Author Quickie with...Jenny S. Burke
NOTE:
These are the most random Qs I could find and come up with, but it is to show readers how authors are just like them or maybe so different that they are their own species. I have several awesome authors already lined up, but don't let it scare you to take part though. I'll be sharing with you all; the answers to the set questions and introduce you to some awesome people, and later, all of this will be used in a statistical type blog. Hopefully, we can keep this going for as long as possible and gain as many author's inputs to make this thing grow.
But it doesn't stop there:
~If you are an author who is interested in taking part in this silly game of mine; message, email or find me on a social network.
~If you are a reader and wanna take part; do the same and become part of the fun. (It'll be really cool to have your stats as well.)
~If you are none of the above...ag, shame. Anyway, if you are an artist, a doctor, a barista or just randomly ended up here; bring it on and we can have a little fun when the stats have grown.
Jenny S. Burke
Morning person or night owl?
Night owl, usually. That’s when my ideas fly out.
Coffee, tea or neither?
Tea. I love coffee, but it makes me too wired.
EBooks or printed books?
Both! We’re talking books! Paperbacks are my first love; they feel right. Ebooks are more affordable and Earth-friendly.
Bookmark or dog-ear pages?
Bookmarks!
Extrovert or Introvert?
I’m very outgoing in public, but I need my alone time.
Secret talents? If so, what are they?
I’ve chosen a fixer-upper home for each move, so I’m really good at spackling walls, repairing sheet-rock, replacing light fixtures, fixing doors . . . handy-woman stuff. I also make custom jewelry with abstract ocean scrimshaw waves and sea beings on abalone shells.
If you had a superpower, what would it be?
I’d be a Healer.
What is your biggest fear?
It’s not precisely a fear, but the loss of a family member or friend is hard to endure.
You have three wishes, what are they?
1. To be able to heal people physically and mentally.
2. To heal the planet. Why not wish big?
3. To write five books in my Dragon Dreamer series. (A selfish wish for me.)
If you could forever break one habit, what would it be?
It’s not useful to worry, so I strive for a Zen-like calm.

Book – The Velveteen Rabbit is perfect. I tear up when the rabbit is taunted for not being real, and when his real tear brings the fairy.

What is your motto?
“Everything worth doing starts with a dream.” ~ Arak (The Dragon Dreamer)
OR “What will be, will be. And then I’ll fix it.” ~ Scree (The Dragon Dreamer)
See you on the other side!
