#WOTR23 #attendingauthor – Robyn Peterman

Robyn Peterman

Tell us your name and then a bit about yourself.

NYT and USA Today best selling author, Robyn Peterman writes because the people inside her head won’t leave her alone until she gives them life on paper. She writes snarky, sexy, funny paranormal and snarky, sexy, funny contemporaries.
Her addictions include laughing really hard with friends, shoes (the expensive kind), Target, Coke (the drink, not the drug LOL) with extra ice in a Yeti cup, bejeweled reading glasses, her kids, her super-hot hubby and collecting stray animals.
A former professional actress, with Broadway, film and T.V. credits, she now lives in the south with her family and too many animals to count. Writing gives her peace and makes her whole, plus having a job where she can work in her sweatpants works really well for her.

When you are writing a book, which is harder? The first book in the series or the others after it?

All books are hard. All books are easy. LOL I pants so I have to feel it. To me, they’re each like a child—beautiful in their own ways. So, to answer the question, none are harder or easier than others. They’re all their own special, wonderful, hilarious nightmares. 

 When writing a series how do you keep things fresh, for both your readers and also yourself?

I have no idea. If a story speaks to me and makes me happy, I can only hope a reader will enjoy it. My characters live in my head and when one is talking really loudly, I write that book. 

Writing can be an emotionally draining and stressful pursuit. Any tips for aspiring writers?

I don’t find the writing emotionally draining, it’s the rest of the stuff I have to do that wears me out. Writing stories is my passion. However, I do walk and exercise to keep my head clear and to make sure my ass doesn’t become one with my office chair. If you’re stressed find an outlet to destress— yoga, meditation, walking, a writing group.

On a typical day, how much time do you spend writing?

Umm… a shitload. LOL I pretty much work all the time. I’m going for better work/life balance this year. Wish me luck. 

Do you have a favorite character that you have written? If so, who? And what makes them so special.

Don’t tell the others, but I have great fondness for Satan aka Blade Inferno aka Uncle Fucker. He’s just so hilariously wrong, he’s all kinds of right.

If any of your books were to be made into a movie, who are the celebrities that would star in it? What book and who?

The Good to the Last Death Series has been optioned. I refuse to say who I would like in the roles. It’s bad luck. LOL 

What is your definition of success?

A happy family, great friends… and lots of pets.
