.D. Wosar: Strong characters for one. If the characters are weak or comparable to cardboard cutouts, there would be nothing to drive the story. Also, suspense makes a good story and I am one who loves to write twists.
Angelina: Tell us about your WIP.
L.D. Wosar: I have three I am working on, but the one I want to talk more about is Flawed Incubus: Mystic Angels Book 1. It is a rewrite since the original was kind of a mess and my head was not in it. I have teamed with my good friend and talented co-author, Nikita Fairchild, to write the series centered on Wilhelmina ‘Willa’ Chambers and what she learns on her journey of becoming a powerful force that could either destroy hell or bring balance to both Heaven and Hell.
Angelina: Thank you for hanging out with us. Please share your social links where readers can follow you.
