INTERVIEW
Q: Do you have
other animals besides your dogs and cats?
A: Not at the moment. My husband and I are currently renting a
house that doesn't have enough room or a fenced in area for more
than cats and dogs. I helped my dad raise horses when I was a
kid, and since I think horses are beautiful, loving creatures. I
hope to own several one day soon, with plenty of pasture to
raise them. I'd love to own a couple of draft horses, which I
find to be gentle giants, and have a sleigh pulled by them in
the winter months with jingle bells on their harnesses.
Q: Kiyara, what would you say is your worst bad habit when
it comes to your writing?
A: Allowing the Internet and fanmail to distract me. Before I
know it, I've wasted two or three hours. Although answering
fanmail is never a waste of time.
Q: What sort of jewelry, clothes, and shoes do you like?
A: If I'm at home, I find the most comfortable thing I can, such
as cotton shorts and a huge tee shirt. If I'm going out, I like
silver and turquoise jewelry as well as unusual gemstones. I'm
all about nice-fitting jeans, and wicked-cool boots. Blouses and
tops are more along the mood I'm in at the time.
Q: What is your favorite time to write?
A: One thing I hate is Daylight Savings Time. When the evenings
arrive earlier and earlier, it bums me out. I love the summer
months when daylight comes early and I can watch the sun come up
and enjoy the birds singing of a morning. I love to write during
that time.
Q: What's your pet peeve when it comes to your computer?
A: That's easy. My husband bugging me with dumb questions when
he uses my computer for his hunting or work supplies; it's the
only time he goes online. "Honey, how do you do spell blankety-blank?"
Then minutes later I hear, "Babe, what's my email password?" Or
even worse, he'll ask me where his password is for his hunting
supply account where he buys all his hunting gear and stuff. I
don't have an interest in hunting, so why I should know his
password to that site bugs me to death!
Q: What is your biggest goal when it comes to your
writing?
A: That's another easy one. I want a best seller in New York
City publishing that pays to buy us some nice property in these
mountains, as well as a beautiful home with my own study. My
father always said that if you're going to dream, then dream
big, and I do! Besides, I wouldn't mind traveling the world
either!
Q: What is your idea of the perfect evening with your
spouse or boyfriend?
A: Since I'm happily married, the perfect evening is no kids in
the house. Then, my husband would take me to this one restaurant
called Ernie's that he swears has the best food and wine in the
state. We've never gone there as a couple yet because we have a
two young kids and no babysitter. It's wishful thinking, but I
keep hoping. Afterward, my husband swears we'd go dancing, and I
am dying to have him teach me some dance steps like the jitter
bug and salsa.
