[image error]Jessica Strider, a bookseller at the World's Biggest Bookstore in Toronto, Canada, grills me about NECROPOLIS and the writing life, as posted on her SCI-FI FAN LETTER blog:

In the past you've written TV episodes and plays, and are an award-winning stage actor and director.  What made you try your hand at writing novels?
Does having an acting background help with your writing?
Why do you think zombies/reanimated dead have such staying power?
What kinds of books do you read for fun?
If you could, would you change places with any of your characters?
What was the hardest scene for you to write?
When and where do you write?
What's the best/worst thing about writing?
What is something you didn't know about the publishing industry before you had your first book published?
Do you have any advice for hopeful authors?
Any tips against writers block?
How do you discipline yourself to write?
How many rejection letters did you get for your first novel or story?
