TO THE INTERVIEW <3
○○○○○○

Question 1- What is your New Years resolution? 
Heidi- In 2016, I hope I don't do anything too embarrassing. (This sounds like a weird one but as my circle of friends grown, I worry about it more.) 

Question 2- Are you working on anything new for January? 
Heidi- I'm outlining a potential new series for after my duology is over. It's still top secret but I'm having loads of fun with it. 

Question 3- What inspires you most when you write? 
Heidi- I find most of my inspiration from exploration. It could be reading a book or an article, looking at art, trying new foods, or just walking around the city, but things that are new to me always spark my creativity. 

Question 4- What was the HARDEST thing about writing your latest book? 
Heidi- Hands down it was trying to strike a balance so the twists are surprising but also not completely confusing. Time travel--and the loops and swirls of chronology--is tricky stuff!

Question 5- What's your favorite quote?
Heidi- Oh for a muse of fire that would transcend the very heaven of invention!

Question 6- Where do you see yourself in 5 years?
Heidi- Hopefully still here at my desk, answering interesting interview questions and writing more books.

Question 7- Where are you from?
Heidi- A valley on the North Shore of Oahu, and a house that no longer exists. 

Question 8- If you could work with ANY author this year, who would you want it to be? 
Heidi- Oh gosh. Sir Terry but he's gone. Anne Ursu is a close second.

Question 9- What are a few books you want to read this year (2016) or What genre do you like to read most? 
(Author can choose either question--freebie)
Heidi- Ohhhh man I've already read so many great ones on out debut author ARC tours, but a couple I haven't yet read but am really excited to are WHERE FUTURES END by Parker Peevyhouse and THE SQUARE ROOT OF SUMMER by Harriet Reuter Hapgood. Bot are time bendy books, one sci-fi and the other more contemp, though my favorite genre is usually fantasy, so I'm also super psyched about THE STAR TOUCHED QUEEN and OF FIRE AND STARS. 

Question 10- What's ONE thing your really looking forward to? 
My launch party. I'm doing a co-party with my friend and fellow debut Kelly Zekas and so we get to celebrate together, which is the very best way to celebrate.
