Guest Post and Interview with Louise Herman!

I'm very happy to host a very talented author on Highway-Y.A.  Louise Herman is the author of five books that have received great reviews. For more information on her works you can look for the links at the end of the post. First we will have the interview and flow right to the guest post. The topic for the guest post is Valuable Feedback vs Troll Reviews. Enjoy!! Interview Questions 1.) What would you say is your interesting writing quirk? I’m not sure if you could call it an interesting writing quirk, but I have to listen to music when I write because it helps me concentrate. It is quite common for me to go to my Bjork, Limp Bizkit, NIN or Machine Head collections if I need inspiration for a fight scene or to my Ellie Goulding, Evanescence and Eurythmics selections to help me create a magical or romantic passage. If I do not have music on, I can get distracted very easily and it would take me longer to complete the task at hand. 2.) Where do you get your i...

Cover Reveal and Guest Post: The Revenant by Elise Abram

Summary: He wears neither cape nor cowl, but Zulu is a superhero, nevertheless. Raised from the dead as a revenant more than a hundred years ago, Zulu possesses Spiderman’s stealth, Superman’s speed, and Batman’s keen intellect. His only companion is Morgan the Seer, an old man cursed with longevity and the ability to see the future in his dreams. Zulu has spent the last century training with Morgan in order to save the people in his nightmares from certain and violent death. Branded a vigilante by the Media, Zulu must live his life in the shadows, travelling by night or in the city’s underground unless his quest demands otherwise. Kat is an empath, someone who sees emotions as colourful auras. Relentlessly bullied by her peers, and believing her life amounts to nothing but a huge cosmic mistake, she finds purpose in her abilities when she is recruited to help Zulu and Morgan complete their missions. Malchus is  Morgan’s long dead twin brother. A powerful necromancer, Malc...

Cover Reveal and Guest Post: Twisted Reflections by Shay West

Back Blurb: Alexis Davenport is learning to come to grips with her ability to travel through time, but she still hasn’t been able to stop the evil Drifter, and his Master, from trying to alter the past. When she travels back to ancient Egypt, Alex gets a most unexpected surprise; she meets someone who can help her figure out how to use her powers, another Traveler like herself. But can Alex learn how to control her gift before Drifter finds a way to stop her from meddling in his Master’s plans? Twisted Reflections is the highly anticipated Book Two, in The Adventures of Alexis Davenport Series. Soul Mates When it comes to books, I prefer action compared to romance. Not that a little romance is necessarily a bad thing, I just like to read fast-paced books with battles and conflict. I prefer to read about how two people fall in love rather than the act of love itself. What brought the two together? Are they attracted only physically at first but love...

Guest Post: Finding Your Voice: Writing in First Person or Third by Melissa Delport, author of The Legacy

The Legacy - MELISSA DELPORT One man obsessed with power. One woman prepared to sacrifice everything to stop him. One war that changed the world. “World War Three lasted twelve days. Twelve days was all it took for mankind to devastate the planet and almost eradicate the human race. No victor emerged from the ashes and billions lost their lives. We survivors lived through the bleakest of winters. A primal existence became the new order, and the little that remained of our humanity hung in the balance. Then one man stood up and changed the world. I believed, as did everyone else, that he was the hero of our time, the man who had saved us from our own demise. His name is Eric Dane and he is the President of the New United States of America.  He is also my husband, and my greatest enemy. I grew up oblivious to the truth, until my father found me when I was nineteen years old. He told me about the many horrifying facts that our new leader kept hidden fr...

I am excited to be working with Ms. Kipling on this tour. Be sure to check back tomorrow March 28th for the author interview.  If you have not read Blinded by the Light I encourage you to read it. To read my review of Blinded by the Light  Click Here . Before I give you more info about her book please enjoy her post as she writes about the moment she knew she wanted to become an author.  The moment I wanted to be an author . . . With a last name like Kipling, I think that my future as a writer might have been predetermined at birth. . .  . . well, at least it assured me a good place on the bookshelves.   Like most writers I’ve always been an avid reader, but unlike many authors I can’t proclaim a life long ambition to be a writer. My dad was a factory worker, my mum a chambermaid, so I anticipated that when I left school I’d get a ‘proper’ job. Being a sensible type of teenager that’s exactly what I did. Unfortunately this means that I don’t h...
