Shiloh Walker: Character Q&A

So in this post, I’m going to interview a character. (I kinda do this when I can’t figure out what to blog about…)

Today, I’m interviewing Nessa and Dominic from Hunter’s Fall.

Me: So which one of you want to go first?

Nessa: Isn’t that kind of your decision? After all, you’re supposed to interviewing us, dear.

Me (wincing) : Please don’t call me ‘dear’. It sounds like one of my Sunday school teachers or worse, I feel like I’m being scolded by my grandmother.

Nessa (smiling at me) : You’re hard-pressed to make it out the door every Sunday the way you do just to get to church. You never make it to Sunday school. Also, neither of your grandmothers ever called you dear. Actually, I can see why. You’re a bit of a pain in the arse, as far as authors go.

Dominic (finally) chimes in: Well, that’s not entirely fair—considering you haven’t had another author, sugar.

Me: Thank you, Dom.

Dominic (shrugging) : Well, it’s the truth. Although you were something a hassle there for a while. I didn’t think you’d ever let us f—

Nessa: Dominic…

Dominic (grinning) : Hey, I was going to say finish. As in finish our story. (Then he reaches over and starts to toy with her hair.) I mean, hell, it’s not like we weren’t waiting for forever, right?

(At this point, they start kind of taking the interview over—I figure I better get control of it again.)

Me: Nessa almost did wait forever, right?

Nessa (sighing) : Five hundred years. (She starts looking sad). You made me wait five hundred years.

(Geez, how can a character make me guilty? I start squirming)

Me: Ah, technically, no. You do realize I’m only 34, right? No way can I make you wait five hundred years. You’re just a figment, anyway. You didn’t even exist until a few years ago.

Dominic (taking hold of Nessa’s hand, shaking his head) : It doesn’t work that way. Your time doesn’t work on our time—when you wrote her the way she was, you made her history. Which means you made her wait five hundred years.

(Okay, I don’t think I like the way his eyes look right now…hmmm. I smile at him.)

Me: Well, you do realize I could have made you wait even longer, right? And I could have written Nessa with somebody else…

Dominic (narrowing his eyes at me) : Nessa, didn’t you once threaten to turn somebody into a toad?

Me: Ok, interview over…geez, you two aren’t very grateful… Croak


Hunter's Fall
UNKNOWN PAST
Something strange is happening to Nessa. Ever since she survived a near-death experience she’s not exactly who she used to be—and enjoying every minute of it. Then she’s called upon to go to battle against darkness. If only she could remember why.

UNEXPECTED LOVER
Dominic is having his own problems with memory, sanity, and hallucinations. Sent to Excelsior, the covert Hunter training facility, he senses a female presence that seems so hauntingly familiar. That’s because he and Nessa share a forgotten past.

UNSEEN EVIL
As Nessa and Dominic regain their memories, their strange mission against evil becomes clearer. And all the more dangerous because whether they should trust each other is the still the greatest unknown of all.

25 Things about Shiloh Walker

Hey everybody...thanks for dropping by today. My brain is on overdrive from deadlines and instead of trying to think up something witty, unique and captivating, I'm just going to do one of those infamous memes...these are kind of fun, though. I've had a blast reading some on the web and learning things I never would have guessed about people.

Now I'm not going to tag anybody to follow this up, but feel free to do it if you want to!

And now here's 25 things you probably don't know about me:
1. When I was five months pregnant with my son, the DH and I went to Ireland.
2. I got to see the Blarney Stone.
3. I did NOT kiss the Blarney Stone...and I doubt you could convince me to do it unless it was cleaned with Clorox first. LOTS of Clorox.
4. I grew up listening to my mom tell me and my brothers ghost stories...they are true, accordingly to my mom and her side of the family...they are hauntable, I guess.
5. The reason I write so many different kinds of romance is because I have a wicked short attention span.
6. I think I'm a lousy writer... (hmmmm...maybe I should keep that one quiet...oh well.)
7. The site of blood doesn't bother me, but I hate spiders.
8. I was about a year away from getting my black belt when I found out I was pregnant. Morning sickness made me stop taekwondo and it took me 7 years to start back.
9. In September, God willing, I'm finally going to test for my black belt.
10. I have a katana hanging over the door of my office.
11. I love romance, but I have a die-hard passion for fantasy and urban fantasy.
12. My favorite urban fantasies have romance aspects to them.
13. My husband knows a guy that is related to country/gospel music singer, Charlie Daniels.
14. I've been to see Gallagher three times.
15. I've seen Ron White twice.
16. I've seen Bill Engvall twice.
17. I'd rather go to a comedy or magic show than a concert.
18. I love music, but I can rarely remember who sings a song, or the title, unless it's a favorite of mine.
19. I'm dying to take my kids and husband to Scotland, Ireland and England.
20. I'm getting addicted to the gourmet chocolates found in New York City.
21. I've never been to New York City.
22. I married my high school sweetheart.
23. We got married in the church I've to since childhood.
24. I had a crush on him in middle school and used to kick him to show him my affection.
25. I kidnapped him for a getaway this Valentine's Day.
