Authorial Intrusion - Megan Crewe

Oct 17, 2009 08:36

I’m delighted to introduce my fellow debut author, Megan Crewe, today on Authorial Intrusion.

About Give Up the Ghost:

Cass McKenna much prefers the company of ghosts over "breathers." Ghosts are uncomplicated and dependable, and they know the dirt on everybody... and Cass loves dirt. She's on a mission to expose the dirty secrets of the poseurs in her school.

But when the vice president of the student council discovers her secret, Cass's whole scheme hangs in the balance. Tim wants her to help him contact his recently deceased mother, and Cass reluctantly agrees.

As Cass becomes increasingly entwined in Tim's life, she's surprised to realize he's not so bad--and he needs help more desperately than anyone else suspects. Maybe it's time to give the living another chance...





Like many fiction authors, Megan Crewe finds writing about herself much more difficult than making things up. A few definite facts: she lives in Toronto, Canada with her husband and two cats (and does on occasion say "eh"), she tutors children and teens with special needs, and she has yet to make friends with a ghost, though she welcomes the opportunity.

Thai food or Chinese?
Thai--but only by a small margin. I love both!

Advice for writers in 5 words or less.
Stay true to your vision.

What are you reading right now?
TRICKS, by Ellen Hopkins.

Dogs or cats?
Cats, because they're independent but still affectionate.

Favorite movie snack?
Chips, preferably Doritos.

Snorkeling or skiing?
Snorkeling--speeding downhill with slippery things attached to my feet sounds terrifying to me!

First job?
Admin assistant for my mom.

Favorite pie?
Blueberry, with pecan a close second.

Spring or fall?
Spring. Everything's fresh and growing! Though I love the beauty of the changing colors, too.

Rain or sun?
Sun, no question. It makes my day brighter in more ways than one. :)

Where would you like to travel that you haven’t yet?
Japan, Egypt, Morocco, Thailand, Iceland, Spain, the Netherlands, Ireland. (And once I've done all those, there will be more!)

Thanks for indulging our curiosity, Megan!
