- Favourite Book you’ve read?
Robin McKinley's HERO AND THE CROWN
- Favourite Book you’ve written?
They're all my children, and I love them in different ways. I loved EMBERS and SPARKS for the worldbuilding and Sparky, and I love the ORACLE books for the neat stuff I learned about particle accelerators, astrology, and genetics.
- Favourite food?
Chocolate. Hands-down.
- Favourite film?
LADYHAWKE. Yeah, Rutger Hauer in that film is my ideal of a romantic hero.
- Favourite music?
Sting.
- Favourite authors?
Robin McKinley, Ann Aguirre, Jeri Smith-Ready, Jessa Slade, M.L.N. Hanover
- Any pets?
Four barely-reformed feral cats and two fish named after Star Wars characters. Just the fish named after Star Wars characters, I promise: Ackbar and Sullustan
- Favourite saying/quote?
From The Adventures of Buckaroo Banzai: "No matter where you go, there you are."
Thanks for stopping by! :)
So: Star Trek AND Star Wars fan? My kind of human!
ReplyDeleteCograts on the release of Rogue Oracle.
Thanks, Sullivan! I love all things sci-fi. I got the Taunton sleeping bag for my husband for his birthday. He loved it.
ReplyDeleteAnd thanks to Mel for hosting me! :-)
I got my copy or Rogue Oracle to be started right after I finish How to Flirt with a Naked Werewolf. Which Ann Aguirre series are you reading?
ReplyDeleteHi, RA! Hope you enjoy it. :-)
ReplyDeleteI'm reading her Corine Soloman series. I just love the way Ann builds her settings and characters. Very multilayered. Do you have a favorite series of hers?
Ooo, I have to say I love Corine Soloman as well - looking forward to Shady Lady!!
ReplyDeleteThanks for stopping by Alayna (Psst..I'm a secret star trek fan as well...don't tell anyone!).
Congrats Mel I have been honoured with the Seven Facts Award, and would dearly love to pass it along to you (courtesy of Mysteriousbooks).
ReplyDeleteIf you're not into accepting awards, no worries . . . please take this as an open note of admiration for the work you do. :-)
Star Wars fan? WIN!
ReplyDeleteOh Ladyhawke. I need to see that one again. How many wolves have been named Navaar after that movie? :)
Loved this quickie!
Oh great interview! :) I love those authors as well. And I have to say I loved Ladyhawk too. It's been a long time since I've seen it on tv. It needs to be on again. :) Thanks!
ReplyDeleteMel, I had the honor of seeing Shady Lady early...it is AWESOME. Not to be missed!
ReplyDeleteAnd I SWEAR not to tell anyone that you're a Star Trek fan. ;-)
Melissa, YAY! I'm glad that I'm not the only Ladyhawke fan in the house. :-D

Melissa (My World) - another vote for Ladyhawke! It really is a great story. It has all the elements of a hero's journey, romance, epic fantasy, and great storytelling. Just perfect.
