Interviewing Author  Ulanda A. Brinson



Q1. Tell us about yourself. What are your favorite books to read?



A. A bit about me: 

Born in 1983 to Apostle Dr. Samuel and Maxine Brinson. The eldest and only girl of five, I learned very early on that I had a passion for God and for helping, encouraging, and uplifting people. 



God has blessed me with many gifts and talents as a singer, songwriter, author, poet, speaker and much more. Over the years it has truly been my honor to serve others nationally and internationally, working with many churches, schools, groups, and organizations in helping and consulting and by assessing and creating plans for strategic restructuring to grow their impact and enrich lives.  



In my younger years, I was a massive reader, one of the top readers in my grade school, even becoming a part of the Mayor's book club. In more recent years, I have been more intentional about studying and creating than reading for pleasure. 



Q2. Where did the inspiration to write come from?



A. Relationship Wrecked" started as a seed that God planted while in my quiet devotional time. I was led to focused reading in Genesis and was drawn to take a closer look at the first man/woman relationship and its principles. And from there, wisdom just grew and grew. 

I began to see 1. the parallels throughout the Bible that reflected life today and 2. tools and strategies that will help in almost every area of relationships. Like a flower, it bloomed. 



Q3. How did you come up with the titles of your books?



A. Relationship Wrecked" is a play on words Relationship and Shipwrecked. Just like a ship, relationships should take you places. Whether it's a FriendSHIP, Dating RelationSHIP or Married RelationSHIP, each has its own destination and cargo (and sometimes crew). When we begin to take on things onto our "ships" that don't belong, we often find ourselves "Wrecked" emotionally, mentally, physically, spiritually, and more.



Q4. Anything you're currently working in 2019?



A. A leadership series that will strengthen and equip those who are in leadership and/or entering leadership in the home, business, and/or ministry.



Q5. How long have you been writing?



A. Throughout life. In my younger years, it was essays, poetry, and music, it expanded more and more with time and is still expanding. 



Q6.  What advice would you like to give to other authors?



A. You and what God has given you is enough. Don't be afraid to branch out. There is no limit to creativity unless you decide to place one or allow limits to be placed. Don't be so overwhelmed by what's ahead that you become stagnated in the now. Remember, Fear is not your friend, it's an enemy to your destiny.



Q7. Where can we connect with you online?



A. Relationship Wrecked" is available on many online markets including Amazon, Barnes&Noble, and Kindle. Bookings, inquiries, and other correspondence can be made through Kingdom United Publishing at KingdomUP.Now@gmail.com



Q8. Do you plan on writing any more books in the future?



A. Yes. This is only a beginning.



Q9. How many books have you written?



A. Two so far.



Q10. Did you go to college with the intent to be a writer?



A. No.

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,

Interviewing Author Shannon Taylor Vannatter Q1. Tell us about yourself. What are your favorite books to read? A. I started reading clean romance when I was fourteen. I married my high school sweetheart and worked as a hairdresser for ten years. Once insurance became important, I went to work at a bank and the corporate offices of a large fragrance company. After our son was born, I became a stay at home mom. I love reading Christian Contemporary Romance. Q2. Where did the inspiration to write come from? A. There came a time when I couldn’t find anything clean anymore when I was in my early thirties, so I decided to write what I wanted to read. My characters kept praying and talking to God and I realized I was writing Christian romance instead of merely clean. It took me nine and a half years to get published. Q3. How did you come up with the titles of your books? A. I start with a working title that fits the theme of the book. Sometimes, I change it as
