Author Interview: Tiffany Shand - Denai Touch Blog Tour

Today I am very happy to welcome Tiffany Shand, author of Denai Touch to my blog. She was kind enough to answer a few questions about herself and her writing.

Author Interview: Tiffany Shand

Q. Can you tell us a little about yourself?

• I’m in my late 20s and I’m currently studying for a journalism degree. When I’m not writing, you will usually find me reading or listening to a book.
• I recently finish studying for diplomas in proofreading and copywriting and I’m hoping to start my own freelance business later this year.
• I have two cats and a hamster, they’re all mad!

Q.  Writing – why?

• I've been writing stories for a long as I can remember. I always loved reading, so I think writing just came naturally.
• Writing is great therapy as well; I think it’s a great way of clearing your mind and making yourself feel better.

Q. Do you have a favourite character from your book(s)? Why?

• I love all of my characters, but I would have to say probably Cate. She’s a strong woman and feisty, but she also has a vulnerable side.

Q.  What's easier for you, action, or dialogue, or description?

• Definitely dialogue. I like listening to what my characters have to say.

Q. What is the hardest part of a book to write, beginning, middle or end?

• The beginning because I’m not always sure what my story will turn into. I can have one idea and then the story changes into something completely different.

Q. Do you have any advice for other writers?

• Try to write every day, even if it’s only a few sentences. The longer you stay away from writing, the harder it becomes. Read a lot and see how other authors have crafted their characters and their worlds.

Q. What is your favourite genre and why?

• Definitely paranormal romance and fantasy because they are the most interesting genres. I love anything paranormal!

Q. When do you have the most fun writing a book? When you first start? When you are blazing along with the main bulk of the plot? When you are rounding it all up?

• When I’m blazing along with the main plot and I know what direction the story is going in.

Q. Are you a dog or a cat person, why?

• Probably a bit of both as I’ve had both dogs and cats. I recently adopted two cats and the RSPCA and they love to play.
