Today we are celebrating the recent release of the YA Paranormal book Tempted by Evil (Light and Shadow Trilogy #1) by Shannon Morton and Amber Lynn Natusch. Shannon has provided us with a fun interview below. And both the authors are letting me give away one ecopy of Tempted by Evil as well. So don't forget to enter at the end of the post.
Jennifer:
Describe Tempted by Evil in three words.
Shannon: Good
versus Evil.
Jennifer: What
was it like writing a novel with another author?
Shannon: Absolutely
amazing! Working with Amber was seriously a dream come true. I’ve learned so much about the writing
process and a million other small things that are really invaluable.
Jennifer: What
were the best and most challenging parts of writing Tempted by Evil?
Shannon: Best
parts: Working with Amber and finishing my first novel. Most challenging parts: Finding the time to
write!
Jennifer: Can
you tell us three surprising facts about yourself?
Shannon: I’m a
perfectionist and Pilates instructor who loves to eat greasy drive-in food. J
Jennifer: What
sets your book apart from the YA/Paranormal genre?
Shannon: Read
it and find out!! J
Jennifer: What
would you choose as the theme song for Tempted by Evil?
Shannon: Can I
choose 2? Depending on which scene I was writing, I would either listen to
Darkshines by Muse (I know, I know) or Everlong (Acoustic Version) by
FooFighters. Writing perfection!
Jennifer: Who
is your favorite author and/or what is your favorite book?
Shannon: I
have too many faves to list…but Caged Series, Fever, Midnight Sun (unfinished,
I know), Harry Potter, and Scarlet Letter are a few.
Jennifer: Have
you always wanted to be an author?
Shannon: No, I
used to want to be an actress.
Jennifer: I
can't thank you enough for taking time out to answer a few of my questions. I
hope you had as much fun as I did. Is there anything else you would like to
mention to my readers before we part ways?
Shannon: Both
Amber and I have additional solo projects in the works so keep your eyes open
for more to come! Thanks!

I'm obsessed with urban fantasy... When I discovered that genre, I knew I had found my tribe. Now I write in that world because that's what the voices in my head tell me to do. And they are very, very loud :)

Aww, you are so sweet. I am sure the authors appriciate your enthusiasm. Good luck on winning.
DeleteI do love the cover, but the interview feels a little short. I wish the author would have elaborated a little more, especially with the actress turned author bit. I bet there is a very interesting story behind that career change.
ReplyDeleteI get what you are saying. I assume it is because it's part of a blog tour and it's hard for authors to answer so many questions and write guest posts all at once. But I do agree. I would have liked to know a little more.
Deletethanks for the giveaway! the story looks really interesting (never read a book which was written by two authors)! :)
ReplyDeleteI have noticed that I have loved every book written by two authors so far.

DeleteThis sounds like an emotional and sad book. Is there any romance in it? I usually assume books in this genre has a romance throughout the book.
