5 Easy Questions: Unleashing the Woman Within @LocGlin #RLFblog #PNR
Unleashing the Woman Within 5 Easy Questions is an interview is designed to be quick, easy,
and fun. Today’s guest is Loc Glin.What is your go-to meal
to order when you dine out? Your favorite “I know it will hit the spot”
item.It’s hard to mess up a burger, although it has been done. Chicken
cutlet of some kind can work out well if they don’t put a lot of stuff on it that
I don’t like. Pasta is a safe bet, most of the time. You know…I don’t think I have
an “I know it will hit the spot” item. I don’t eat out very often, so
it’s a crap shoot depending upon where I go.What were you like when
you were in school?I was quiet, shy and reserved. I haven’t changed much, although
writing erotic romance as I do, it may be hard to believe.Would you rather stay
inside and watch snow falling, or get out in it and build a snowman?I’d rather stay inside. But I have been known to enjoy being
outside, dressed warmly by a chimnea, my hands facing the fire as the snow falls
gently and silently around me.What was your favorite
book as a child?As a child, I didn’t really like read. I read what was required
of me in school. I remember a book called “Starman Jones” I have no idea
who wrote it, and the story line escapes me, but for some crazy reason I remember
the title. I think I had to do a book report on it. (from
Kayelle: it was written by Robert A Heinlein and I read that myself! You can
grab it here.)If the hero of your latest
book called you on the phone, what would be a perfect ringtone for him?Bad to the Bone (by George Thoroughgood).About the Book
