Character #2: Maverek // Blogging Schedule

 Hey!

I haven't even posted since the blog tour (which was so much fun!), but I'm finally back with the next character interview and what I *hope* will be a blogging schedule I can keep up with! First off, the schedule:

I'm going to try to post every Tuesday morning, with posts on Fridays sometimes. With school, writing, and life . . . who knows how often those Friday posts will come.

Now, on to interviewing Maverek! He isn't overly thrilled about this, but he agreed to try. *sighs* Finally.

Here goes!

Abby: Hey, Maverek! I'm so glad you could come!

Maverek: *smiles slightly* Only because you and Briannon begged me.

Abby: Well, I appreciate it! I'll try to keep this shorter than Bree's.

Maverek: Thank you.

Abby: Okay, to start us off, what does your name mean?

Maverek: In your time, it means "independent." I think that meaning was invented somewhat recently, though.

Abby: I think so. But, hey, it fits you! Maybe too well.

Maverek: I suppose it does.

Abby: What about your theme song?

Maverek: *clears throat* Briannon informed me that it is "Heart of Stone" by Britt Nicole.

Abby: And do you think it fits?

Maverek: Next question.

Abby: Okay. Well . . . what is your favorite flavor of ice cream?

Maverek: I . . . I don't even know. Dark chocolate, maybe.

Abby: That makes sense. *smiles* Favorite restaurant?

Maverek: I don't like the idea of eating out.

Abby: I didn't think you would. It's not my favorite thing to do, either. Grocery store?

Maverek: Where do these questions even come from? I wasn't expecting . . . this.

Abby: *grins* A friend of mine. It's a lot better than if I came right out and asked you what your biggest fear is, right?

Maverek: Are those the kinds of questions you had planned? In that case, I'm very grateful to your friend.

Abby: *chuckles* Well . . . that is a good question for an interview like this. But I knew you wouldn't answer it anyway. Anyway, back to the grocery store.

Maverek: Isn't it simpler to just hunt and find your own food?

Abby: Well, there is that . . . Here's an easier one. Favorite animal.

Maverek:  Maybe a Silk Wolf. Or Range Dog. What you call them depends on where you're from.

Abby: Care to explain why that's your favorite animal?

Maverek: No.

Abby: Okay. Next question. What's your favorite color?

Maverek: What I think you call a "navy blue."

Abby: Yes, that fits you! Favorite sound?

Maverek: Silence. Or, at least the kind of silence you hear when you're outside late at night. When the insects are chirping and the owls are calling, but it still sounds like silence.

Abby: Ah, yes. What's your favorite hobby?

Maverek: Hunting, probably. I guess you could count that as a hobby, even though I did it to feed my family.

Abby: Do you like to read or write?

Maverek: Not often. I try to avoid reading aloud, and I almost never write.

Abby: I would ask more, but . . .

Maverek: You know I wouldn't answer?

Abby: Right. Well, those are all the questions I have for you! Thank you so much for joining me today!


Well, I hope y'all enjoyed that! See y'all next time!

The Writerly Sibling Tag

Welcome back for another tag!! Tags are so fun, aren't they? :D Rule One: Thank the blogger who tagged you & provide a link to their post. So, uh, Katja stole this post from someone who stole this post from someone who stole this post. So I'm just keeping the tradition going! :D But you can read Katja's post here. Thanks, girl! Rule Two: Answer the inquires, including any ones added by means of rule six. Rule Three: Always use your own characters. No exception, unless you don’t actually have sibling characters (in which case you need to go write up some) or you don’t write (in which case you need to start ASAP). Rule Four: Tag three other bloggers. Rule Five: If you happen to have any siblings who blog, they are automatically tagged & cannot count towards your three. Rule Six: Add one question or prompt to the list of questions the person before you answered relating to siblings &/or characters. Answer the question, and provide a list of all the questions of

Fonts & Titles: Book Cover Design Crash Course - Part 1

Welcome to day one in my new three-part series!  For three Tuesdays in a row, I want to share some tips about the incredible art of designing book covers. I've spent hours and hours researching, observing, critiquing, experimenting with, stressing over, and having fun with book cover design. And I'm still not tired of it. Matter of fact, I spent hours yesterday making sample covers for this blog post, knowing full and well that there wasn't even a story to go with any of them. However, for a lot of y'all, stressing for hours over the perfect book cover probably  isn't  your idea of fun.  But that doesn't mean you get to skip doing it. I know that a lot of people will tell you that you should always  hire a professional to create your cover. And I'm not saying that isn't a good idea.  But I know that professional book covers are expensive, and that a lot of indie authors don't have a couple hundred dollars lying around to buy one. So, hopefully, I can

Stop the Rain: Release Tour

    ONE OF MY FAVORITE BOOKS RELEASES TOMORROW!!!!!!!!  Okay, now that we have that out of the way. 😅 I met Kassie at The King's Daughters' Writing Camp back in July. And, through that, I got the chance to beta read her newest book, Stop the Rain . And . . . wow. Y'all need to read this. And, tomorrow, y'all finally can! Now, enough of my rambling—let's get to the good stuff! Kindle | Paperback | Goodreads | Blog He left his entire world in Iraq. So why did the war follow him home? Harley Keane and his best friend Nigel were just kids when 9/11 rocked their world and changed their lives forever. When they're finally old enough to join the Army, all their childhood dreams seem about to come true. But war wasn't supposed to be like this. A kid's dream isn't supposed to become a living nightmare. Fellow soldiers aren't supposed to bleed out in front of your eyes. Back home, safe and unwounded, Harley feels anything but. Why would God spare him w
