N. N. Light’s Book Heaven is celebrating its tenth anniversary. Isn’t that wonderful?
I’d like to introduce prolific author Lis Anna-Langston.
Question 1: Where were you ten years ago in relation to your author/writer career? If you weren’t writing, what were you doing?
Ten years ago I was writing. I had been widely published in literary journals and magazines, but my first novel and book award were on the horizon. I was living in Pittsburgh, and it was cold.
Question 2: Looking back on the past ten years, how has your writing grown?
My writing has grown so much. It’s actually incredible to think about. My habits as a writer are far better and having novels published brought a new awareness to an area I had no experience in before.
Question 3: What are you doing now? How many books have you published?
Six books and counting. I am working on new titles and also a fair amount of short fiction.
