I'm thrilled to have Sonny Zae here today to ask a couple of question for the Love Elixir Antidote blog tour!
Check out the giveaway below!
~~~oOo~~~
Who would
you say is your favorite character(s) from your books, and why? What is it
about this character that makes him/her tick?
I cannot say Sonny
Zaeffom, naturally, as that would be nakedly self-serving. I do not say that out of a false modesty, as
I do not possess modesty of any sort. I
would say such a thing if the editor would not take a sword to my words—and
might well get carried away once committed to hacking.
I suppose it would
be Pugloria, if for nothing more than her unshakeable belief in her own
attractiveness. She is undeterred by
rejections and unwavering in her pursuit, even though a wild sow's face would
be more pleasant to stare into.
Pugloria's teeth are better than a wild sow's in that they are not quite
tusks. Her hair is the colour of fall
leaves after they have fallen and begun to rot, clumped together in damp piles
under the trees. She would not pause in
her pursuit even if a mirror were thrust in front of her. Her face might shatter the mirror in advance
of throwing back her malign visage. So
one simply has to admire such blind, ignorant determination. What she lacks in good qualities she makes up
for in bad qualities.
Do you have a schedule of when you
write?
No, just generally
in the morning, when I am more creative.
That is also when I come up with my best schemes for liberating coins
from the many dullards who surround me.
In addition, I
grab time when I can get it, and think up good stories and good lies for when I
might next need them. When being pursued
by an angry shopkeeper or husband is no time for conjuring a good excuse. So I dream up a healthy stock of them, even
though I detest performing work in advance.
That is not entirely accurate, however, as I detest work generally.
What elements do you think make a great
story line?
Interesting
characters, characters with real and deep flaws, persons who are thrust into
situations they are not equipped to deal with.
But I am jesting
again, as the best story lines are those that tell about me and my life. I could talk about myself forever and never
lack for stories to recite—including true ones.
Have you gotten feedback from family
about your book(s)? What do they think?
They give me strange, side-long glances, then suddenly remember
some urgent appointment or activity. I
should rent out my services as the world's most effective memory aid.
Where do you as an
author draw the line on gory descriptions and/or erotic content?
I draw the line
around it, and encircle it. Then, I add
arrows to the material, plus stars and other symbols to draw peoples' attention
to my incredible creativity.
