#ThisorThatThursday Author Interview with Lane Stone
/
I’d like to welcome author Lane Stone to the blog this week for #ThisorThatThursday!
A few of your favorite things: Dogs, lighthouses (I’m on the board of Delaware River and Bay Lighthouse Foundation) and travel.
Things you need for your writing sessions: white noise – pre-COVID Panera’s background noise was absolute perfect.
Things that hamper your writing: My husband talking to me. Too honest? Ok, let’s go with clutter.
Things you love about writing: Hanging out with readers.
Favorite music or song: Cold Little Heart by Michael Kiwanuka is the ring tone on my phone. I thought the whole soundtrack from Big Little Lies was amazing.
Music that drives you crazy: Neil Diamond music.
Favorite beverage: Starbucks Trenta Black Iced Tea, Light Ice, Light Water, One Stevia, No cane syrup. (I’ve gone to Starbucks almost every day since COVID started.).
Favorite smell: My dog, Cordy, wet or dry.
Something that makes you hold your nose: The smell of turnip greens cooking. (But some days I miss my Mom so much I’d gladly smell it if I could see her again.)
The last thing you ordered online: Alice Boatright’s Christmas mystery, WHAT CHILD IS THIS. Every year I like to read a holiday mystery.
Things that make you want to run screaming from the room: When my husband plays his Neil Diamond tapes.
Things you always put in your books: Our first Standard Schnauzer, Abby, is in each of my books.
Favorite books (or genre):
Books you wouldn’t buy: Autobiographies by negative people, who just want to get in the last word.
Best thing you’ve ever done: Marry my husband, Larry Korb, 30 years ago.
