T n'T's Confidential: Jorja Lovett (GIVEAWAY)

Welcome everyone to another T n'T's Confidential post with your favorite authors! Today we have Jorja
Lovett visiting us and sharing  a little about herself and her recent release Jackie and her Loose Talk.  

Jorja is giving away a book from her back catalogue. To find out how to participate just read on! 


Welcome Jorja! Why don’t you start by telling us a little about your most recent release…

 Hi, thanks for having me today to tell you about my new release, Jackie and her Loose talk. It’s part of Evernight Publishing’s Naughty Fairy Tale line and is a modern take on the Jack and the Beanstalk story.

Blurb:
Jackie Thompson is the kiss and tell queen, prepared to sleep her way to fame and fortune. Her latest escapade with two footballers is on course to secure her future, but she trades it for a handful of magic beans…or in this case, the address of a reclusive billionaire.
Scarred by his past, Viktor Torok hides away from the outside world. When Jackie barges into his life he lets her get away in an effort to protect his privacy. But he hasn’t counted on the unwanted attraction that rages between them on their second meet.
Can she break through his walls and help them heal each other?

What's your favorite part of a book?

I really love the first chapter. It tells you everything you need to know about the book – Is it well written? Are the characters likeable? Do I want to read on? I love writing that initial meet between my main characters too.

Have you always wanted to be a writer?

Absolutely. I spent my childhood writing stories and reading far more books than was probably normal lol

 What gets you in the mood to write?

I’m such a lazy sod. I could have the whole story written in my head but when it comes to getting it down on paper, I could win a gold medal for procrastination. Generally, I need peace and quiet, a notebook and pen and some chocolate to get in the mood.

Do you have a writing routine? What is it?

I don’t have a set routine really, except for locking myself away from the kids for that elusive peace and quiet. I find my stories flow better if I write them longhand first and then I edit as I type, so it can be a long process.

 The story “Up All Night” is part of the Keyboards and Kink Anthology. Have you ever had any online relationships?

Well, I’ve been happily married since before the internet was invented lol But in saying that, I have struck up some fabulous friendships online, especially with other writers. I found my crit group on there and I couldn’t be without them now.

 If you could go anywhere in the world, where would it be and why?

I dream of staying on a desert island somewhere with my other half. I can’t think of anything better than having fabulous scenery, wonderful weather, no other people to bug us and nothing to distract me from my writing. He would probably spend his days fishing too lol

Favorite fairy tale when you were a child? And when you reached adult hood?

We were quite poor and I read Cinderella so many times, wishing for a fairy godmother to give me a fabulous makeover! These days, of course, Jack and the Beanstalk is high on my list of favorites *grin*

Favorite drink

I drink more cups of tea than anything but I am partial to a glass of Sangria.

Favorite song

Much to my teenage son’s disgust, LMFAO’s ‘Sexy and I Know it’ is my recent favorite. He just loves it when I sing that when his friends are within earshot.
