Tori: Do you have a pre-writing ritual?
Lucienne: Not really. I write first thing in the morning, before my inner-editor wakes up and censors me. It’s the time I’m most able to get out of my own way and hear the voices of my characters. I wake up, grab coffee and something to eat and shun everything else. Otherwise, I’d get caught up in a show or e-mail or whatever. Then I grab a notebook and a pen and sit somewhere quiet and comfy to write.

Tori: What does your heroine do in her free time? 
Lucienne: Shop! Or snog with her really hot honey.

Tori: What is your favorite book? 
Lucienne: Wow, that’s a tough one. So many! Among them:

Fiction: The Hunger Games by Suzanne Collins, The Witch of Blackbird Pond by Elizabeth George Speare, the Percy Jackson series by Rick Riordan, Janet Evanovich’s Stephanie Plum series. I could go on all day!

Non-fiction: Stiff: The Curious Life of Human Cadavers by Mary Roach, Devil in the White City by Eric Larson.

Tori: What is your heroine’s favorite song?
Lucienne: Anything by her favorite singer, Su Surrus. I made her up, but think a gothed-up version of Pink. For example, take these lyrics from her fictional hit Long Gone Dead (from Revamped): 

Your eyes are like a knife
Stabbing daggers, end my life
But I won't come home to you
Best believe I have a clue. 

Okay, so maybe I shouldn’t give up my day job to become a lyricist <g>.
