JT Cheyanne says

In the Abyss says
I do not and I will get it. ~sticks tongue out and raspberries~

BookPimp1985 says
And last but not least, JT, Kim says that when you write Malachi’s book she wants to be the Queen Bee in that book so make it happen!! LOL

In the Abyss says
You will do great JT, no worries. ~smiles~

BookPimp1985 says
 Spoiler Alert #1
I knew!!! I knew  when she said she was adopted that heifer was going to turn out to be a mermaid!! Called it!!! Lol!!

JT Cheyanne says
My daughter has claimed Malachi...he seems to be very popular with the females

BookPimp1985 says
He is indeed

BookPimp1985 says
Now if you didn’t read the rules before entering the chat, I know you were just excited to chat up JT, then here they are …….
**RULES FOR CHAT**
Those that have questions for JT during the interview may PM BookPimp1985 on BlogTalkRadio with any questions

Momma Talks Alot says
Damn!!! I want a dark, mysterious man damn it!!!

Momma Talks Alot says
LMAO

JT Cheyanne says to 
with a voice that melts you right

BookPimp1985 says
HELL YEAH!

BookPimp1985 says
Alright now to the serious stuff and the reason we're all here!

JT Cheyanne says
Yeah before Keagan gets here and disrupts everything *grins*

TeriD says
hhahahahah I almost said that JT

JT Cheyanne says
We know him well Teri

BookPimp1985 says
Question #1 from BookPimp1985....What's your BOB's name???

TeriD says
True

JT Cheyanne says
*weg* Laz

BookPimp1985 says
LOL!! Love it!

BookPimp1985 says
Question #2 from Kim "Momma"....If you were a crayon what color would you be??

JT Cheyanne says
Cobalt Blue

BookPimp1985 says
By the way if you have a question you can right click on my name and send me a PRIVATE message with your questions everybody!! :D

Momma Talks Alot says
Great answer

JT Cheyanne says
I love all shades of blue but that is my favorite

BookPimp1985 says
Question #3 from BookPimp...What made you decide to go Greek with your book??

JT Cheyanne says
Well, I was asked to write part of an anthology that centered around water.  At first, I thought about some kind of water shifter, but Poseidon kept coming to mind so I went that direction. The story wound up being too long for an anthology.

JT Cheyanne says
But it was accepted on its own.

BookPimp1985 says
Question #4 from In The Abyss...When she is writing, where does she draw her inspiration for her stories??

JT Cheyanne says
Well, my muse is a certain angel. But inspiration comes from everywhere. My brother is in the Navy and Dominic is a Navy SEAL.  I went to see a dance recital for my nieces and this beautiful little dancer slammed a story into my mind.

JT Cheyanne says
A convo with my kids...a joke really inspired one I'm working on now.

BookPimp1985 says
Question #5 from MaryElyse...was this your first book and how long did it take to write it?

JT Cheyanne says
Yes, it is my first book. It took me a few months to write it. I was given a specific deadline which was a good thing. The editing process took a lot longer and required rewrites.

JT Cheyanne says
so in all approximately 10 months

BookPimp1985 says
Question #6 from TeriD..."Do you only write in the paranormal genre?" OR "Ocean's Kiss is an ebook release. Do you plan on someday releaseing in paperback or will your books remain strickly in ebooks?"

JT Cheyanne says
I do prefer the paranormal genre because you have more liberty. When you write in modern day, you have to ensure you get details correct for the reader. If you create your own world, you can do whatever you like. I am not adverse to writing in other genres

JT Cheyanne says
I would love to have a print book published. That is a dream. Epub is easier to access and a quicker turn around.

BookPimp1985 says
Question #7 from Keagan...Does she listen to music when she writes? Is there a playlist she builds as she writes???

JT Cheyanne says
KEAGAN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! *huge grin*

JT Cheyanne says
Yes, I do like to write to music. I have eclectic taste. Some of my favorites are I Won't Give UP, Jason Mraz, That's What Makes you Beautiful, One Direction.  I Will Not Bow, Disturbed. Boulevard of Broken Dreams, Evaneasence (sp) Love Story, Taylor Swift

JT Cheyanne says
Wonderwall, Oasis

Keagan says
anything 80's... *rolls eyes*

JT Cheyanne says
Undisclosed Desires, Muse

JT Cheyanne says
Pour Some Sugar on Me!

JT Cheyanne says
I Can't Fight this Feeling

JT Cheyanne says
Footloose

BookPimp1985 says
Question #8 from Caigh W...Can you give us one piece of advice that was given to you? Something that inspired you to continue working towards your goal of being published.

JT Cheyanne says
*looks at Keagan* WRITE, WRITE, WRITE....and don't let anyone change your voice.

BookPimp1985 says
Question #9 from Keagan ((AGAIN))...What does she do when she misses a writting deadling? Twice?

JT Cheyanne says
I keep writing and promise the redhead...cough cough....the publisher, I'm working on it as hard as I can.

JT Cheyanne says
Seriously, I need deadlines, they are important, even if I missed it, it keeps the story on your mind.

BookPimp1985 says
Question #10 from BookPimp...What's your shoe size? What? Stop looking at me like I'm stupid Keagan!!

JT Cheyanne says
*laughing* depends on the brand, anywhere from 7 1/2 to 8 1/2.

Keagan says
That men's size...

BookPimp1985 says
Question #11 from Kim (Momma)...Did you feel schizophrenic when you were writting this book? Like did the characters talk to you or did the story play out more like a movie reel in your head??

Momma Talks Alot says
Kea I wear an 11 in men's...Just ask Teri. lol

Keagan says
how did you guys found out about her disease?

JT Cheyanne says
Hmmm, this one was more like the movie reel.

BookPimp1985 says
Keagan you ass!! JT don't answer he has to wait his turn!! *Glares at Keagan*

In the Abyss says
~throws popcorn at Keagan, then offers some to Caigh~

Momma Talks Alot says
Cool Thank you!!

JT Cheyanne says
But I do have 'voices' up there. Two are VERY loud and battle over who gets to talk/write.

BookPimp1985 says
LOL

BookPimp1985 says
Question #12 from BookPimp...Most characters are based on real life, are yours??

JT Cheyanne says
I draw names from real life and some events or quotes may come from real life, but the charries so far have not been based on real life. Well the vampire and his love for his angel is very much real life...but his story is still being written.

Keagan says
phantom wee wee disorder

BookPimp1985 says
Question #13 from Keagan (The asshat)...What are some of the future works she's writting??

JT Cheyanne says
I have about 8 of those Keagan

BookPimp1985 says
Question #14 from TeriD...I loved this book so much. Any idea when your next will be released? *no pressure!!*

Keagan says
My ass is a perfect playground thank you very much for bringing it up...

In the Abyss says
~rolls her eyes at KeaKea~

JT Cheyanne says
*laughing* I meant the phantom wee wee thing...about 8 of those... I have one solo project going and a series started with Venus, my writing partner.

JT Cheyanne says
Not sure when the next release will be. Venus and I have a manuscript under contract, but we don't have a release date.

JT Cheyanne says
Teri, I'm so glad you enjoyed the book!

BookPimp1985 says
Question #15 from In The Abyss...Have you always had a passion for writing and if so when did that begin?

JT Cheyanne says
Keagan, Lachi wants access to that playground you keep denying him

Keagan says
HECK NO

Keagan says
I'm scared of him and Teri's drunk.

Keagan says
That was a good eye roll abyss.... *high five8

TeriD says
HEY!! I am being on my best behavior MISTER

JT Cheyanne says
April...I have always had stories in my head, but never thought to put them to paper. Sitting at a traffic light, falling asleep, they would run through my mind and always pick upt where I left off.  I was asked to join a RP group

BookPimp1985 says
Question #16 from Book lover...Will we see a #2 Ocean's Kiss?

JT Cheyanne says
and that's when I was encouraged to put fingers to keys and write my own work.  Kim Smith thank you!

In the Abyss says
~thumbs KeaKea in the forhead, as she give full attention to JT, and smiles~

In the Abyss says
(thumps)

JT Cheyanne says
Yes, I certainly hope so!  I have started Tracker's Kiss which will be Jalen's story. I know Malachi is the wanted SEAL, but Jalen spoke up first.

Momma Talks Alot says
GUYS....OPEN CHAT IS AFTER THE Q&A Please keep the chit chat down during this time. Thank you

BookPimp1985 says
Question #17 from Keagan...How does she research what she writes??

JT Cheyanne says
The internet. It's a gold mine, I found out alot about the SEALs from their own website.

BookPimp1985 says
Question #18 from Caigh W...Did you enjoy writing before becoming involved in RP? (chicken or the egg?) Did you start RP'ing because you enjoyed writing, or did you start writing because you enjoyed RP?

JT Cheyanne says
I didn't write anything before RP. I was a fan, hanging out and chatting up the players. One day out of the blue, an admin asked me to write a character. Through the process I wound up with my own original character, Les. It was amazing.

BookPimp1985 says
Question #19 from MaryElyse...For new hopeful writers, what comes first?  Write the book or contact a publisher?

JT Cheyanne says
You can do it both ways.  You can find the publishers on the internet.  Alot of them have submission calls, or categories they accept. You can read their guidelines and follow them, and their rules for submission are on the site.

BookPimp1985 says
Question #20 from BookPimp...Kilts? Yay or nay??

JT Cheyanne says
Or you can write your story and submit it according to the guidelines.

JT Cheyanne says
YES! Kilts are hawtness and so are the accents.

BookPimp1985 says
Question #21 from In the Abyss: Question: Do you feel or see these stories will develope into becoming a series?

JT Cheyanne says
Ocean's Kiss did not start out to be part of a series. But, when I had friends/family read it for critique, the females wanted Malachi. However, when I started to write his story, Jalen spoke up first.

JT Cheyanne says
The solo work II"m doing now will be a sole title. It depends on the characters involved I think.

BookPimp1985 says
Question #22 from BookPimp...Do you watch Doctor Who? If not start.

JT Cheyanne says

BookPimp1985 says

Wow! That's hard.....Lover Revealed, Lover Unbound, Ender's Game, Special Forces, Murder Game

BookPimp1985 says
