Lovely interview. May Anthea Lawson be as successful as Ilona Andrews!

And a big thank you to Alison H, because the questions aren’t standard and therefore get interesting answers, too. Great idea!

Whew, that’s a long interview! Guess with the two of us we have twice as much to say~

As for virtual worlds, Anthea finds she prefers the ones in her head. But between looking at chapters, Lawson likes to get some battlegrounding in. Also, being under contract and deadline shifts the priorities of our spare time a little. Ok, a lot!

Thanks for the comments, thanks Alyson for the fun interview, and thanks DA for running this series. And Kim, I’m totally saving the seat next to me for you!

Fortunately, Passionate is already on it’s way to me because this interview made me even more eager to read it. I’m fascinated by husband/wife writing teams. There seems to be so much potential in that dynamic.

Anthea has done some tricky things with the lighting in the love scenes that reinforce the wounded hero's emotional journey.

Sounds intriguing! And the Cinderella book also sounds good to this fairy tale fan. I’ll be on the lookout for these as well.

ok…it was only World of Warcraft because of my son. I was actually addicted to…shh…Rayman. And before that it was Dig-Dug, which was my all time fav arcade game in high school….waaay back in the day when you had to go to an actual ‘hub’ to play video games. :)

I thought World of Warcraft was the biggest time suck in the universe. How can you be addicted to that and manage to write anything? ;)

World of Warcraft and chocolate! A woman after my own heart!!! :) I didn’t realize Lawson wasn’t going to be at the ceremony. Bummer! We’ll totally sit together though and hold hands, fidget, what have you. :)

Congrats on the nominee, my friend!!!
