An exclusive interview with DiskUs author Candace Gold
Where do you Live? - Long Island, New York
Where can fans write you? - Truconfwrtr@msn.com
What's your writer's day like? -
For me, I try to write a few hours each day on whatever story I'm working on. Then it's off to work at my regular job as a tech/receptionist for an eye doctor in a busy office.
Tell us about your family. -
I have two grown boys who tried to bring me up the best they could. I hope I haven't failed them. Honestly they're wonderful. As for my husband, when I told him I wanted to write, he laughed. He stopped laughing after he saw I got paid for my work. Now he's quite supportive.
Do you have any pets? -
Recently our black Lab passed away and I doubt if there'll ever be another dog like Fred.
Any hobbies? -
Music and reading are my passions.
What do you enjoy doing during your leisure time?
I find lately that I have little, but I like to travel out to Arizona to visit with my son and see places I've never been to.
Who's your favorite author?
This is really tough. There are so many great writers out there, some are even my friends. But I guess I'll have to say O'Henry. The irony of his short stories are phenomenal. I enjoy reading and writing stories that have a twist to them. I hate reading a suspense book in which I'm able to figure out the ending before I get there.
What's your favorite book?
The Second Lady by Irving Wallace because of his spectacular ending.
What's your favorite movie? - Casablanca
What's your favorite place? - Las Vegas at night
What place, that you haven't visited before, would you like to visit? - California
What's your favorite music?
This is tough, too. Soundtracks or instrumentals.
