We’ve asked them a few questions and the answers for each question from all six of them will be published as a series. Let’s check out question #9

Who could/would help a writer to sell books? 

Chris Lange 

Fans. I’m a huge fan myself, I love my favorite authors and I’m sure they love me too.

Leanore Elliott

Your fans. Many of mine have sold lots of books for me.
Jennifer Theriot

I think getting your name out there is paramount. Word of mouth and networking .  If you have a good product to sell, then don’t be afraid to get youself out in the book buying world. Every famous writer had to start somewhere. Just do what feels right. ?

Maggie Nash

That’s a tough one…I think the best thing to help sell books is for the writer to write more books!  Reviews also help..but their needs to be a high volume.  Positive or negative, it doe t matter really.  My lowest rating book continues to be my best seller.
Morticia Knight

Readers are the answer. I know I tell my friends, ‘OMG – you have to read this book/series ! ‘ and they buy it based on my recoommendation. I do the same thing, and most of the time they’re right. There are many books and authors I never would’ve known about if they hadn’t been recommended to me. I can’t think of a better way to sell books.

Sandy Wolters

That’s a good question that I just don’t have the answer to.

Sexy Six Authors Q&A #8:What are your reasons for writing?

We’ve asked them a few questions and the answers for each question from all six of them will be published as a series. Let’s check out question #8

What are your reasons for writing? 

Chris Lange 

To unleash the stories in my head and let my readers’ dreams come true.

Leanore Elliott

I must. Have to. To live and breathe.

Jennifer Theriot

Writing is therapy for me.  As long as my characters keep talking to me, I’ll continue to write.

Maggie Nash

I love stories, and they keep talking to me until I get them down in print!

Morticia Knight

It’s the one thing in my life I’ve always received the greatest satisfaction from. Maybe it’s because I tend to be reclusive, or I’ve always been lost in my head – hard to say. But I can’t imagine living my life without crafting new stories and new worlds. It would be boring to me.
Sandy Wolters

The characters won’t leave me alone until I tell their story.  I start visualizing these people I’ve never met in different scenarios, and it doesn’t stop until I write it down.

Sexy Six Authors Q&A #7:What do you consider most important in  a novel – literary value or story?

We’ve asked them a few questions and the answers for each question from all six of them will be published as a series. Let’s check out question #6

What do you consider most important in  a novel – literary value or story? 

Chris Lange 

The story. Always the story.

Leanore Elliott

STORY…hands down and I am an Pro editor too, so that will tell you how important this answer is.

Jennifer Theriot

I’d have to say the story. If you have a good story, then you HAVE literary value – verdad ?

Maggie Nash

Story is everything. Most people read for entertainment, and escape!

Morticia Knight

The story, without hesitation. I’m not here to flex my literary muscles, I want to entertain.

Sandy Wolters

In my humble opinion, the story should be uppermost. The reader needs to be engaged with the characters in order to care about them.  If my books do that, the literary value for that reader is reached and that’s all that is really important to me.

Sexy Six Authors Q&A #6: If you could be transported into one of your stories as a character, would you or would you stay as far away from it as possible?

If you could be transported into one of your stories as a character, would you or would you stay as far away from it as possible?  

Chris Lange 

No way I’d live the life of any of my characters. Their wild adventures are passionate but also too dangerous for a quiet person like me.

Leanore Elliott

No….I would jump in and live that life like a dammed rockstar ! lol

Jennifer Theriot

I’d LOVE to be transported into one of my stories – HELL yes !

Maggie Nash

This is showing my kinky side, but I’d like to be a character in Kinky Bet.😜. In fact the heroine…Erica.  Who wouldn’t want to end up with a sexy Irishman fulfilling all of your fantasies 😊

Morticia Knight

If I could go to the 1920’s in either my Gin & Jazz or Hampton Road Club novels, I’d be there in a heartbeat. But I’d have to be a guy, so it would also need to be a gender transport !

Sandy Wolters

Yes, I would be happy to be transported into my books! It is my goal that readers get lost in the pages of my books and enjoy themselves enough to feel they are no longer reading, but living in the stories and falling in love with the characters.
