Q.2 how did you come up with the name of your books A.  Derek the Alien and the Orange Jelly Planet' was my first book published in January of this year. I have no idea where I got the name from although I did think of 'Mickey' at first but then considered it might sound like Mickey Mouse! Derek was the next name in my head!

Interviewing Author Carl David Nuttall

Interviewing Author Carl David Nuttall Q.1 when did you decide you were going to write a book? A. Bizarrely, I first decided to write stories after speaking to my work colleagues. I briefly mentioned that I made stories up for my son and it was suggested that I write them down so as not to forget them. From there I just kept on writing and now I have self-published six books. Q.2 how did you come up with the name of your books  A.  Coming up with the name for my first book was easy really! They are short story compilations so that was the first part done, then the second part was just a catchy title surrounding the fact that all of the stories contained animals. "Short Stories For Kids: Amazing Animal Adventures" just seemed like the logical choice! Q. 3 what are you working on now for 20 18? A.  Thinking of new stories has taken a bit of a back - burner for now. This is mainly owed to the fact that I am having several tran...

interviewing Author Donna E. Lane

interviewing Author Donna E. Lane   when did you decide you were going to write a book? A.  My first book is called Restored Christianity.  It was birthed from conversations with my oldest son, Hayden Lane, about struggles we were having reconciling what we saw in Scripture with what the church was teaching. Generally accepted common beliefs didn't match the teachings of Jesus or the writings of Paul. After a few years of conversation, we decided to do something about it. Restored Christianity is our attempt to nail "95 Theses" to the door of the church (a la Martin Luther) to challenge these common beliefs and restore the original teachings of Christianity Q.2 how did you come up with the name of your books  A. Usually, the names arise from the content and focus of the book, whatever that might be. I write both fiction and nonfiction and different genres, so my titles are very reflective of the content.  Q3. what are you ...
