THE KID’S INTERVIEW
Gracie Greer, age 9, is interviewed by her mom , the author Lisa Greer
Q. Can you name all your Mom’s books?
Gracie: She Walks
on the Shore, Moonlight on the Palms, Magnolian, Shadow beneath Evil, Blood on
Snowflakes
Q. Which is your favorite and why?
Gracie: I haven't
read them yet, but I like the covers.
Q. When does your Mom write? Where in the house? Describe her writing area.
Gracie: She writes near
the backyard door, near my computer and dad's computer. She writes a little bit in the morning and
afternoon and a lot at night.
Q. What are you doing when Mom is writing?
Gracie: Playing
outside, watching TV, reading, playing a game with dad, playing with the cat,
talking to her by her computer, or in bed
Q.
If Mom got rich and famous, what would you want
her to do with the money?
Gracie: Buy a bigger house with an upstairs, give some of
it to people who need things.
Q.
Do you read your Mom’s books?
Gracie: No, not yet. I
like science and R.L. Stine stories better.
Q.
Do you think you do better in school because Mom
is a writer?
Gracie: No, because I'm better at math than reading.
Q.
Do your friends know what your Mom writes? Do you tell them?
Gracie: Sometimes, when their
moms want to buy a book and I deliver it at school.
Q.
Do you want to be a writer when you grow
up? If not, what do you want to be?
Gracie: No, a scientist. I gave up on art.
Q.
If you could dedicate a book to your Mom, what
would you say?
Gracie: What? I wouldn't dedicate a book to you. Then: I would just
put your name...and a big heart. That's all I'd put.
