Interview with Jessie Harrell
Author of: Destined
Alaiel: Thanks a lot for the interview, Jessie, I’m so glad you accepted!
Questions about yourself.-
Alaiel: Tell us a little bit about yourself.
Jessie: I wish I was more interesting, but I’m pretty much your typical bookworm. Studied hard through high school and college. Went to law school, did the whole big firm thing, left to go to a tiny firm (so much better!) and I’m raising kids with my amazing hubby while trying to squeeze in writing time when I can. I LOVE to travel and spent six weeks in Greece when I was in college. I’ve actually been to some of the places in Destined.
Alaiel: What is your favorite book? Why?
Jessie: At this moment, "Where She Went" by Gayle Forman. All I can say is that is was AWESOME. The emotions were real and raw and it made me feel on so many different levels.
Alaiel: Where is your favorite place to write?
Jessie: I love when I have the time to go somewhere like a coffee shop, but really, there’s no bad place to write. If I’m writing, I’m happy.
Alaiel: When you are blocked what do you do?
Jessie: Research. I’m usually stumped because I don’t know the answer to a question. Once I get the answer, ideas click into place.
