Interview Questions With Author Nina R Schluntz

1. Tell us about your genre. How did you come to choose it? Why does it appeal to you?

 
Oh, this was a slippery slope! It all started when the buzz was going on about “Fifty Shades of
Grey.” I kept hearing the talk on the radio and even TV shows referencing it. So I decided to
read it just so I would be “in the know.” It was the first erotica I’d ever read. After I finished it, I
read the “Twilight” books because I wanted to see how those inspired the writer who did “Fifty
Shades.” And it just kept going, I was reading more romance books with vampires, zombies,
werewolves… and then I read my first m/m romance and a whole new world opened up for me.
Plain old heterosexual romances were old news. Eventually, I found there was a certain niche
that was being ignored, so I decided to try filling it.
 

You see, I read a book where the abused guy got his happy ending, but the abuser didn’t. He got
some ending where he was the shell of his former self. I was like, “He should get a happy ending
too.” And that is exactly what inspired my book “Kale’s Paroxysm.” Now, I put that same twist
in all my books, “Kidnapped Killer” takes it to the extreme and is my darkest book. Neither
character is a good person. I made it a personal challenge to see if I could still wrote a story
where readers would be engaged and want to hear their tale, even if in real life you’d run the
other direction if you saw them. I think on paper, these characters intrigue us, and maybe it gives
us hope that even if we aren’t perfect, we can find a happy ending too.
 

2. What do you find most challenging about the writing process, and how do you deal with it?
 

The waiting game. After your book has been accepted by a publisher and you have to wait for
the editor to look at it, then the proof editor, then the formatter… and you’re just sitting there
biting at your nails wanting your book to hurry up and be out there so you can show it to people!
I deal with it by having more than one book in the works. So while I’m waiting on edits for one
book, I’m writing another, and doing promotion for a third.
 

3. When and where do you do your writing?

 
I can write anywhere. I can get interrupted mid-sentence and pick right back up where I left off,
hours or even days later. I don’t need a special zone of concentration to work. Before I owned a
computer, I would go to a local library between work shifts and jam out a few chapters. Now
though, I work on my laptop at home.

4. What have you learned about promoting your books?

 
It’s not something you can do overnight. And don’t be afraid to reach out to other authors. I used
to think fellow authors were the enemy, I mean, they are the competition. But they are also the
customers, a writer is usually a big reader too! And I have yet to have a bad experience with a
fellow writer. If they are doing something you like, and you want to know how they did it, just
ask, they’ll usually answer. We are an introverted but friendly bunch.
 

5. What are you most proud of as a writer?

The fact this skill helps me with so many other aspects of my life. You use writing for so many
different things. You can’t go wrong with developing these skills. I encourage anyone to do it,
even if they never publish anything.
 

6. If you could have dinner with any writer, living or dead, who would it be and what would you talk about?

 
Darby Conley, author of the comic “Get Fuzzy.” I don’t know what we’d talk about, but I’m
pretty sure it would be hilarious and probably pet related.

Nina Schluntz is a native to rural Nebraska. In her youth, she often wrote short stories to entertain her friends. Those ideas evolved into the novels she creates today.

Her husband continues to ensure her stories maintain a touch of realism as she delves into the science fiction and fantasy realm. Their three cats are always willing to stay up late to provide inspiration, whether it is a howl from the stray born in the backyard or an encouraging bite from the so called “calming kitten.”
