**Q&A with Gerri Brousseau**
What
inspired you to write To Kill a Monarch?
You know, I’m not really sure. One day I started to think
about the time of Napoleon. I often times ask myself “what if” and that day I
wondered what would happen if Napoleon reached into England and attempted to
assassinate the Monarch. My mind started spinning the plot and To Kill a
Monarch was born.
How
long does it take you to write a book?
It usually takes me 4-6 weeks. I use the “fast fiction”
method which means I turn off my “inner editor” and just write. Once I reach
the end, I then go back to the beginning and start the editing.
Does
your latest book cross over to other genres? If so, what are they?
Yes. It is an intrigue romance.
What is
the most important thing you do for your career?
Keep writing. You are only as good as your next book.
If you
were secluded on a desert island, what would be your three must have books.
Pride and Prejudice, Gone With the Wind, and (not sure it
counts as one) the Harry Potter Series.
What do
you like to do when you’re not writing?
Spend time with family, especially my 1-year old
granddaughter. I also love to read.
