3. Interview with Sebastian from "What A Boy Wants"

 What A Boy Wants 

I read a fun book this week called, "What A Boy Wants" by Nyrae Dawn. I really enjoyed that it's told from Sebastian's POV or Bastian as his friends call him. He's "The Hook-Up Doctor" offering anonymous advice to girls on how to get the guy of their dreams while he himself avoids love at all costs. That is, until he slips and falls in love, hard. I thought it would be fun to chat with the guy of the hour and I have to admit, my inner teen came out (just a 'lil bit) when he agreed. ;) 


So, today, I'm talking to Sebastian, aka "The Hook-Up Doctor" from Nyrae Dawn's "What A Boy Wants". *giggles*
Don’t worry… I seem to have that effect on girls. *Winks at Jen*   (nearly.faints) 


Hey Bastian, I know you're a busy guy and I really appreciate you taking the time to answer a few questions.
No prob. Gotta do my part, ya know?


A lot of readers have noticed the cover shot of you. *blushes* It's um, well, you're definitely not riding the ugly train and your hair is so cool but you already know this. *giggles* OK, sorry, I get easily distracted by sparkly things and the cover is definitely sparkly. *more giggling*  *clears throat*
Dude! We keep hearing about the cover. Stoked that’s the picture we chose. But yeah… thanks, and all. I do have nice hair, don’t I? ;)  (Yes. Yes, you do.)


Being The Hook-Up Doctor, I'm sure you've gotten all kinds of questions. What's the most awkward question or advice you've been asked?
Umm… the ones asking for technical advice are always a little creepy. I mean, how do you tell someone how to kiss through email. And if you’re asking that? Yeah… not sure I can help. It’s hard though… when I get girls who put themselves down or whatever, it bothers me (probably the being raised by a single mom thing). I’m always telling them confident girls are hot. Gotta be proud of who you are, ya know?   (Great advice actually!)


Best advice you've given?
Okay, so I know this is going to sound cocky, but I think all my advice is pretty damn good. I mean, I’ve seen a lot. Seen my mom make a lot of mistakes and yeah… that sucks, so I put a lot of thought into the advice I give. It may not seem like it, but I take it very seriously.  (I totes believe you.)


Any advice you've given that you wish you could take back?

4. What A Boy Wants by Nyrae Dawn

What A Boy Wants
A funny, refreshing take on love and relationships from a guy's POV, Sebastian is the "Hook-Up Doctor", an anonymous match maker who helps girls get their dream guys.

He, himself doesn't "do" love or long term relationships because he's watched his mom crash and burn so many times he's lost count. He figures keeping things strictly "fun" is the way to go. This theory works great until he falls in love...
