Optional Monthly Question: Whose perspective do you like to write from best, the hero (protagonist) or the villain (antagonist)? And why?
I have never tried to write from the villain’s point of view, but I’d so love to. I like writing a good villain, so this seems like a great challenge for me. Hey, WEP, (hint hint wink wink) I think I have an idea…

Author Features
In February, I had a chance to feature a few more authors. Check out my video interview with the author, Jennifer Irvig. Just this Monday, I had a lovely interview with, steampunk author, Phoebe Darqueling.

Now, on to the personal updates.
I’ve taken on way too much and need to decide which things to lay off of a bit, but that’s easier said than done. At this point, I have not become overwhelmed or anything like that, but I can sense things building up. I have so much I want to do and there’s no set deadline for any of it. That’s the beauty of being an indie. I can do things in my own time.
Sometime this weekend I hope to record my February update on YouTube but for today, I’ve posted a few book reviews over at my Lit Carnivale blog (I’m still several book reviews behind, but I’m catching up a little each day.)
