Jennifer Snyder has written Marked, Changed and Shattered Soul.
1. What is your
name and where do you call home?
Jennifer Snyder
2. Do you have
a pen name?
No
3. Do you gift
books to readers for book reviews?
Yes, I do gift
books to select readers for reviews.
4. How did you
come up with the cover? Who designed the cover of your book?
The covers for
both Marked and Changed were ones I came up with on my own, at least the idea
of them. My ideas and the design process were completed by the very talented
Stephanie Mooney of Mooney Designs.
5. Is there
anything you would change about your book covers?
Ask me in a few
years, as for right now though…I love them all just the way they are!
6. Would you
have different book covers for different countries?
No, I’m not a
big fan of the “different book covers for different countries.”
7. Do you have
a book trailer? And what are your thoughts on book trailers?
No, I don’t
have a book trailer for any of my books. I really enjoy them. I think they are
a pretty cool little extra, but I just haven’t gotten around to creating my own.
8. Do you
prefer e-books, paperbacks, hardcovers or audiobooks?
My husband
bought me an e-reader a little over a year ago and I absolutely love it!
E-books are my top pick at the moment, but if I really enjoy the book I’ll buy
it in paperback as well for my bookshelf. I do prefer paperbacks over hardbacks
and I’ve honestly never listened to an audiobook before so I don’t know how I
feel about them.
9. Are you a
self-published / Indie author?
Yes, I am.
10. Have you
ever read a book more than once? And if so what was it?
Definitely!
Interview With A Vampire by Anne Rice and Blood And Chocolate by Annette Curtis
Klause are the two on my shelf that have the most worn out spines from loads of
rereads! As for an ebook
reread—Beautiful Disaster by Jamie McGuire.
11. Have you
ever read a book just based on its cover?
No, I actually
haven’t. The cover does help in persuading me to read the book, but I have to
be drawn in by the blurb to buy it.
12. Has the
quality of the cover of a book ever put you off of reading it?
Yes. Horrible I
know, but I am guilty of this.
13. What is
your favorite film based on a book?
The Hunger
Games! Only time I have ever enjoyed the movie as much as the book!
14. What is
your favorite book genre at the moment?
Young Adult Paranormal
Romance
15. Do you have
any advice for other writers? And what’s the best advice that you have been
given when it comes to writing?
My advice to
any new authors would be to make sure you have a thick skin going into this business,
because if you don’t you will gain one. Hire a cover artist AND an editor. Both
are worth their weight in gold. And always remember: “Not every book you write
is going to be a bestseller, but that doesn’t mean you should stop writing.” ;)
As for the advice I was given, I was always told to hire an editor from day
one.
