Naomi Chapman interview, author of The Digby Lake Killer and Wallet of Death.

 

Where were you born and raised?

 

  Fostoria, Ohio

 

What was it that first got you into writing and when did you start writing?

 

   I'm not sure.  I remember writing when I was in the sixth grade.  I was asked what I wanted to do when I grew up and I said I wanted to write.

 

Which writers have influenced you the most?

 

      I'm not influenced by any writers. 

 

What kind of things do you write?

 

    I write thrillers.  I describe what I write as slasher stories.  They are violent, but not too gory.

 

What are you working on now?

 

     I'm working on a new thriller, and I'm working on writing a screenplay.

 

What is your writing day like?

 

     I write when I'm at work and a lot when I'm driving.  I try to write at least 1,000 words a day. When I don't work I usually don't write because I spend that time with my son.

 

What’s the most exciting thing about writing for you?

 

     Writing itself is exciting.  I also like getting out meeting people at book signings and promoting my books. 

 

What’s the most frustrating thing about writing for you?

 

     There's nothing really frustrating about writing.

 

What’s the best piece of feedback that you’ve had from your audience?

 

     All feedback is good, but I can't think of any right off.

 

Do you write for a particular audience, or is your first priority to satisfy your own creativity?

 

      I write to satisfy my own creativity, but what I write is mostly for adults because of the violence.

 

Do you have a homepage? Do you have any short stories or poems published online? (If so, please provide the URLs):
