Interviewing children's author krystal fernandes



Here is Krystal Fernandes She is a children's author and I had the privilege of interviewing Her On my blog.  

Q1.when did you decide you were going to write a book?

A. Honestly, I have been writing stories since I was about 11-years-old. It was only until about a few years ago that I decided, “You know what? I want to share them with the world.” And I did just that!

Q2. How did you come up with the name of your books?

A. I came up with the themes first and then just started writing. After the story started coming together, that’s usually when I get the idea of what my title should be. If I really get stumped, I’ll ask my husband for his input too. He’s been quite helpful. 

Q3. What are you working on now for 2018?

A. Excitingly enough, my first book “Jasper the Bold(ish)” is set to come out this Summer! I have a couple other titles and books up my sleeve though. One is almost complete, so maybe you’ll see in by 2019.

Q4.How long have you been writing?

A. I have been writing for enjoyment since around 11-years-old. That makes it around 20 years. Whoa! I have only recently realized that I should share my writing with the world and how possible it really is if you set out to reach that goal.

Q5. What advice would you give other authors?

A. That is simple. To never, ever give up. Never let anyone tell you that you cannot do it, it’s too difficult, or that you’re dreaming too big. There is never a dream too big- only small minds that cannot recognize its greatness. Yes, it is a trying, long journey, but the feeling at the end makes it completely worth it.

Q6.Where can people find you online?

A. Follow me on my Facebook page, 


 Q7. Do you plan on making more books in the future?


A. Absolutely! I already have my next one lined up!

Q8. How many books have you written?

A. Written? About five. Published? Just this first one. I’m aiming to have the other books out there as well, but you have to start somewhere first!



Q9.Did you go to college to be a writer?

A. Oddly enough, I did not. Of course, I took some writing courses, but I went to college for Early Childhood Education. My passion has always been writing and working with children. I am blessed enough to have the ability to do both and it truly makes my heart happy.

Interviewing Author Grahame Peace Q1. Tell me about yourself what are your favorite books to read? A. I’m 61 years of age and was born in the Northern Textile Town of Huddersfield in England where I still live with my partner. I like many genres of books, but I don’t like anything too dark; before I retired I worked for many years in Mental Health Services in the UK, so I had more than my fill of ‘life’, and the ups and downs it can throw at people. So, I tend to go for books that offer escapism, I also like history, autobiographies, and biographies. At the moment I’m enjoying the fictional book ‘The Haunting of Ashburn House by Darcy Coates. I say I’m retired, but I now consider myself to be an author, I treat it as a full-time job, working on my books for several hours most days. Q2. when did you decide you were going to write a book? A. I retired from my job with the National Health Service in the UK nearly five years ago now; I’d already started my first book by th

Interview Author Gabriella Messina Q1. Tell me about yourself what are your favorite books to read?  A.  I’ve found that, as I continue to grow as a writer, I’ve grown more selective as a reader. I tend to choose books from the same genres that I write… mysteries, historical fiction, fantasy… and I gravitate back to older books more than newer. I like stories that move at a good, steady pace, almost like a well-made film; that isn’t preachy, but still, give you something to think about; and that have well-developed characters that act like real people.  Q2.when did you decide you were going to write a book? I’d been  A.writing screenplays since the early 2000s and I’d gotten some notice for them, but getting into that industry is notoriously difficult and expensive. Then I learned about the rise of indie publishing, KDP and such, and decided to try adapting the stories into novels. Q3. How did you come up with the name of your books?  A. Poetry, songs,
