Michelle Ziegler is visiting today promoting Winter's Sweet Kiss, a romance anthology. Let's find out a bit more about this lovely lady and the story she's written for it.
On
and off my whole life. I’ve only been
writing for the goal of publication for about seven years.
No. Almost all my stories characters are one of a
kind. I can’t even pick a celebrity to play my characters.
I
love Nick, because he’s sweet, genuine, and goes after what he wants.
People
have a plan? When it comes to writing I
like to wing it and let the characters tell the story as it should be told.
No! :)
Um…hmm. Well.
Actually I’d still be me. I’d
miss my family too much to be away. If
someone was holding a gun to my head, I guess I could be my daughter for a
day. Maybe I could figure out why she
does what she does.
You’re
scaring me J I’m going to go with: a Belgium waffle, eggs,
bacon, hashbrowns, and apple juice. I’d
say coffee, but who wants to be awake for an execution.
Well,
I assume you mean for myself and not my kids?
I like Target for general items, Macy’s if I feel rich or the Limited,
Amazon for nearly everything else since I don’t have to leave the house with
kids.
fashion. Sure I like to look nice, but I couldn’t tell
you if I was trendy or not.
What’s the name of your newest release?
One
in a Million Snowflakes, it’s part of the Winter’ Sweet Kiss Anthology.
Where did you get the idea from for this
story?
I
have no idea J I think some of it was from the weather, some
of it was from my brother’s career in the military, and the rest was the
product of an overactive imagination.
How long have you been writing?
Do you imagine a particular person you know
or have seen when creating your main characters?
Of all the characters in your books who is
your favorite and why?
When writing, are you an ‘in the moment
kinda gal’ or do you follow a strict
plan?
What are you reading at the moment?
Santa
Wore Leathers by Vonnie Davis and Java Script for Beginners. Does the second one actually count?
If you could be anyone for a day, who would
that be?
What would be your last meal if you were on
deathrow?
Now I'm hungry, Michelle!
Where do you like to shop?
Complete this sentence; I’m indifferent to…
Blurb
Angela is
in love with someone she can’t have. Stranded in the bitter cold after another
failed date, Angela is running out of time. Her company Christmas party
is around the corner, and the idea of going with her boss’ nephew is less then
appealing. Escaping the cold , Angela jumps into her familiar getaway car to
find Nick, her life-long crush, in the driver’s seat. Strategic planning
on his part has them finally giving into years of denied feelings.
Unfortunately, reality always surfaces. Angela pushes Nick away in fear
of losing his sister, her best friend. Breaking Nick’s heart was never part of
her plan, and thankfully Nick isn’t going to let her. His headstrong
nature comes out and changes the game despite Angela’s attempts to stay away from
him. Angela needs to decide if her best friend is more important than Nick, or
if she should just give up and resign herself to a life with someone else
excerpt
Angela
broke off as she heard a chuckle. A male chuckle. Had she gotten in the wrong
car? She released the seatbelt she’d finally managed to grasp, which hit the
car door with a loud thwack, and shot a glance at the driver’s seat.
Nick.
Suddenly,
she wasn’t cold anymore.
“Oh my
God! When did you get back?” She flung her arms around his neck. Rebecca’s
older brother was a Marine who had been on deployment. “I can’t believe you’re
here! Becks didn’t tell me. You didn’t even send an email.” Angela was a little
hurt.
“You’re
choking me.”
“Oh.
Sorry. I’m excited to see you.” Angela let go, happy but embarrassed. She’d
spent years squelching her feelings for Nick. She was obviously out of
practice.
Bio
Michelle’s imagination started spilling out onto
paper the second she could scribble. Her drawing never improved, but her
love affair with words continued and evolved as she became infatuated with one
story after another. If life could be written, Michelle would write
everyone’s ending as a happily ever after.
Michelle grew up in Chicago and later moved to
Colorado. Her husband still makes fun of her Midwest accent. By day she is an
engineer, wife, and mother to two kids and two dogs. Her sanity survives on the
pages she writes, even if her toddler is trying to drive her to the edge one
temper tantrum at a time.
