Today, I am pleased to welcome author Rachel Fordham to Interviews & Reviews. Rachel started writing when her children began begging her for stories at night. She’d pull a book from the shelf, but they’d insist she make one up. Finally she paired her love of good stories with her love of writing, and she hasn’t stopped since. She lives with her husband and children on an island in the state of Washington. She is going to talk to us today about her debut novel The Hope of Azure Springs.

Welcome to Interviews & Reviews, Rachel!

Today, we have a young teen author stopping by Interviews & Reviews. Nicki Chapelway is fifteen years old and self-published a fantasy novel called A Week of Werewolves, Faeries, and Fancy Dresses one year after she finished writing it. She enjoys reading, writing, swimming when she can, and fan-girling (in other words: obsessing over other peoples' stories almost as much as her own). She also enjoys watching TV. Her favorite movies and TV shows include: Doctor Who, Avengers, Star Wars, Lord of the Rings, The Hobbit, and Pirates of the Caribbean. Nicki currently resides in Ohio with her family of eight and two dogs, Rylie and Zoey. She is now working on the next books in the My Time in Amar series- when she's not distracted by other stories (both hers and others).

Nicki, welcome to Interviews & Reviews!
