#WriterWednesday Interview with Luna Rey Hall
/
I’d like to welcome Luna Rey Hall to the blog for #WriterWednesday.
A few of your favorite things: my dogs, my dogs, my dogs
Things you need to throw out: not my dogs.
Things you need for your writing sessions: either my phone or computer— i don’t write on paper anymore.
Things that hamper your writing: any type of talking, so i go someplace quiet or try to put on music without lyrics.
Favorite music or song: i lean towards indie rock/pop, hip-hop, hyperpop.
Music that drives you crazy: generic stadium country music… like really corporate brewed type stuff.
Favorite beverage: water is the best and always will be.
Something that gives you a sour face: cream soda
Something you’re really good at: writing
Something you’re really bad at: also writing
The last thing you ordered online: probably books... unless food from an app counts
The last thing you regret buying: merchandise from a since cancelled musician
Things you always put in your books: queerness
Things you never put in your books: a happy ending
Favorite places you’ve been: Seaside, Oregon— specifically with all of my friends
Places you never want to go to again: NYC during a busy time of the year
Favorite books (or genre): my all-time favorite books is Black Aperture by Matt Rasmussen and Blood Dazzler by Patricia Smith
Books you wouldn’t buy: not a big fan of historical non-fiction? books by bad people. Harry Potter.
The nicest thing a reader said to you: there’s been an endless amount of very generous and pleasant, kind, warm things that readers have said to me over the years but i think the biggest one would be hearing my book is someone’s favorite or that they are grateful i’m in the world.
The craziest thing a reader said to you: “the main character is annoying” — well yeah they are going through a very traumatic experience, and nobody is perfect so accurate.
