Crystal, thanks for stopping by today and bringing Bellezza along with you. Please sit down and enjoy this interview! Bellezza agreed to play nice for a short amount of time, so hurry and read, and then go to the Rafflecopter giveaway at the end.
Bellezza
takes a seat, honeydew ringlets spilling loosely over thin shoulders. No more
than thirteen, she glares through chocolate eyes that bear as much gravity as a
black-hole. Her cheeks twitch upward in a sneer-smile hybrid.
1.
If
you had a free day with no responsibilities and your only mission was to enjoy
yourself, what would you do?
*blinks in horror* Die. Maybe
I’d have to start plotting my own death from boredom.
2.
What
impression do you make on people when they first meet you?
*grinning
maliciously* They are charmed. Aren’t you charmed? *batting eyes* Am I not the
very image of a porcelain doll?
3.
What
are you most proud of about your life?
No man or
cage can hold me. I am free. Like the wind.
4.
Do
you think you’ve turned out the way your parents expected?
My parents
had no expectations for me. Weak things that they were.
5.
You’re
saying they’re dead?
Killed old
pappy myself.
6.
Can
I ask why?
*grin fades*
Depends. Do you like horror stories? *brows lower* Keep on this line of
questioning and your life will be one.
7.
What
would you like it to say on your tombstone?
I will have
no tombstone. I will never die.
8.
What’s
the worst thing you’ve ever done to someone?
*cocks her
head grinning* I sent a woman as strong
as myself to the Soulless. And may she suffer for eternity.
9.
Why?
*grimaces*
She stabbed me with gold. Do you know what that feels like? Imagine acid—liquid
acid beneath your skin. Now times that by one hundred.
10.
What
are you most afraid of?
If you tell
anyone this, I will dangle your innards from the nearest flagpole. Understood?
*squints, pointing with a threatening finger* I am irredeemable. In the end I
will be alone. But I must continue in my mission, for myself, for those who
have suffered. I am a product of my circumstances, a tool no loving or
respectable person can be.
Author Bio: Crystal, author of MOONLESS, is a former composer/writer for Black Diamond Productions. She can be found practicing her brother-induced ninja skills while teaching children or madly typing about fantastic and impossible creatures. She has lived from coast to coast and now calls Florida home with her creative husband, three littles, and “friend” (a.k.a. the zombie locked in her closet). Secretly, she dreams of world domination and a bottomless supply of cheese. You can find her on her blog and Facebook, or follow her on Twitter.
