Susan Spann and I met through The Debutante Ball. No, neither of us are party dress or tiara types, but we know a good thing when we see it. We got in on that action, learned a lot, and met a slew of great women authors, including—ta…

By Lori | Three questions series | No Comments

Have you ever known someone casually and then suddenly, by accident, had the chance to get to be better friends with him? That happened to me with Alex Segura the evening of the 2013 Anthony Awards in Long Beach, California. I hadn’t made plans to meet anyone…

Interview: Why I’m a Big Fan of Jennifer Kincheloe

By Lori | Fangirl, Three questions series | No Comments

Three Questions with…Triss Stein

By Lori | Three questions series | 4 Comments

Three Questions with… Jenny Milchman

By Lori | Fangirl, Three questions series | One Comment

If you don’t know who Jenny Milchman is, then you haven’t been to a bookstore lately. I don’t just mean that her three novels, including the brand-new As Night Falls, are well-stocked in our nation’s book nooks. I mean Jenny herself is there. Known for her round-the-country…

Three Questions with…James W. Ziskin

By Lori | Fangirl, Three questions series | No Comments

I met Jim Ziskin through Seventh Street Books. His excellent Ellie Stone mystery series—set in 1960 upstate New York and featuring a spitfire “girl reporter”— is published by them. I didn’t get to read the first book in the series, Styx & Stone, until this year and…
