Many of you may know Brenda Drake as the mastermind behind such online contests as Pitch Madness, #pitmad, and Pitch Wars. She’s an incredible supporter of writers of all genres, as well as a writer herself, and I am thrilled to be part of the book tour for her new release, TOUCHING FATE.
Since I have Brenda on the blog, I also wanted to do a quick Thinking in Threes feature with her. Read on to find out more about her cool new book and an amazing giveaway (Kindle Fire!)
Where are the top three places you love to write?
The top three places I love to write are at my desk top, on my treadmill desk (the hubby built it), or in a coffee shop or book store coffee shop.
Planner, Pantser or Hybrid? Give us three insights into your drafting process.
I would say I’m a hybrid. I prepare graphs for both the external and internal plots for the book. I also like to have a “cheat” notebook filled with pics of characters and settings in the book. Music plays a big role in getting my graphs together and setting the mood for the story.
What are the top three movies based on books that you would recommend?
This is so easy. The Harry Potter movies, The Hunger Games movies, and the Divergent movies. Loved them all!
Brenda Drake grew up the youngest of three children, an Air Force brat, and the continual new kid at school. Her fondest memories growing up is of her eccentric, Irish grandmother’s animated tales, which gave her a strong love for storytelling. So it was only fitting that she would choose to write stories with a bend toward the fantastical. When she’s not writing or hanging out with her family, she haunts libraries, bookstores, and coffee shops, or reads someplace quiet and not at all exotic (much to her disappointment).a Rafflecopter giveaway//widget-prime.rafflecopter.com/launch.js
