HOW TO PREPARE FOR AN INTERVIEW WITH KIRSTEN MILLER
1. Read Kirsten Miller's books. This can be more of a challenge if you have a nine-year-old who thinks the book covers are cool and loves the stories. And if said daughter notices a Kiki Strike book on the kitchen table, she'll stash it
I'm in love, thanks to Chris, of The Simple and the Ordinary. Let me introduce my new favorite band/singer, Five for Fighting, which features the talents of singer, pianist, guitarist and activist John Ondrasik. John has this wonderful charitable video website, inspired by his song World, called What Kind of World Do You Want? Basically, you go over to this site and view a video for a particular
Holy Batman! Thanks for a great interview. I know I'm looking forward to Kirsten's future books.
Great interview. { In fact, I wish there were more cross over between the worlds of “fiction” and “young adult” fiction. A good story should appeal to everyone. }I agree, I agree.Go Batman and go squirrels!
Thanks for this wonderful interview! Must go visit the blog and website now, and then, of course, read the books!
Awesome interview! And Batman is way cool!
That's so cool your test said you were Kiki Strike. Which is probably one of the coolest girl names ever.
Fab interview, HWM. I really admire Kirsten's work with Kiki and the gang. A wonderful, entertaining series.
Great stuff, Vivian! Last I heard book 3 was still a maybe, so I'm glad that's crossed over into the definite. Thanks for the news!
Nice interview! Thanks for the link!
OK, I'm one of the few folks in the world who hasn't read the Kiki books--even though I kept seeing them referred to on Fuse 8. Your fantastic interview totally convinced me. Off to put them on reserve!
Ooh! I've never heard of Kiki before! I'm rushing out today to get a copy. I, too, have a 9 year old daughter. Sounds like something she might like to read. Thanks for introducing me to this intriguing series.
Kirsten's interviews are always so unique and fun and informative. She rocks.
What a great and good-looking interview! We're about to start a co-review over at 7-Imp of the latest book (which I'm slow in getting to). Thanks for this! (and I saw the web site for the first time the other day -- you're right. It's amazing).
Great interview! I love these books and reviewed the latest in a forthcoming issue of a magazine which I shouldn't yet name. As an aside, Kiki Strike can also be found on Facebook with a simple search...
Fantastic interview! So happy to hear that Book 3 is underway. Just about the only possible way to make Kiki Strike any cooler would be to set the next book in Paris, and lo! Ms. Miller has complied.Cannot wait.
thanks for the awesome interview! i can't wait til my daughter is old enough to read these books!
I really enjoyed Kiki Strike. The rats creeped me out and I love being creeped out by good booksDoret
