Ask An Author Week #1: Elizabeth Sinclair
Question: If you were stranded on a desert island and could only have three books with which to read for five years, which three books would you take and why?
Elizabeth Sinclair: I picked these books because to me they're timeless and ones that I find myself reading over and over.
Upon A Mystic Tide -- Vicki Hinze
On Mystic Lake -- Kristin Hannah
Magic Hour --Kristin Hannah
I’ve written over a dozen novels for Harlequin/Silhouette, Kensington, and Medallion Press. My husband and I live in St. Augustine, FL with our two “furry children” -- Ripley, a collie, and Lily, a Golden Retriever. Current releases – Angel Unaware and Burning Secrets. Upcoming release – Garden of the Moon 12/10.

hi and welcome Elizabeth; we had to put our 'fur baby' down a few months ago at the age of 14(we had him 11 of those yrs.) and we miss him so much. Are your furry children shadows of you? Ours was as he slept on the bed and he was next to me whenever I sat down and he followed me around the house. He loved his car rides also. Are yours like this? Thanks.

Hi all, sorry I'm tardy getting back to you all, but life has a way of interferring with my best laid plans. I have two furry kids, a Golden Retriever (a gift) named Miss Lily, and a Collie named Ripley after my current heroine. They are without a doubt a huge part of my life. They attach to my hip first thing every morning and detach (sort of) every night. We can't let them sleep with us as there would be no room for my husband and I. But they are the loves of my life. Lily won't walk on a leash. She's afraid of it. Ripley hates cars.

Hi Arcanespeace! Bless you. I don't know how you gave your dog up. I could neevr part with my babaies. My husband says I'd send him packing before I'm send away the dogs. LOL
To answer your question . . . When I write, I see the charcters vividly and the whole sceen taking place in my mind as I put it down on the computer screen. It's like a movie. I interpret what I "see" into words. I was asked if I base my characters on people I know by someone esle recently. No, not consciously. I do take bits and pieces of personalities from some of them, but the characters themselves are original.

Martha -- Vicki has a new release coming out in April, KILL ZONE. It's the last book in the series she started with Bombshell, but is coming out through Medallion Press.
I write romantic suspense for Silhouette RS and light paranormals for Medallion Press. Right now, I'm writing my first straight thriller, HELL BENT, for Medallion under the pseudonym TL Abbott, which will be released 12/2010. My next paranormal, GARDEN OF THE MOON, will be out 12/2009. There's a blurb for this one on my website
