An Interview with Brenda Williamson
By Katie Raines for The Romance Studio
KR: Brenda, thank you for talking with us at TRS. Please tell us about your featured story, Fiachra's Kiss.BW: This is a simple story surrounding falling in love at Samhain between two people who've never met. Fiachra and Bowen's first attraction is looks. But as the story develops and they learn more about each other's hopes and dreams, they discover how much they have in common, and how well suited they are together.
KR: Your heroine runs away from an arranged marriage that will unite two powerful clans. The man who would be her husband, knowing who she is but concealing his identity, helps her. Where did you get the idea for this very clever story? BW: It just comes out of my head as I write. I always start a story with a sentence and then a bunch of "what if" scenarios until one feels right for the plot. I do that for every scene. The final chapter or two is often the hardest because I have to wind up all loose ends.
KR: How did you choose the setting for this tale? What sort of research did you do for it? BW: There's not much complexity to the story, most interaction is between the hero and the heroine since this is a novella, but I did read up on Celtic Samhain traditions.
KR: What did you like best about Fiachra and how do you relate to her? BW: She's impulsive with her actions and easily swayed by a handsome man. Those characteristics always got me in trouble.
KR: You've written many stories for many publishers. How do you balance multiple projects? BW: I've always been a multi-tasker. Take this interview for instance; I stopped halfway through editing a novella to answer these questions.
KR: What advantages do you have as an author in writing for several houses?
BW: I can have a more diversified style to fit different readers.
KR: What sort of writing schedule do you keep to make it all happen? BW: It's more erratic than it once was, but I write every time I get in front of a computer, which is usually forty hours a week.
KR: What advice would you give to anyone aspiring to be a writer? BW: Write what you like, fill out every area of the story so you don't rush the ending, and enjoy the work of learning the ropes.
KR: What's your goal as an author at this point? BW: It's always to keep writing no matter what. I have some things come up in my life that have taken time from that, but I try to compensate in other ways.
KR: What do you have coming up next for your readers? BW: Next is an Indian Western, HER SAVAGE LOVER, coming out at Aspen Mountain Press.
KR: Thank you!
