Chat with author Emily Snow, writer of Devoured, Tidal and All Over
You

lalamrcds: Hi :)

LoverKaren: Hi lalamrcds, can I call you LaLa

Lover Tiffany: Good evening everyone :)

Regina: Hello everyone

Emily Snow: Evening, everyone! :)

LoverKaren: Welcome everyone,

Ellen: hi

LoverKaren: Hi Emily,

LoverKaren: Let's start this chat off. Does anyone have a question for
Emily?

LoverKaren: Don't be shy?

Emily Snow: Agreed, don't be shy! I love questions :)

Kristina: Hi Emily....Love all of your books...Tidal especially....are we
going to see move of Cooper and Willow?

lalamrcds: Yes, more Cooper and Willow please! :)

stanley: how long did it take you to right Devoured? oh and Hi! I love
your books!!

Ellen: Emily have you written any books that you didn't publish?

Emily Snow: Hey Kristina! So happy to hear you enjoyed my books!!!

There won't be another Willow and Cooper story (at least I don't think
so!) but those two are definitely showing up in my next new adult
romance, "Lucky Me", which will be out later this year!

LLM: hi

Abbie D: YAYYYYY

LoverMichelle: If your question gets missed, just ask it again. :D

Kristina: Yeah :-X

LLM: I just read All over You and LOVED IT

Emily Snow: Hey Stanley! Devoured took me about a month to write!

stanley: Thats it? awesome! Love it! :)

lalamrcds: Do ideas just pop into your head for a story or does
something trigger/inspire it?

Lover Tiffany: Great questions!

Emily Snow: @Ellen, I have a few books that I've written that haven't
been published, but they're mostly fantasy. :D
stanley: How long have you been writing for? What inspired you to
become an author?

Abbie D: Em, from start to finish, how long did it take for you to fully
write Devoured?

LLM: What inspired you the most to write?

Emily Snow: Usually something triggers an idea for me, Lala. Devoured
was triggered after I watched the Red Riding Hood episode of Once
Upon a Time.

Emily Snow: And Tidal came about after I read a Yahoo OMG article
about Amanda Bynes.

Abbie D: Hi Kelli Maine ;)

lalamrcds: I love that show. Gonna definitely look at that episode

differently now. ;)

Ellen: When you get an idea of a new book, do you have a specific
process? Or do you just sit down and start writing?

Kristina: who is your favorite book character?

stanley: hahaha! :D

LLM: Do you have a routine before beginning to write? Something that

relax you, make you feel comfortable?

Emily Snow: I've been writing for a few years, Stanley. I've always
loved reading, and coming up with stories, so I started writing books. I
started with YA, though!

Emily Snow: *waves to Kelli* :)

LoverKaren: Great Question!

lalamrcds: I follow your playlists on Spotify. Is that music you are
listening to as you write that maybe inpires what direction you might
go in or just songs that maybe make you think of your characters and
their story?

LoverKaren: Hi Kelli

stanley: If you could pick an actress to play Sienna who would you
choose?

Abbie D: Jess from True Blood

LLM: ;;)

LoverKaren: Please jump in with your questions, if your question is

missed ask it again.

Abbie D: sorry Em, answering what I know *shrugs*

Emily Snow: I usually just sit down and start writing, Ellen. I've tried
outlining and end up making a long, detailed document that I never
use.

lydiajlynn joined the chat 60 minutes ago

kelli maine: Hi :-)

Lover Tiffany: welcome!

lydiajlynn: Hey Everyone

stanley: Thats who I picture too

Emily Snow: Kristina, my favorite book character are Katniss Everdeen

and Tristran Thorn!

Abbie D: Kelli! what up guuurl?

LoverKaren: Emily your Fav book characters are very interesting. Can I
ask why, those two?
Emily Snow: Good question, Lala! Quite a bit of my playlist is what I'm
listening to as I write, but there are a few songs that make it on there
because they really fit my characters or a particular scene.

LLM: Which was the most difficult scene of any of your books to write?

lalamrcds: They are awesome playlists!

stanley: Do life experiences help you write your books?

Regina: Emily, you are a new to me author. The Lovers have introduced
me to some amazing authors. Where do you recommend I start with
your books?

Abbie D: Em, from start to finish, in summation, how long did it it take
it you to write Devoured?

LoverKaren: LOVE YOU Regina :-X

Emily Snow: Sure, Karen! The Hunger Games and Stardust are two of
my favorite books. Katniss is so bad ass and amazing and Tristran
made me swoon.

lalamrcds: Do you write a little bit of yourself into any of your

characters?

LoverKaren: Awww Tristran

Emily Snow: Hmm, LLM. I would have to say the most difficult scenes
for me to write are arguments, especially the Lucas and Sienna
confrontations!

Emily Snow: I may have once told my husband to argue with me for the
sake of a scene, but shhhh! ;)

lalamrcds: lol

LoverKaren: Lol
Ellen: lol

LLM: lol !!!

stanley: haha

lydiajlynn: lol

Kristina: LOL....

Emily Snow: Stanley, I don't use very many life experiences in my

books.
stanley: I was just curious. Thanks!

Lover Tiffany: Was the finished product close to the first ideas you had
for "Devoured"?
Or did certain storylines, characters, etc change in the writing
process?

Emily Snow: BUT, my husband is responsible for the Google is your

friend line

lalamrcds: that's a great line!

Ellen: loved that

LoverKaren: Please feel free to ask Emily questions about her books
and fabulous characters.

Kristina: awwww I LOVE that line... :)

Abbie D: husband=genuis

LLM: That line is so TRUE!!

Ellen: When writing a new story are you ever afraid they the fans won't
like it?

Abbie D: from start to finish, in summation, how long did it it take it

you to write Devoured?
Kristina: Who would your ideal cast for Cooper & Willow be?

Emily Snow: It took about a month, Abbie, with the majority being
written over the course of a couple weeks!

Regina: So, is Devoured a good place for me to start?

Abbie D: wow..impressive

Emily Snow: Thanks so much, Regina! I'd suggest starting with

Devoured and then All Over You

LLM: Ohh! I started with All Over You, and I'm reading Devoured now! :(

Emily Snow: But you can also read it in the other order!

LoverKaren: Emily, you wrote such a powerful character in Lucas, did

Lucas come fully formed to your imagination or was he more like a
onion, you needing to pull back the layers to discover him.

Regina: Thanks :)
Grace: When do you think consumed will be released and will it be the
final book in the series?

Emily Snow: Lucas was/ is an onion, Karen, lol. I continued to find out
more about him even as I wrote Consumed!

lalamrcds: Do you write a little bit of yourself into any of your

characters?

LLM: I'm good, then! I was worried. Whew!

Abbie D: wheres that italian Kelli? ;)

Emily Snow: Consumed will be released this summer, Grace. It's going
to be the final Lucas/ Sienna book, but I'm also working on a book
about Lucas's sister, Kylie!

LLM: YAY! I want to know about Kylie!

Abbie D: Kylies so hot

Abbie D: Blue hair don't care

Abbie D: Lucas, where did he come from Em

Abbie D: Dream? Fantasy?

Abbie D: Etc Etc Etc?

Emily Snow: Lala, there's a little of me in my characters! Like, Willow's

not a great swimmer and neither am I. And I'm tall, like Sienna.

Grace: Good to know I can't wait to read consumed and I loved all your
books. I can't wait to read what u have coming up :)

Emily Snow: LOL, Abbie!

Abbie D: hehehe

Emily Snow: Lucas came from staring at my Jared Padalecki

screensaver and listening to Framing Hanley while staring at a blank
word document, lol!

Abbie D: nicely done.

Abbie D: how tall r u

Emily Snow: I put the two together and said, Oh boy! Hot tall rocker?
Yes please!

Emily Snow: I'm almost 5 foot ten.

Abbie D: PLEASE AND THANK YOU

Emily Snow: Thanks, LLM! Can't wait to see what you think of Kylie! :)

Abbie D: dang girl!

LoverKaren: Emily, when you wrote the ending of Devoured did you
have a sequel already in the works?

Abbie D: zexy

Emily Snow: Karen, yes, I had a sequel in the works. I realized halfway
through writing it that there would be a sequel.

kelli maine: When will we see paperbacks in the stores?

Lover Tiffany: Emiliy, was the finished book close to the first ideas you
had for "Devoured"? Or were certain storylines, characters, etc
changed in the writing process?

LoverKaren: Because honestly I needed another ten chapters. ;;)

lalamrcds: Do you have any new series/stand alones in the works that
aren't related to Devoured or Tidal?

Emily Snow: Kelli, it will be in stores early summer! And I get to reveal
the new covers soon--I'm so excited!

Kristina: what book if any are your currently reading? Who is your
favorite author?

kelli maine: :D

Emily Snow: The finished book was very different from my first idea.
Lucas originally came from a really messed up family and there was no
Kylie!

Abbie D: kelli those are some big teeth :0

Abbie D: :)

Lover Tiffany: oh no!! I love Kylie!

Emily Snow: Karen, the paperback version is much longer than the
original!
LoverKaren: After Consumed is release, what book plans do you have?

Abbie D: what was your Kylie creation?

Emily Snow: Kristina, I'm reading "If I Were You". I just bought it a few
days ago!

Ellen: Do you ever start a story and realize that you don't like it and
delete the whole thing?

Emily Snow: Lala, I have a few new ideas in the works that aren't
related to those books. Hopefully, I'll be releasing one of those before
the end of this year!

Abbie D: as in who or what spawned it if it/she wasn't part of your

original story?

LoverKaren: Hello Michelle, Welcome to the chat

Michelle Valentine: Thanks. :)

Emily Snow: Abbie, Kylie just kind of pushed her way into the book. She
came to me as I was writing and I couldn't get rid of her.

Grace: Do you read on a e-reader or paper which do you prefer.

Abbie D: I can totally get that.. she is pretty aggressive..

LoverKaren: Everyone feel free to jump in and ask Emily a question.

Heidi: Do you write every day? What do you enjoy doing in your time
off?

Emily Snow: I read on both, Grace, but mostly paperback

lalamrcds: Do you keep notes or summaries about your characters as

you write, maybe to keep track of all the details?

Kristina: Who would your ideal cast for Cooper & Willow be?
Emily Snow: I usually try to write everyday, unless my kids refuse to let
me lol. *glares across the room at one-year-old adversary* lol

lalamrcds: lol

Ellen: Do you have a favorite time of day to write? Or just whenever

you can?

LoverKaren: One Year Olds, can be tough critics

Emily Snow: Lala, I keep notes in Scrivener along with pictures of what
my characters look like. It keeps me pretty organized!

Heidi: One year old never mind the question about free time! LOL

Emily Snow: Ideal cast for Tidal would definitely be Liz Gillies as
Willow and Liam Hemsworth as Cooper, Kristina!

Abbie D: so would you say you are a very visual person?

Emily Snow: Agreed, Karen. One year olds are the toughest!

Kristina: just googled Liz Gillies....LOVE! and yes of course Liam

Hemsworth... :D

Michelle Valentine: Em is Mega Mom! I don't know how she does it

all. :)

Emily Snow: Ellen, usually I just write whenever I can, but I prefer first
thing in the morning if I don't oversleep!

Lover Tiffany: What's the one thing about Devoured that you've heard
the most feedback from via fans?

Emily Snow: <3 Michelle!

Abbie D: have you always had your beta girls from the beginning?

Abbie D: how to y'all meet?

Emily Snow: I've heard from a lot of people wanting to know what it is
Sam has on Lucas, Tiffany

Abbie D: yes...and????

Lover Tiffany: YES!!!! Will we find out in Consumed??

Emily Snow: Yes! You will DEFINITELY find out in Consumed! It's a big
part of the book!

Abbie D: oh damn...

Kristina: Yes!!!! sooo excited!!

Abbie D: how clues?? ;)

LoverKaren: Are there any upcoming events that you would like to tell
us about? Who all is the Naughty Mafia and how did you come up with
the name
Grace: Can't wait to find out lol

Emily Snow: You trying to bribe me, Abbie? ;)

Abbie D: always...
