Interview and Contest with Nadia Lee
INSIDE THE AUTHOR'S STUDIO
WITH
NADIA LEE
She shares an apartment overlooking a river and palm trees in Japan with her husband, winter white hamsters and an ever-widening pile of books. When she's not writing, she can be found digging through old Asian historical texts or planning another trip.
Describe yourself in one sentence?
A bilingual expat writer who loves to read, eat, travel and
enjoy life.
What are the one record, book, and food, you'd take to a
desert island?
Ohh...tough one.
Record: The Complete Beethoven Symphonies
Book: Can I just
cheat and take my fully loaded Kindle? No? All right. I'll
take IN CONQUEST BORN by C.S. Friedman
Food: Fresh
strawberries
What did you want to be when you were growing up?
A plastic surgeon.
Which book do you wish you'd written?
LOVING EVANGELINE by Linda Howard
What makes you happy?
A lovely sunny morning spent with my husband and new baby
boy. :)
What makes you angry?
Cruelty toward those who are weaker and more vulnerable than
we are.
Name five people how you'd like to invite to a dinner
party?
Provided that we can invite the dead, living, fictional and
real: Sherlock
Holmes, Julius Caesar, Oscar Wilde, Qin Shi Huang (the
Emperor of Qin
Dynasty), Hwang Jin Yi (a famous kisen from Joseon Dynasty)
What's the scariest thing you've ever done?
Give birth. It was scarier than swimming with sharks and
getting bitten.
What inspired you to start writing?
I've always dabbled, though I didn't get serious until about
seven years ago
or so. I have no idea
why I started or how I got started except that I
enjoyed sketching little scenes.
Where would you most like to live?
Right now, I'm happy where I am (Japan). But I'd love to spend a few years
in France and Singapore.
What is your favorite curse word?
D**** it!
Who is your favorite man-candy?
For now, it's Hugh Jackman.
Sum up your latest release in no more than twelve words!

I just can't say no to cute
The story is totally cute and has a great message about not looking for romance novels and fairy tales for your happily ever after.
Not entering the giveaway, just wanted to say that I really enjoyed the novella you are giving away & I loved your interview questions. Mine are so boring in comparison!
No one's going to argue with your selection of man candy! I hope you'll visit my country, Malaysia sometime in the future too.

Yay! So many Hugh Jackman fans! :D
Lynette & Colette -- Thank you so much for kind words on my novella!
Linda -- I soooo want to visit Malaysia! It's definitely on my list of places to go as soon as the Boy is old enough to travel well.
Did you say swimming and bitten by a shark? WOW!
And yes I would vote for Hugh to be on the island and at dinner! (hehehee)
A fun interview. I love Hugh Jackman too.
"A Happily Ever After of Her Own" looks just wonderful.
