Inside the Author's Studio with Farrah Rochon w/ Book Giveaway

INSIDE THE AUTHOR'S STUDIO!
Happy Monday!
I'm starting something new on my blog. I have a healthy ego and I fancy myself like James Lipton, but instead of Inside the Actor's Studio, I'm having Inside the Author's Studio. And I'm honored to have for my first guest:
Farrah Rochon
A native of south Louisiana, Farrah Rochon officially began her writing career while waiting in between classes in the student lounge at Xavier University of Louisiana. After earning her Bachelors of Science degree and a Masters of Arts from Southeastern Louisiana University, Farrah decided to pursue her lifelong dream of becoming a published novelist. She was named Shades of Romance Magazine's Best New Author of 2007. Her debut novel garnered rave reviews, earning Farrah several SORMAG Readers' Choice Awards.
When she is not writing in her favorite coffee shop, Farrah spends most of her time reading her favorite romance novels. An admitted sports fanatic, Farrah feeds her addiction to football by watching New Orleans Saints games on Sunday afternoons.

(Try figuring out that mix).
What's the scariest thing you've ever done?
Back-talked my mama (only did it one time, and I learned from my mistake).
What inspired you to start writing?
When my favorite college professor, Dr. Y. Dubois-Williams (granddaughter of WEB Dubois) told me one day that I should.

Great interview! I feel like I know the real Farrah Rochon. :) Do you keep in touch with Dr. Dubois-Williams? I'm certain she would be proud of your success and her part in encouraging you.
Best!
Patricia
