![]() ![]() ![]() I’ve always told authors as an editor, I can fix text on the page, but I can’t fix a blank one. Kris: I don’t know that I’ve received any advice on writing except write. Lisa: What’s the best piece of writing/author advice you’ve ever received that you’d pass on to someone just getting started in the business? I think the first one on one scene with Mooney and Scott (one of the main characters) sets up his personality and the balance for the story. He’s a secondary character that decided he was going to help out the main characters get together. Kris: The character of First Sergeant Luna aka Mooney snuck up on me as I was writing. Lisa: What’s your favorite scene in Wait for Me, and what makes it a fave? I like people and being around them but after a while I need quiet. Kris, let’s start by having you tell us something about yourself that most people don’t know. For those of you who don’t know, Kris is the long-time editor in chief at MLR Press, so this is a change of hats for her. Lisa: Welcome to author Kris Jacen, who’s joining us today to celebrate the release of her debut novel, Wait for Me. ![]()
