Interview & Giveaway with Jessica Subject


Hi Jessica, Welcome to Books-n-Kisses.  I am very excited to have you here today to talk about your new book Beneath the Starry Sky.
Jessica: Thank you so much! It’s a pleasure to be here.
Q1) Tell us a little about yourself.
Jessica: I’m an author, and also a mother and wife. Most of my stories I write are science fiction romance, but Beneath the Starry Sky is a contemporary romance. I enjoy reading as well, most subgenres of romance, thrillers, and more.
Q2) Describe Beneath the Starry Sky in 140 characters or less.
Jessica: For both Tamara and Josh, letting go is the first step to love…with a little help from Madame Eve.
Q3) How did you come up with the idea for this story?
Jessica: The heroine, Tamara is the best friend of Carrie from Celestial Seduction. After CS was published, I had to write Tamara’s story. She wouldn’t leave me alone until I did. J
Q4) What did you find most challenging about writing this story?
Jessica: I always find it hard to evoke the same emotions to the readers that I feel with my characters, but with my editor, I think I managed to do so.
Q5) Have you always wanted to be an author?
Jessica: No, not always, but looking back, I should have seen this career path all along. I’ve been writing lesson plans when playing school, newsletters for my youth group and the pet supply store I used to work at for years. I even wrote my first romance story in grade seven. Just over three years ago, I sat down to pen a story for my daughter, and I haven’t stopped.
Q6) What do you do when you are not writing?
Jessica: Spending time with my family and reading, mostly.
Q7) Favorite book and why?
Jessica: Oh, I hate choosing just one, and my answer changes every month. LOL The most recent novel I added to my “favorite reads of 2011” was The Hunger Games by Suzanne Collins. I’ve owned the trilogy for some time, but with the urging of a friend, finally read it. Plus, I like to read books before their movies come out. I loved this book as it is non-stop action from the very beginning, filled with intense emotions (which I love), and unforgettable characters.
Q8) Favorite inspirational quote and why?
Jessica:  Remain orderly in your life so you can remain free and chaotic in your work – Thom Yorke This is what I strive for everyday.
Q9) What is your current work in progress?
Jessica: I’m working on book two in my Mark of the Stars series. Plus, I have a couple other shorter things on the go.
Q10) Anything else you would like to share with us?
Jessica: I love to hear from my readers! You can find me on twitter @jsubject, facebook, Google +, and Goodreads.
Thanks again for having me today!
