Today’s author interview is with fellowLiquid Silver Books and Venus Press author Bonnie Dee.

Bonnie has got some beautiful covers, and she was kind enough to answer some questions.

What’s the strangest character name you’ve ever come up with (either used or abandoned for something more reasonable)?
This name was just a temporary placeholder until I could think of my bad guy’s name, but it was Blim Blam. And the good guy was Captain Hoorah. Is that strange enough for you?
Actually I’m terrible at name choosing. For minor character names I’ll open the phone book at random and pick a first and last name (then promptly forget it later and have to look back through the manuscript to find it when that minor character is referred to again.)

If you could have dinner with any author either living or dead, what would you eat (oh and who would you eat with)?
If I was with someone famous, I know I’d be too nervous to eat. Red Lobster is probably a bad choice ‘cause seafood can tend to be messy, but, yeah, crab alfredo at Red Lobster sounds good right now. And, of course, I’d be eating with my good buddy Stephen King, who I feel like I know as well as a member of my family due to his wonderful, folksy writing style.[Emma’s note: And his ability to scare the crap out of me.]

What do you prefer, Law & Order, Law & Order: SVU or Law & Order:Criminal Intent?
Have to admit I’ve never—that’s NEVER—watched any of them. At all. Period. No C.S.I. either. Nope. No crime procedurals and no doctor shows. So, instead I’ll pick The Sopranos, Lost, or one of my cheesy, guilty pleasure WB shows like One Tree Hill or Everwood.

If you were a Bond Girl what would you want your name to be?
I TOLD you I’m bad with names. Really not clever at all. How about Chestee Blonde?[Emma’s note: I like it.]

Do you have any tattoo’s? If not, where would you get one and what would you get?
I don’t. I tried to talk my husband into getting tats a couple of years ago, just small, tasteful ones, but he’s not the adventurous sort. What I like are Celtic knots or other ornamental decorations. Maybe not on the biceps since your arm is on display all the time. Maybe on my lower back just above my ass crack. Does that sound good?
