Q & A with the Author
********************
Today we are talking
with Quinn O’Shea, the Male protagonist of August Moon.
T: Hello Quinn,
Thanks for chatting with us today.
Q: Thanks for having
me. I just want to warn you I’m kind of a one word answer guy, unless you’re a
close friend or family member.
T: Okay, no problem
Quinn. How about I ask you one or two personal questions and then we just do
some rapid-fire ones, there usually good for one word answer type guys.
Q: Sounds good, one
condition though. No questions about Raven, I just can’t go there, right now.
T: I’m sorry to hear
that, but I understand. I hear you are a lifeguard in the summers and you are
also an exceptional Surfer. Want to tell us a little bit of your history with
the ocean and your surf board?
Q: Sure, let’s see I
started surfing when I was around seven or eight years old. My Dad taught me
and my three brothers. Surfing is sort of a rite of passage when you grow up in
Long Beach. Even if you never become any good at it, if you’re a local you
tried it at some point. Before that I was on a boogie board, ya know the foam
ones that you lay on your stomach and ride the waves in.
T: Do you play any
other sports? Maybe Ice Hockey, like your best friend MaryKate. Speaking of MaryKate,
what’s it like having a girl for a best friend?
Q: No, I don’t play
any other sports. Okay so first of all I
don’t call her MaryKate, she’s just MK to me and having a girl for a best
friend is way better than having a guy best friend. Girls are just more…. I
don’t know…. Rational. Well MK is anyway.
T: Ready for those
rapid-fire Questions?
Q: Go…
T: Books or Movies?
Q: Movies
T: Coke or Pepsi?
Q: Neither, I drink
ice tea
T: Vanilla or
Chocolate?
Q: Vanilla, but
sometimes I like a twist
T: Hawaii or
California?
Q: Hawaii, best waves
T: Fast car or Fast
Motorcycle
Q: Both
T: Alright Quinn, I
won’t torture you with any more Questions. I’m sorry about your situation with
Raven. I guess we will have to read your story in August Moon to see how things
turn out. Thanks a lot for taking the time to talk with us.
Q: Sure thing, have a
good one.

About the Author: I am a Young Adult Author, My
first Novel August Moon will be released in late spring 2014. Besides writing I
love to read Romance, YA, ChicLit, Fantasy, Paranormal and a good auto
biography never hurt anyone. My other greatest passion is animals, I love them
all, but I have a weakness for dogs, I wish I could save every single one that
needs saving. I have a dog Tank, he’s my heart and he’s a big… mush, I bite his
face all day long and he lets me. I also love mini pigs, one day I will have
one. My fiancĂ© Chris doesn’t think so, but what does he know. I think I’m an
amateur photographer, but really I just like to take pictures and sometimes
they come out really good. I love Riding on the back of Chris’s Harley, it’s my
favorite form of transportation. I’m obsessed with the Twilight Saga, those
books literally changed my life. Tattoos are sexy, I have seven. I pretty much
love anything with a skull on it. My thumb is very green, just ask my air
plants. I can cook my ass off, just ask Chris. I enjoy being active in all
different ways- hiking, biking, camping, taking Tank for a 3 mile walk, working
out or sitting on the couch all day catching up on my DVR recordings. I love to
dress up and wear make up and accessories (I have a ring addiction, that I
think I might need some counseling for) and heels, but I can get dirty on a
camping trip or hang out in my sweats and a tee all day, I will even walk Tank
in Pj’s with no make -up on(yep, you heard me, Pj’s, no make up- outside in
public) I come from a big crazy Italian family and I wouldn’t have it any other
way. And just because I want to give her props, I think Marilyn Monroe is the
sexiest, hottest, bad-ass bitch in the history of bitches ( bitches meaning all
us girls.)
