Joining Authonomy was my first step into the wider writing community. I know I’ve raved about the site before, but it really was a fantastic place at the time I was there. (Well, at the time I was active, anyway – I’m still actually there, but I haven’t logged in in ages.) Anyway, as a result of getting to know so many other authors, I’ve been introduced to some truly wonderful friends and some truly magical books.
Spindle, the first book in the Two Monarchies series, is one such book:
With me today is W.R. Gingell, author of the fabulously entertaining Spindle. Read on to find out more about the author, and then stay tuned because tomorrow I’ll be reviewing the book!
KK: Hi there, W.R.! Please – tell us about yourself.
WRG: I’m a Christian, a Tasmanian, and a lover of anything to do with bacon. I have a rather hobbitish Hubby (and the photos from Hobbiton to prove it!) and one lovely little dog who knows it’s a lost cause to beg food from me but still tries anyway.
I love jigsaw puzzles and knitting, and though I love my violin I do NOT practice as I ought to practice.
The word most often used to describe me when I was growing up was ‘dreamer’, though with my parents, the phrase ‘off with the fairies’ was probably more often used.
KK: I’m the exact same way with my flute. I love it, but it spends most of its time lying lonely and sad in a cupboard. *sigh*
Anyway…Tell us about Spindle! What’s it all about?
Suddenly they all died. The end.
