Author Interview - Stacy Wise
Author of Lie, Lie Again
“Lie, Lie Again is a fast-paced, darkly funny suburban drama of three women who live in the same apartment complex. From the outside, everything looks perfect. No one would suspect secrets are piled behind closed doors. With a deliciously evil pathological liar in the mix, this story is a thrilling ride.”
Author I draw inspiration from: So many! JoJo Moyes, Lawrence Sanders, Liane Moriarty, Greer Hendricks and Sarah Pekkanen, to name a few.
Favorite place to read a book: Snuggled in a cozy blanket on my sofa with my dogs nearby.
Book character I’d like to be stuck in an elevator with: Becky Bloomwood from Confessions of a Shopaholic by Sophie Kinsella because she is delightfully funny.
The moment I knew I wanted to become an author: Third grade. My teacher told me I was a good writer, and the seed was planted. It took me quite a few years to grow that seed though! I worked as a casting director and then an elementary school teacher before pursuing writing.
Hardback, paperback, ebook or audiobook: paperback and ebook
The last book I read: Troubles in Paradise by Elin Hilderbrand (Who doesn't love to escape in a great Elin Hilderbrand novel?)
Pen & paper or computer: computer
Book character I think I’d be best friends with: Lou Clark in Me Before You by Jojo Moyes OR Lindsay Boxer, Cindy Thomas, Claire Washburn, and Jill Bernhardt from James Patterson's Women's Murder Club series.
If I weren’t an author, I’d be a: an aspiring author!
Favorite decade in fashion history: Uh, being that I had to google images of fashion history, I think it's safe to say I don't have one! (But I do love most things Anthropologie!)
Place I’d most like to travel: I'd love to tour the Cotswolds in England.
My signature drink: Caffé mocha with whole milk.
Favorite artist: Musical? Taylor Swift, Pink, Kelly Clarkson, Darius Rucker, and Keith Urban. (And the list goes on...:)
Number one on my bucket list: I'd love to spend a day with Oprah.
