Author Interview: Asher Frend

• What inspired you to write your latest book?

 I thought the song by Kate Hill, "Running Up a Hill," would make a great story. 

• What is your favorite book/genre to read?

 I love historical fiction, and my current favorite book is "Under the Same Stars" By Libba Bray.

• What themes do you find yourself returning to in your work?

Friendship, Found family, Faith.

• How do you handle writer’s block?

Go back and revise what I've written, and then ask the "what if the character did this?" questions until I'm out of it.

• What do you hope readers take away from your stories?

That tragedies may occur, but there's always hope. 

• What’s the best piece of advice you’ve received as a writer?

Use workshops and other writers to help hone your craft.

• If you could meet any character from your books, who would it be and why?

I'd love to sit down with Mikaila Emery and pick her brain. 

• Where can readers find your books? Where can they follow you online?

The e-book will be available on Kindle Unlimited through Amazon, and the physical copy will be available on a link on my website: www.asherfrend.com.
