Could you tell us a bit about – first as a writer, then as a reader – what the pull is for you when it comes to Paranormal/Supernatural characters & stories?
LRH: I just don’t enjoy stories without a paranormal element. I believe in the paranormal, have had inexplicable things happen to me, and frankly the world makes more sense to me with fantastical things about. I’m so compelled to the divine mystery of all we don’t know, can’t see or understand, the paranormal is a source of endless fascination for me, it is my muse and keeps me writing book after book.
The two main characters in the series are Natalie & Lord Denbury, could you give us first words that describe both characters?
LRH: Natalie is brave, opinionate and feisty and does not let her condition of Selective Mutism keep her from being a true hero. Lord Denbury is dashing, elegant, fiercely intelligent and resourceful. And he’s utterly devoted to Natalie.
And lastly, how about a fun question? Being that it’s the scariest time of the year – Halloween – what’s your favorite?

GIVEAWAY!
How the Crossroads Tour Giveaway works
All the authors got together and decided, instead of
each blog getting one or two titles to giveaway - they'd
have a single grand prize - a real doozie. With that in
mind each blogger is asked to encourage readers to answer
the daily trivia/research question on the tour main page.
(http://judithgraves.com/events/the-crossroads-tour/crossroads-2012/) At the end of the tour all
answers have to be emailed to judithgraves@ymail.com by midnight on the
29th.
So, it's your job, to
head over to the mail tour page I've linked above, read
the question and go find the answer in the posts for that
day. Make sure you get your answers in by the deadline -
October 29th at Midnight!
Entries will be put in a drawing and a winner chosen
randomly.
And I
bet you're wondering what the heck this amazing prize is?
How about a FREE KINDLE PRELOADED with an eBOOK from each
of the Crossroads authors???
The more questions you answer, the better, so be sure
to check back each day!
Any questions? Please send them my way!
The paranormal helps us explore ideas that are just too scary in the harsh light of reality:)
