We are 'Chattin' Books' with Diane Capri#1 Amazon Bestselling Author Diane Capri's work, #1 worldwide publishing phenomenon Lee Child calls "Full of thrills and tension, but smart and human, too." Margaret Maron, Edgar, Anthony, Agatha and Macavity Award-winning MWA Past President, says: "Expertise shines on every page." And Library Journal raves: "....offers tense legal drama with courtroom overtones, twisty plots, and loads of atmosphere.
Recommended." We asked Diane...Diane, thank you for taking time from your busy schedule to chat books with us!
You are a widely acclaimed, best selling author. Is there one thing that makes writing the best job in the world? "One thing I really love about being a writer is the 40 foot commute! Seriously. When I practiced law in Detroit, my commute was 26 miles one way — and it could sometimes take 3 hours or more! Now, I wander into my study and plop down at the keyboard. Of course, the FitBit in my pocket tells me I need more exercise. Sigh" Can you give us a small glimpse of what you do to be so successful? Listen up, new authors...old ones too! "When I get to my desk, usually around 9:30 a.m., I work on correspondence and handle my social media while I eat breakfast. After that, I get to the real work. I'm usually working on three books: the one I'm writing, the one I'm editing, and the one I'm promoting. Whew!" I'm getting tired just listening! How late do you work? "I finish up at the office around 6:00 p.m., have dinner with my husband (often in front of the TV and with the iPad). For the next few hours, I catch up on my reading and play Words With Friends with a few folks who enjoy my books, which is really fun. They generally kick my butt! Would you like to send me a game? Contact me through my website here": http://dianecapri.com/contact/ You are so busy. When you get a chance to relax, what do you do? "I read everything! ...Now, in addition to industry publications and general news, I read across genres and it seems like I'm reading constantly. The genres I love the best are the ones I write: Mystery/Thriller/Suspense. I like stories with great characters and great plots. I read to find out what happens next, so everything I read needs some element of suspense to hold my interest. Some literary fiction is suspenseful, and I enjoy that as well." Diane, what lies ahead, for you? "Thanks for asking! I'm currently writing the second novel in my Hunt for Jack Reacher series called "Get Back Jack." The book should be available by August, publishing gods willing. After that, I've promised my readers another Jess Kimball thriller and then another Justice series novel featuring Willa Carson. OMG! I've got a lot of work to do!! Gotta dash" -- Thank you so much, Diane. It has been a pleasure to 'chat books' with you. As a member of the Happy Chattin' Books, family, you are welcome back here anytime. Promise you'll drop by, again!
