#WriterWednesday Interview with James Hill

I’d like to welcome author and publisher, James Hill to the blog for #WriterWednesday.

Things you need when you’re in your writing cave: hot tea, music on my iPod when I need to find the right mood.

Things that distract you from writing: the dog.

Hardest thing about being a writer: making money. Selling books is the most difficult part.

Easiest thing about being a writer: finding ideas to write about. There are dozens of interesting things that happen in the world each day and every one of them can be turned into a story.

Things you will run to the store for at midnight: toilet paper, beer, donuts, not necessarily in that order.

Things you never put on your shopping list: milk

Favorite snacks: Devil Dogs

Things that make you want to gag: rice pudding

Something you’re really good at: writing

Something you’re really bad at: spelling

Something you wish you could do: play the guitar.

Something you wish you’d never learned to do: being a database administrator.

Things to say to an author: I left you a great review, I bought your whole series, I told all my friends to read your book.

Things to say to an author if you want to be fictionally killed off in their next book: I thought the story was great, but you know what would have been even better…

Favorite places you’ve been: Mauna Loa, Egypt, California, the top of the Empire State Building.

Places you never want to go to again: I don’t think there is any place I been to that I wouldn’t go back. There are places I never planned to go to like Antarctica, it is just too cold.

People you’d like to invite to dinner (living): Jimmy Page

People you’d cancel dinner on: Donald Trump

Favorite things to do: fishing, writing (naturally), and the obvious.

Things you’d run through a fire or eat bugs to get out of doing: being the on-call person on the overnight shift. It was a horrible time and I’d never take a job where I had to do that again.

The nicest thing a reader said to you: I read the first book and I can’t wait to read this one.

The craziest thing a reader said to you: Did you ever kill anybody and is it in the book?
