Chasing the Witch by Jessica Gibson

Hi!  Welcome to our stop on Enchanted Book Promotions' tour of Chasing the Witch (book 2).  I was thrilled to get to do an interview with author Jessica Gibson, I loved reading Mark of the Witch (book 1) and couldn't wait to dig her brain a little!   Be sure to stick around for more about Chasing the Witch below! 

Interview Time : 

1. Let’s start out easy.. Tell us a little bit about your book. 

Chasing the Witch is the continuation if Jilly and Caroline’s story from Mark of the Witch. We learn more about Caroline and about William and his family.

2. What inspired you to write this story?

I couldn’t not write it, Jilly and Caroline were screaming at me to keep going after I finished book 1. They had such clear voices and ideas about where the story should go

3. Moving on to your writing career, how long have you been writing? Did you always dream to become an author? 

I have been writing for a little over a year. And no, I didn’t always aspire to write, it’s something that as I got older I thought about doing.

4. I’m always curious whether or not authors read the same types of books that they write.  So tell us, what book genres do you love to read? to write? 

I love anything Paranormal, and I’ve been digging  Contemporary Romance lately too. Oh, and Historical Fiction too, I’ve always loved that. So far I’ve only written Paranormal, but I do have a Contemporary Romance in the works for later this year.

5. What are you reading right now? 

 At the moment I’m reading Taste of Home magazine lol. When I’m writing I can’t read books, I can't concentrate on the storylines when I have my own running through my head.

6. Have any particular authors  inspired you to write? If so, can you name one and what you like about their style? 

Hmmm....That’s a toughy. I don’t really know that any author inspired me to write, but I do have a lot of Indie authors that I love. Lola James for one is amazing. She has such a fun and breezy way of writing her books that just gets you wrapped up in the story. I also really like Lk Rigel, she is a true wordsmith. I get lost in her books in the first chapter. She weaves the story and creates worlds.

7. Do you have any upcoming projects? 

Yes! I’m almost finished with my first YA book Haunted U that’s being put out by Hayson Publishing in the spring. I also am working on Blood and Sacrifice, book 2 in my Blood Ties series, and hope to have that out in April.

And now.. More about the book...
