Want to know more about Tina? Well, here’s your chance!
What’s the strangest character name you’ve ever come up with (either used or abandoned for something more reasonable)?
I have a character named Drake Vermillion…in a futuristic WIP. I’m not sure whether he will keep that name or get a new one.
If you could spend a week anywhere in the world where would it be AND what’s the story you’d write about it?
I just saw this show on PBS “Land of the Falling Lakes” it looked so cool and so untouched. I could definately see writing some fairy tales about it.
If you could have dinner with any author either living or dead, what would you eat (oh and who would you eat with)?
This sounds so cliche’ but I think Mark Twain would be very cool to sit down with, I would definately have to eat some place with BBQ ribs…maybe I’d take him to RibFest (a festival we have in the Midwest up here in the Dakotas)
If you built a pyramid of all the romance novels you own, how tall would the pyramid be and what book would be on top?
Acting as if I haven’t downsized and all my e-books are in print. I think they would be 30 feet tall and like Jenga they would fall when I pull out the book I want to read and then place it back on top…last one was Johanna Lindsey’s Defy not the heart.
What do you prefer, Law & Order, Law & Order: SVU or Law & Order: Criminal Intent?
Criminal Intent.
If you could only watch one movie again for the rest of your life, what would it be?
Underworld
If you were to grow a mole on your forehead what shape would you want it to be?
Ironically I have a beauty mark on the side of my face shaped like Idaho. I wouldn’t change it for the world.
What is the best carnival ride you’ve ever been on?
I love rollercoasters
Have you ever swallowed something you shouldn’t have (coins, etc)?
Gum - all the time when I was kid.
What does your name mean? Does it fit you?
Tina - der. of Christina - Christian One. I teach Sunday School does that count? An Erotic Novelist teaching Sunday School that’s an Oxymoron…my life is full of contradictions.
Don’t forget to check out Tina’s book at Liquid Silver Books!!
Emma’s note: Check back tomorrow for a wrap up of the Crusie/Mayer workshop!
