Justin (justinbienvenue) | 3047 comments Hey Everyone,
I run a page called Indie Author Tactics where I interview fellow indie authors. Well I've decided to get a little more specific and interviewed 13 authors in the Horror genre. I interviewed six indie authors as well as seven from Sinister Grin Press.

As a part of these interviews I am also putting together "The Top Ten Amazing Quotes From the World of Horror" which will be a few quotes from their horror novel they wish to share. These quotes will create an article piece that I will also share on my page.

Here are the list of authors as well as the page where you can find their interviews:

-Quentin Wallace
-Scott Baker
-Ryan Willox
-J.M Rankin
-Sangeeta Mahapatra
-Joey Webb

7 authors from Sinister Grin Press:
-Brian Moreland
-David Bernstein
-Sisters Michelle Garza and Melissa Larson
-Jonathan Janz
-Hunter Shea
-Ronald Malfi

Sinister Grin has given me a list of authors to interview so I am for the moment closing this thread. I will interview 12 instead of 10. I have the six authors who requested here plus the additional six fro Sinister Grin.

I thank everyone who requested an interview, I will be in touch shortly.

Stay tuned for these interviews as I have a feeling they will be great!

Stay tuned!


message 21: by Justin (new)

Justin (justinbienvenue) | 3047 comments I am still waiting to hear back from Sinister Grin Press about the interviews I interviewed. I will give it a few days and if I haven't heard back I will just go ahead and post the interviews with the authors I acquired on here.

The idea was it was going to be one big mass interview post with 2 posts a day. Hopefully it will all work out, i'll keep you all informed with any updates.

Justin (justinbienvenue) | 3047 comments Update: I have heard back from Sinister Grin Press and I will begin the interviews starting tomorrow. I will start with author Brian Moreland and Quentin Wallace.

Eva John If being interviewed is based on top sales or several high review ratings, then I'll have to pay my dues, as it may be a right of passage of sorts.

However, if you are looking for horror authors to interview for all around perspective, what gets into our twisted brains, how do we come up with the ideas, etc. then I hope you will consider me at some point.

My breakout novel, CRONE, is just getting noticed after a bitterly disappointing 1st quarter. I was dumb enough to rely on FB ads, a total newbie move. Received my first review from fellow GR author/reviewer, Linda Strong, and I could not have been more honored and humbled all at once with her 5-star rating.

This is a great forum for authors to connect. I wish you well even if we never interview. Although I really hope we do.

Don't worry about the slow start, Maria. Just keep writing and getting more work out. This is the long game. :)
