1. Crazy Interview with Author Tiffany King

I have the super amazing Tiffany King on my blog today! She’s the author of The Saving Angels Series.

Now, I’ve asked her everything you didn’t know you wanted to know about her! Be prepared for a wacky and fun read!

If you were a superhero (or villain!) what would your power be? Would you wear a cape?
If I was a skinny superhero, I would wear no cape. If I had a little junk in my trunk, I would wear a cape to help hide it ;)
Chocolate, Strawberry or Vanilla?
ChocolateChocolateChocolateChocolate Hehe I guess you get the point!!
The light side or the dark side?
The light side, I can’t help it, I’m a big fat chicken.
Do you have deep dark secret? How about a shallow grey one?
LOL!! Yes many of both ;)
What sort of coffee would you order? Simple coffee, complicated soy-non-fat-extra-espresso-half-caff-nightmare?
Um somewhat simple, with cream and  sweet & low.
Have you ever given someone who asked for decaf, regular coffee just to see what would happen?
Nope, but I have jacked up many kids from my class on sugar just before they go home hehehehe :o )
Is there any food you refuse to eat? (Other than brussel sprouts because NO ONE likes them)
ONIONS!!! I absolutely HATE them!!
What is your favorite breakfast cereal? Are you opposed to those brands with tiny marshmallows in them?
They make cereal without marshmallows??? Ick that’s just wrong.
If you could live off of chocolate would you? What kind?
Dove chocolate all the way. I’m such a chocolate snob.
What do you think the coolest pet to have would be?
Lion, tiger, leopard, panther…..you get the point. A big cat would be super sweet.
If you could visit any world (real or imagined) where would you go?
I know everyone gets sick of hearing me say this but HARRY POTTER hehehe.
Have you every done anything really crazy? Do you regret it?
Yes, I’ve done many kooky things but no I don’t regret any of them (Okay well maybe some of them).
What kind of person drives you nuts? (personality trait)
Annoying Know-It-Alls. You know, “Oh, I went there, oh, I met him, oh, I’m related to her sister’s third cousin etc.” The ones that always feel they’re the Yoda of everything and anything.
Do you prefer tapered candles, pillars or tea lights?
Yankee Candles all the way. I have about a half a dozen in my house at any given time. I love it when my house smells yummy!
What do you think about scarves? Do you wear them or prefer a turtleneck?
Eek neither!! What if they got mad at me and decided to strangle me?? After all I can be sooooo annoying at times, since I’m such a Know-It-All ;)
Do you like making up strange new words? (ie awesomesauc

2. The Wacky Interview of Author Marian Allen

Traditional interviews can get dull. Having the chance to interview author Marian Allen gave me the perfect opportunity to come up with some insanely wacky questions. Why would I do this to poor Marian? Read her books. Force of Habit made my face hurt I was grinning and giggling so much. So please enjoy this wacky interview, while you learn about a truly amazing author!

1. Chocolate, Strawberry or Vanilla?

CHORKLIT!!!!!!!

2. The light side or the dark side?

Light. Definitely light. I am MomGoth, and I like dark, but not The Dark Side.

3. Do you have deep dark secret? How about a shallow grey one?

I read the first book of the TWILIGHT series and, dammit, I liked it!

4. What sort of coffee would you order? Simple coffee, complicated soy-non-fat-extra-espresso-half-caff-nightmare?

Depends on who’s buying. If it’s me, I usually buy whatever’s cheapest. If it’s somebody else, or I happen to be flush, I’ll order something fancy-schmancy like Pumpkin Spice Choco-bomb with Caramel Swirl and Whipped Cream.

5. Have you ever given someone who asked for decaf, regular coffee just to see what would happen?

Bwa-ha-ha-ha-haaaaaaa! No, I haven’t. That would just be mean, funny though it sounds. ~grin~ No Dark Side, remember?

6. Is there any food you refuse to eat? (Other than brussel sprouts because NO ONE likes them)

Actually, I LOVE Brussels sprouts! But there are many foods on my Forbidden List:

No tongue, brains, innards, wobbly bits or naughy bits.

No cute little baby animals (exception: eggs)

No long squiggly animals

Nothing with eleven billion rock-hard seeds (exception: strawberries)

Nothing that ends in “mite”

No beets

No beets

Still no beets
7. What is your favorite breakfast cereal? Are you opposed to those brands with tiny marshmellows in them?

My very most favorite cereal of the world is bite-sized frosted shredded wheat (or, as my mother calls them, sugar-coated Brillo pads). I am adamantly opposed to “marshmallow” cereals, because the marshmallows are always hard. Nobody should have to eat hard marshmallows. It’s just WRONG.

8. If you could live off of chocolate would you? What kind?

Oh, dear God, can you make that happen? Chocolate-coated coffee beans. Chocolate-coated orange peels. Chocolate-coated nuts. Chocolate-coated peanut butter.

9. What do you think the coolest pet to have would be?

A pink alley jammer. That’s a critter from FORCE OF HABIT. I want a gray one, to match my cat.

10. If you could visit any world (real or imagined) where would you go?

Llannonn, of course!

11. Have you every done anything really crazy? Do you regret it?

I walked on a ledge about ten feet off the ground between one door of a school building and another. I don’t remember how old I was, but it was somewhere in the single digits. If I had fallen off and injured myself seriously, I would have regretted it. As it is, I don’t, because nobody thought I’d have the guts to do it, not even me!

12. What kind of person drives you nuts? (personality trait)

Mean people are the worst. Other than that, people who won’t. shut. up.

13. Do you prefer tapered candles, pillars or tea lights?

Tea lights. Pillars hurt if you drop them on your foot and tapers–you could put your eye out.

14. What do you think about scarves? Do you wear them or p
