StoryDam Author Interviews

One of the things I love about the StoryDam online writing community is its diversity. Although we are a small community, our expertise spans from unpublished beginners to those who have had multiple books published. We have those who self publish and those who go by what is deemed the "traditional route" to publishing. We , of course, vary in our genres of interest, but also in age and life experience (my Camp NaNoWriMo buddy, BookSquirt - who I met through StoryDam - is a teenager who lives and works on a farm with goats!). For this reason, our Thursday night Twitter chats are always enlightening, offering up a myriad of perspectives on our one common ground: writing.

After about a year of my involvement with the community, the one thing I have wanted to offer up to our community is a chance to really learn about each other and the project(s) we are working on. If you have been in an hour long topical twitter chat, then I don't have to tell you why there just hasn't been enough time to do this yet. So, when Morgan Dragonwillow, StoryDam team leader asked for ideas for reviving the StoryDam website, I proposed that we include interviews and twitterviews of our own community members that have been published. I am excited to say that not only did she love this idea, but before we were done with our conversation, we had our first volunteer, YA author Patricia Lynne,  to be interviewed!

Have you joined StoryDam for a chat yet?

Are you involved in another online writing community?

If you had the chance to interview a published author, what would you ask?
