Bid on this items, Friends, and help find cure for diabetes. Now onto our guest author Jenny Brigalow today...
Who Is Jenny Brigalow?
I guess I'd have to say that I am a mum, a
book worm, an equine addict and a story teller.
I'm a self confessed home body. Love tea and chocolate and the sound of
rain on a tin roof. When I was a young
girl, I wanted to be a bareback rider in the circus. I guess I'm still
hopelessly romantic and live my dreams through my writing.
What inspired you to be a writer?
To be honest I began writing more by
accident than by design. While I'm a voracious reader it never occurred to me
that I could write. Then, whilst recovering from a back injury, I picked up a
flyer for correspondence education. One
of the courses was on how to write romance.
I thought it looked fun. And it was. The course gave me the tools to
write my first story and I haven't stopped since.
How did you choose your genre?
I didn't, I think it chose me. I write the
story that's inside and then I have to sit down and try figure which genre it fits. Love is a strong theme in
everything I write. Not very savvy I
know, but that's how it is.
What made you tell this story and why did
you write this book?
I'm not entirely sure, the writing process
remains a bit of a mystery to me. But I think I was inspired by a visit to the Queensland
Outback, which contrasted so violently with the gentle, lush green
contours of England. Geography and
landscape have great influence over everything that I write and help shape my
characters.
How did you come up with the title?
A Man For All Seasons is borrowed from my
heroine, Seraphim Driscoll (I'm sure she won't mind). It is an emotional
expression of her deepening and enduring
love for Chad.
Jenny around the web:
Nas, I hope the auction is a big success.
ReplyDeleteLove the cover on A Man For All Seasons. Interesting that Jenny's writing career started by accident. Guess you were meant to write. :)
Thanks for coming along Joy! It is a yearly thing held every May. Brenda Novak's Online Auction for diabetes research. Lots of people donate things.
DeleteYes, Jenny's cover is gorgeous and her book is about prejudice, Joy. You also write about it.
DeleteHi there Joy, thanks for joining us today. Let's hope the fundraiser is a big success. A great cause. And Joy, I'm not sure if I was meant to write, but it is a bit addictive once you start, isn't it?
Love the story of how Jenny started writing! It's always interesting to see how we all arrive where we are!
ReplyDeleteDon't enter me in the draw as I already have my copy of this great story! :)
Hi Jemi, thanks for finding the time to pop in for a chat. It is intriguing to have insight into other peoples journeys isn't it? Everyone's is so different, guess that's the beauty of writing, the variety is endless. So pleased you enjoyed the story. :)
DeleteHi Jenny, as well as being a great love story, I found your book very educational too. It got me more interested in Australia and the plight of the aboriginals in particular. Well done...
ReplyDeleteHi Maria, lovely to hear from you. History has a way of echoing into the present doesn't it? The Aboriginal people of Australia have an extraordinary story to tell. One of immense courage and determination in the face of almost overwhelming odds.
DeleteHi Nas! Hi Jenny! Love the way Jenny started writing and love how you were influenced by the Outback. That cover is amazing.
ReplyDeleteWill have to learn more about the auction Nas.

Hi Denise, thanks for taking the time for a chat. Must agree, the cover is yummy. Can't stop admiring it myself!
ReplyDeleteGreat to meet you, Jenny. Good luck with your book.
ReplyDeleteHi, Nas!
DeleteHey Carol, great to here from you. And thanks!
Great post ladies! Jenny the book was incredible ! Congrats!
ReplyDeleteHi Desere, thanks for dropping by. And a big thank you to Nas for getting us all together. So pleased you enjoyed A Man For All Seasons, Desere.
ReplyDeleteIf this double posts please excuse. I also love to hear the sound of rain, but no tin roof here. I really enjoyed A Man For All Seasons!
ReplyDeleteHi Nancy, thanks for joining us. A fellow rain buff, how lovely. I guess for me it comes from living through long years of drought. I also love the scent of rain steaming off hot bitumen. Delighted to hear you enjoyed A Man For All Seasons.
ReplyDeleteI enjoyed the interview. My writing career started as an accident, too. It's funny how that works out!
ReplyDeleteHi Sherry, thanks for taking the time to share. I'd love to know how your accidental career came about! Life is full of surprises isn't it, things happen when you least expect it.
ReplyDeleteLovely to meet you Jenny! I love how you chanced upon writing quite by accident. Your story sounds intriguing!

ReplyDeleteThat's one smoking cover.
Congratulations on the release, Jenny!
