Have you always wanted to write?<\/h3>\n<div style=\"text-align: center;\">I have always wanted to write from a very young age. I was given a pad and pen and told to write a story when staying over my grandmother&#8217;s house, so she could watch her tv shows in peace. It was there that the writing bug bit me.<\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: center;\"><\/div>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: center;\">3. How do you choose your book\u2019s title(s)?<\/h3>\n<div><\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: center;\">I like whacky or fun titles that are different from most. I try to aim for ones that stand out in some way, usually with a bit of humour attached.<\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: center;\"><\/div>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: center;\">4. How do you fit writing into your everyday life?<\/h3>\n<div style=\"text-align: center;\">\u00a0During a weekday, I&#8217;ll write in the afternoons and evenings. During the weekends, I write from the early morning until I am tired. As I have an iPhone, I use the Scrivener app when I am at work sometimes.<\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: center;\"><\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: center;\">5. How do you handle criticism?<\/h3>\n<div style=\"text-align: center;\">If the criticism is constructive, I&#8217;ll pay attention and make notes for later. If it is very negative to the point of insulting, I will simply ignore it.<\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: center;\"><\/div>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: center;\">6. Describe your perfect character to me<\/h3>\n<div style=\"text-align: center;\">A perfect character is a flawed one people can find a way to relate with. Superheroes are boring to me now, and I don&#8217;t believe in strong characters of any gender. If a character has an interesting enough arc or journey, I&#8217;m sold.<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: center;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/BurntScribe\">You can find Justin on Twitter.<\/a><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Author Q&amp;A with Justin Knight *This post contains affiliate links*<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":112,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_jetpack_newsletter_access":"","_jetpack_dont_email_post_to_subs":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_tier_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paywalled_content":false,"_jetpack_feature_clip_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":"","jetpack_publicize_message":"Author Q&A with @BurntScribe","jetpack_publicize_feature_enabled":true,"jetpack_social_post_already_shared":true,"jetpack_social_options":{"image_generator_settings":{"template":"highway","default_image_id":0,"font":"","enabled":false},"version":2},"jetpack_post_was_ever_published":false,"_wpscppro_dont_share_socialmedia":false,"_wpscppro_custom_social_share_image":0,"_facebook_share_type":"","_twitter_share_type":"","_linkedin_share_type":"","_pinterest_share_type":"","_linkedin_share_type_page":"","_instagram_share_type":"","_medium_share_type":"","_threads_share_type":"","_google_business_share_type":"","_selected_social_profile":[],"_wpsp_enable_custom_social_template":false,"_wpsp_social_scheduling":{"enabled":false,"datetime":null,"platforms":[],"status":"template_only","dateOption":"today","timeOption":"now","customDays":"","customHours":"","customDate":"","customTime":"","schedulingType":"absolute"},"_wpsp_active_default_template":true},"categories":[14],"tags":[9,13,12,11],"class_list":["post-449","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-author-interviews","tag-book","tag-indie-author","tag-self-pub","tag-self-published"],"jetpack_publicize_connections":[],"jetpack_likes_enabled":true,"jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/elizabethhollandauthor.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/Black-and-White-Beauty-Quote-Pinterest-Graphic.png","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/elizabethhollandauthor.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/449","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/elizabethhollandauthor.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/elizabethhollandauthor.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/elizabethhollandauthor.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/elizabethhollandauthor.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=449"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/elizabethhollandauthor.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/449\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":451,"href":"https:\/\/elizabethhollandauthor.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/449\/revisions\/451"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/elizabethhollandauthor.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/media\/112"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/elizabethhollandauthor.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=449"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/elizabethhollandauthor.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=449"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/elizabethhollandauthor.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=449"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
