Let's meet Patricia aka 'PacJac':
Thank you for joining me in the studio today. Let's get right to the questions.
Here's my Five:
I’ always asked
‘where do you get your ideas’. So, where do you get yours? No one place.
Some attack me and hold me captive until I start the story, some whisper on the
wind ~ what if, some make me laugh and I have to write that line down, or a
character will march onto the scene and throw a line that I can’t refuse to
write. I love writing and the stories
that come my way.
Which comes
first, the story, the characters, or the setting? Varies with the story.
Since I am a total seat-of-the-pants writer, I would have to say that characters
are the driving force. They entice me into their story and then I am along for
the ride to discover what is going to happen. I love surprises.
Which of your
heroines most represent you, or the ‘you’ you’d like to be? Why? That is a
hard one. Although sometimes, the hero is more me than the heroine. But I am
sure you can find me in one or the other.
If you see one of my characters say, “How hard can that be?” That is all
me. Just ask my husband who hears it
frequently. The first book I published, Liberty Belle, has a lot of me in
there. She’s independent and not waiting for others to begin living her life
and strikes out on her own.
What is the
single most important part of writing for you? I desire to make my readers
happy. And as a Christian writer, I want to encourage and give them hope
without preaching, just telling the story about characters who are facing their
own troubles and trials and how they overcome them.
What’s the most
romantic thing a guy can do (or has done) for you? Lay down his life for
me. Not just die but be attentive to my
wants and desires. (My husband is all of
that)
Here's your three:
City Girl or Country Girl
~ A suburb girl in the
country. LOL I love the country, but
don’t want to be too far out in the sticks.
Favorite TV show ~ I like
to watch TCM and older movies. I grew up watching westerns and still love
them.
What do you do to relax and recharge your batteries? I love my
family and friends. Time solving the world’s problems with my best friend, or
times with my writing friends talking about writing recharge my batteries. The
Lord told me as I started this writing career, people come first. So if someone
needs to go to lunch, I’m ready.
Your contribution to the anthology is WORTH THE WAIT
