Between the Lines is a podcast that started this year on July 14th. They discuss things that readers and writers would be interested in. On their official Facebook page (https://www.facebook.com/BetweentheLinesPodcast.WR), here is what it says...
I thought it would be fun to introduce my readers to each of these wonderful authors. First up is Author Sian Ann Bessey. She has written 25 books with two more coming soon in 2022. Go to her website to see the books and the wide genre of books she's written. It's quite amazing!
author and a Whitney Award finalist.
Although Sian doesn't have the opportunity to speak Welsh very often anymore, she can still wrap her tongue around, "Llanfairpwllgwyngyllgogerychwyrndrobwllllantysiliogogogoch." She loves to travel and experience other cultures, but when she's home, her favorite activities are spending time with her family, cooking, and reading.
1. How many years have you been writing?
Sian Ann:20 years
2. What were some of your favorite books to write?
Sian Ann:
I've written in several different genres and I've loved the variety. I love historical with a little romance and suspense thrown in, but sometimes its fun to write a contemporary where you can talk about cell phones and airplanes. The Gem Thief was fun to write because I relived a cruise I did with my family. The Heart of the Rebellion was fun to write because it was set where I grew up. I'm really enjoying the Georgian Gentlemen series too.
3. List three things that help you get in the mood to write:
Sian Ann:
-If I've already started a book, rereading the
previous chapter helps.
-If I'm writing a book set in Wales, listening to
Welsh music helps.
-Writing a few notes about what I want to happen
in the next scene helps.
4. Have you ever done a podcast before? What’s your favorite thing about doing a podcast?
Sian Ann:
I've never done a podcast before. My favorite thing is definitely doing it with Traci, Sarah, and Esther. We're such good friends, I love spending time with them. Our producer, Amy, is great too.
5. What do you want your listeners and readers of your books to know about you that they might not already know?
Sian Ann:
How much I appreciate them. Their friendship, support, and encouragement means so much.
6. What do you hope listeners will gain from listening to your podcast?
Sian Ann:
I hope they come to feel like they're our friends and that listening to us can be a bright spot in their day.
7. One last important question…what’s your favorite food or snack to eat while you’re writing?
Sian Ann:
I don't snack when I write. I always have water with me, but I rarely eat.
