Author Interview: Sierra Simone

Hello, fellow nerds! This week, we got to chat with Sierra Simone, author the Priest series, The New Camelot Series, The Lyonesse Trilogy, and more!

Sierra is a voracious reader of all things including the smuttiest smut, piles of non-fiction, and old-timey books with brooding widowers. She loves writing the dirtiest things that she can think of, and also: King Arthur, sparkling water, ancient mystery cults, coffee, leggings, and fog. 

Her previous jobs have included firing ceramics, teaching living history lessons in one-room schoolhouse in full, 1904 school marm attire, and working in a library for several years (not in that order).

Her novels have been published in Czech, Dutch, French, German, Hungarian, Italian, Polish, Portuguese, Romanian, Russian, Turkish, and Ukrainian. She's been featured in Buzzfeed, Cosmopolitan, Entertainment Weekly, Marie Claire, and Library Journal with a starred review.

She lives in the Kansas City area with her husband, two children, and two giant dogs.

Listen in as we chat more about Sierra’s books, her co-author books, and her upcoming projects. Be sure to follow her @thesierrasimone

Author Interview: Julie Olivia

Hello, fellow nerds! This week, we got to chat with Julie Olivia, author of The Honeywood Fun Park series, Never Harbor series, and the recently re-released standalone If It Makes You Happy! 

Julie Olivia writes cozy love stories filled with humor, spice, and close friend groups that feel like a warm hug. She is a roller coaster fan, avid romance reader, and rainy day enthusiast. Before writing romance novels, Julie moonlighted as an illustrator and worked in Human Resources, in which she still maintains a SHRM-CP certification. However, she decided writing about office romances where they break all the policies was far more enjoyable than enforcing them. Julie lives in Atlanta, Georgia with her husband and their very opinionated pets.

Listen in as we chat more about Julie's books, rainy days, and great banter in romance books! Be sure to follow her @julieoliviaauthor
