Guest Interview, Lisa Jones (Audrey Grant)
I asked Lisa to do an interview for the blog. A story Lisa's mother shared with her is included in A Circle of Sisters. Known in the writing world as Audrey Grant, Lisa's first book, Curse of the Jaguar was recently published. I'm so excited for you to get to know her a little better.
J: What are some of your hobbies and interests?
L: Writing, reading, scrapbooking, crafting, jewelry-making, and anything Interior Design/architectural related.
J: What is the most unusual thing you've ever done?
L: I'm actually pretty boring and don't like to go out of my comfort zone. Even my husband couldn't think of anything unusual I've done. Sorry.
J: If you could go on a dream vacation, were would you go?
L: Europe probably. I'd love to see all the sites and old architecture.
J: You’ve mentioned that you like interior design. What got you interested in that and what is your favorite part about it?
4. I do love interior design. I started enjoying decorating and designing floor plans when I was in ninth grade. From there on I knew I wanted to go into that field. I got my degree in interior design from LDS Business College (where I met my husband). I love everything about design but most of all, I think I love creating something beautiful.
J: I know you’ve recently published a book. Would you be willing to tell us a little about it and maybe what inspired you?
L: The book I just published is called, Curse of the Jaguar. It's a paranormal, (clean) romance. I started writing stories back when I was thirteen but never finished the two books I started then. This one I started four years ago and finally published in November 2012. I'm not sure if one particular thing inspired me to start writing this book, but the legend of the were-jaguar I read on wikipedia.org inspired a lot of it. I have over a dozen more stories for books either in my head or on my computer as we speak. To read the legend of the were-jaguar that inspired me, you can go to my website: http://www.audreygrantbooks.com
You can also read the first chapter of Curse of the Jaguar for free on my website. I am currently working on the sequel to it and am hoping to be done this summer or early fall. (One can never tell).
