I’ve been tempted by this book for a while now and this was a fabulous interview! Can’t wait to see more from other new authors. I hope I’m not too late to enter for a chance to win a copy.

I’m glad you didn’t alter it to a single genre too! Cross-genres can be so interesting!

I think I will have to pick this one up. I have really gotten into Steampunk and Victorian fantasy lately so this is right up my ally. Thanks

Having read this book, I can say that it is as wonderful as it sounds. Thank you Leanna for giving me a shout-out. You rock (and the book Scandalous Women comes out in 2011).

Love the new feature and this book just sounds so intriguing (as does the author).

The story sounds amazing as does the salon. I’ve heard of it and never knew what it was. A brilliant idea.

A wonderful interview too. Thank you for sharing.

Alyson, thank you so much for this! I’m so honoured to be the inaugural “intro interview”! Thank you Jane and Dear Author for this incredible opportunity. This site is such a great resource.

Thanks everyone for so many kind comments! The Strangely Beautiful series is my every dream come true and I’m so thrilled to share it with you.

Janet,
I LOVE Anne Perry!

For those of you interested in the eBook version, I think it should be out either at the end of this month or early October. I’ll make an announcement on my sites as soon as I have details.

Mora,

Indeed! I played Lucy in Dracula at Cincinnati Shakespeare Company- how neat that you saw me! I’m thrilled you loved it – it remains my very favourite production of all time. (I’ve a great bloody picture on my Facebook and Myspace *s*)

@Heather Massey:
Thank you, Heather–that definitely needed to be pointed out. The mistake is all my mine, and I’ve asked Jane to fix it.

Eye’ve recieved quantiteis of red pencil marks for my perpetual I-E/E-I confusion. :-(

Many apologies to Leanna.

@Heather Massey: I had to hunt for this book at the bookstore. Silly me, I was looking under Hieber and it was under Heiber. Not a great distance on the shelf, but enough for me to start getting irritated that they didn't have it. I have it already so don't enter me.

The title really is striking and I loved the mixing into the storyline of paranormal accounts.

This sounds rather intriguing, and the author is so well spoken! The six-word memoir sold me completely. Oh, and the author’s response to “trigger points” was also just simply lovely. She has such a grasp of imagery.

Well done interview — sometimes these things are so “pat”, but you pulled out some gems and gave the reader a real sense of the author’s personality. :)

ooh, it sounds loverly. And it was a spectacular interview. Sign my up please, as I add this to my tbr list.

Love the new feature. The title alone of this book sounds intriguing.

Not that I wouldn’t mind reading this book, but no need to enter me because my reading pile is overflowing with no end in sight. And at the risk of coming across as totally anal, Ms. Hieber’s last name is spelled wrong (in the tag list, too).

How interesting. I believe I saw Leanna in a production of…Dracula? (I think it was Dracula) by the Cincinnati Shakespeare Company a few years ago. It was one of my favorite theatre experiences. :) I’m definitely picking up her book.

This most definitely just landed on my TTB list! I love how Ms. Hieber says the book is stronger for its cross-genre elements.
