Have you ever toured a bookstore and saw a saw a cover that stopped you dead in your tracks? Something that screamed mystery, excitement, and suspense before you’ve even picked it up? That’s what it felt like when I first laid eyes on the Dreamhouse Kings books. And let me tell you, they didn’t disappoint.
Recently I had the pleasure of getting to interview the author of those books.

Job-title: Actor/Screenwriter/Author/Comedian/Humor Columnist/Networker/Teacher
Web/blog site URL: www.torrymartin.com
Give us your job description in 25 words or less. It’s hard to go into a job description because I do so many different things. I think the job titles I listed are pretty much self-descriptive. Basically I’m a cross between being a Hippie for the Holy One and a Gypsy for Jesus. I am an idea person and have chronic ADHD so I multi-task in a lot of different areas within the entertainment community. I love to collaborate with film makers and writers. I also created the character of Wooton Bassett for “Adventures in Odyssey” produced by Focus on the Family.

Pastor and Wife's Ministry Includes Filmmaking: Art and Kelly Ayris
At one point in their career, writers are usually told, "Write what you know." Art Ayris, an executive pastor at a large central Florida church, put that advice to good use and wrote a screenplay (The Touch) about his church's women's shelter. Art has also written graphic novels, comics and novels, as well as a screenplay based on a true story from the Sudan. I spent some time talking with Art and his wife Kelly, also a media professional, at the Gideon Media Arts Conference and Film Festival.

North Carolina native Gary Wheeler is introducing the world to his beautiful state one movie at a time. Soft-spoken, with the genteel manner of a true Southern gentleman, Gary's choice of location for his film The List made it possible for him to go home to his family every night.
Based on a novel by Robert Whitlow, the film is the story of a young attorney fresh out of law school that learns about the power of prevailing prayer.
How did you meet Robert Whitlow?

Many teenagers aspire to be an author. Very few make it so far as finishing a novel. Even fewer get published. Jacob Parker, at only eighteen years of age, is one of those rare few who will see his name in print before he reaches the age of twenty.
Jacob set out to write his fantasy novel, Kestrel’s Midnight Song, while in the fourth grade. It took him two years to finish the first draft. Upon reflection, he says, “I wasn’t as disciplined as I should have been. I went through long periods of stagnation, felt like giving up several times.”
Luckily for readers, he persevered.

This is an interview that Wayne Thomas Batson allowed us to reprint. Though a bit dated, it gives a nice look at how Mr. Batson got started and his journey as a writer.
Tell us a little bit about yourself. I’m 37, married to a phenomenal RN, father of four bright young children. I teach middle school Reading in Howard County, Maryland. In my spare time… I dabble in 3D art, play electric guitar, golf, PS2, and of course, I read voraciously. I’m addicted to nachos in all of their cheesy goodness and find myself more than a little annoyed at restaurants who serve nachos and do not obey The Moundage Principle.

I’m talking with author Nicole O’Dell today. Nicole is the author of the wonderful Scenarios for Girls series. It’s a choose your own adventure-style of story that lets readers not only make the choice, but experience the consequences on both sides of a big decision. Nicole, can you tell us a little about yourself?

Interview with "London Confidential" Author Sandra Byrd
Source: NovelTeen
I’m talking with novelist Sandra Byrd this month. I’m a big fan of Sandra’s Friends for a Season series and loved her new novel London Confidential novel, Asking for Trouble. Sandra, what have you been doing lately?
Writing, writing, writing! I’m thrilled to be writing this London Confidential series, taking my readers (and myself) to London. I’ve been talking with British and American girls who have lived in Britain, investigating British food (bubble and squeak, anyone?) and reading up on Princes William and Harry. It’s all great fun.
