Berneta Haynes (bernetalhaynes) | 26 comments Hi my fellow authors!

I am an indie author with 1 published novel (LANDRIEN MORISET) and several published articles and short stories. I've always enjoyed reading author interviews because I think it's a fantastic way to highlight new literature and authors. Every author can use more exposure.

I have a column at my website () where I regularly feature writing prompts and writing advice on Fridays, as well as grammar tips and career tips on Mondays and Wednesdays. I'd like to feature more author interviews on my column. For the interviews, I'm interested in authors of all genres (excluding romance and erotica). But I'm especially interested in interviewing authors of Sci-Fi, General Literary Fiction, LGBT themes, African-American themes, and Young Adult Fiction.

*NO CHRISTIAN LITERATURE OR RELIGIOUS-THEMED MATERIAL.*

For all the eager authors out there, if you'd like an interview posted on my column (which I Tweet and post on Facebook and Google+ daily), please drop me a reply here. Thanks!

Berneta L. Haynes

Hi Berneta,

Happy New Year. My name is Thomas Bartlett and I have published one book thus far Americans Bombing Paris a romantic thriller, or a satirical tragedy depending on who you ask. But in reality I think it sits comfortably in General Literary Fiction.
I would love to be interviewed. I have a site as well and would publicise the interview as well through my various social channels.
If this does not interest you no worries. Thanks.

Kind regards,
Thomas

Amber Daniels | 10 comments My brother and I have written a fantasy upper YA novel, and in the process of working on the second one. It's based on Norse Mythology. It has been out for almost a year. We are always looking for ways to let more people know about us. We would be interested in being interviewed if you are interested in us. I think what you are doing is a wonderful way for unknown authors to get some exposure.

message 16: by David (new)

David King | 45 comments Ms. Haynes,
My books generally fit into the genres you say you have an interest in, but my three LGBT novels are also romance novels. Beyond that, I have a futurist horror and a sea-faring fantasy. All 5 can be viewed on my Å·±¦ÓéÀÖ page. If any of them are of sufficient interest to you and your blog, I would be quite happy to be interviewed. If not, then at least thank you for looking.
Thank you,
David King

message 20: by Peter (new)

Peter Difatta | 2 comments Hi Berneta,

I would love to be interviewed, but I realize you have a long list of those interested. If you are still adding to your list, I would be honored.

My current published novel is Finding Pluck. It is a mainstream genre novel, with a main theme supporting pro-equality. You can see more about it at FindingPluck.com. I'm currently working on an anthology of my short stories and another novel.

Thanks for doing this.

J. Devau (imightbethathumanyouknow) | 5 comments How goes it?
I recently published my debut novel Theory of the Atheist DON'T PANIC. It's a sci-fi, not at all religious unless you count the pursuit of perfection in a dystopian society in some strain of that genre. I think gabbing it up with a fellow author would be a ton of fun.


message 24: by Thierry (new)

Thierry Sagnier | 3 comments Hi. I have a couple of novels published, most recently Thirst, which has gotten excellent reviews on Å·±¦ÓéÀÖ. I've been interviewed a number of times and would be honored to be featured in your column. Best, thierry sagnier

Jamie Schulz (thejamieschulz) | 14 comments Hi Berneta,
I have a cowboy dystopian romance coming out in February that I'd love to have an interview for. If you're interested, you can check out the description and cover for the book here:

Here's one of the many wonderful comments readers have sent me after reading this book:
"This is a REALLY good story. I flew through it and whenever I had to put it down, I could not wait to pick it back up again. From beginning to end, I was completely engrossed." - MB Saul, beta reader and blogger.
If you're interested please email or PM me.
Thanks!

I would very much like to be part of your column. What you do sounds fantastic, and encouraging to new authors.

Truth in Death is my first novel, it is a murder mystery suspense and has an LGBT couple. Although they are not the main characters they are integral to the story line.

Truth in Death is centred around Martha, a young women, who's life purpose is to please those around her, finds herself caught up in the murder of a local bar owner. With challenges of their own, her friends seek to find her innocence as they unravel secrets of criminal behaviour.

It would be my absolute pleasure to connect with you, and I look forward to discussing the opportunity further.

Kind regards

Janette Collins

Hi, I'm an indie author and would love to participate in an interview about my newly released post-apocalyptic novel, the Melt. Note: This is not a Mad Max type of story.

Synopsis:
Members of the last tribe of reindeer herders discover a body in the melting permafrost of the northern Mongolian steppe, and the virus dubbed the Red Scourge is unleashed on the world. Unaware of the coming pandemic, Rina and Ethan Hampton shop for their first house in Silver Spring, Maryland, a suburb of Washington D.C. After months of searching, they find the perfect place to start their family, with the added bonus of a bomb shelter that Ethan plans to use as his man cave. Their excitement quickly turns to fear when news of the fast-spreading virus and the havoc it is wreaking around the world becomes public. As the news continues to pour in, the couple realizes the virus is unstoppable. They quickly make provision to survive the plague by locking themselves in the shelter. When they emerge after two months of living in the cramped space, ninety-five percent of the world's population is gone. Their neighborhood lies in ruins, destroyed by a massive storm. Body bags filled with the dead are stacked in the parking lots of local hospitals. All around them, unknown dangers lurk, but the worst danger unexpectedly appears, adding to the trauma they've already experienced.

Leaving the city behind, the couple travels to Harpers Ferry, West Virginia, where they encounter other survivors. They settle into an almost Utopian existence in the town they’ve renamed New Hope until a stranger arrives, causing discord where once there was peace. How the townspeople respond to the threat to their fledgling community will determine their fate - and perhaps the fate of humanity - going forward.

Point of interest:
I started writing this book in the autumn of 2016 and finished the first draft in November 2019. The similarities I found in my recounting of a world-wide pandemic during a real pandemic kind of freaked me out.
