1) Tell us a brief bit about yourself.
Evonne Wareham - from Wales. I live on what used to be an island, surrounded by water on three sides. The dominant species in my home is house plant - so it is nice and quiet for me to write.
2) What's your story about in a nutshell (ooo look, it's me in a nutshell!)?
Out of Sight, Out of Mind - Mind-reader meets mind-reader. Love and mayhem. Bad guys meet nasty end.
3) Is it true you write in a trance?
Only when sleepwalking.
4) Don't you secretly wish the other contestants would just drop out?
Of course. I have ten wax images here in front of me, all with pins through the heart. Wait a minute - ten? I've included myself in there. That's probably why it isn't working. (Only kidding guys - love you really.)
5) What is your favorite paranormal being and why?
Tough one - I am partial to one or two of Sherrilyn Kenyon's werewolves and Dark Hunters.
6) Ever had a paranormal experience yourself?
No - but I do occasionally have mildly psychic experiences. Very mild. But don't we all?
7) What's your writing ritual?
I'm an old fashioned girl - pen, paper and a comfy seat. I like writing on trains.
8) How much are you going to pee yourself if you win?
I refuse to answer that on the grounds that it may incriminate me.
9) If you could mud-wrestle any author, who would it be and why?
The actor Jeremy Northam played a Victorian writer in the film Possession. It has to be him. And I want the mud heated to body temperature, please.
10) What kind of underpants would your main character wear?
Boxers for him, probably. Something lacy for her.
11) You have to pick two cartoon characters to duke it out in a colossal battle, Godzilla-style. Who would you pick and how would it throw down?
I have no idea. I was so traumatised when Bambi's mother was killed I haven't watched a cartoon since.
12) Alliance or Horde? Peas or carrots? Franks or beans?
Fish or chips? Fred or Ginger? Sane or crazy?
Thanks Evonne! |
Hi Evonne, I know, I know, I was traumatized when Bambi's mother was slain. I will absolutely never forget that moment, in he backseat of our car at a drive-in theater -- but the rest of the cartoon feature was so wonderful, I was hooked on Disney for a long time.
Please, you all are going to make me cry!
Oh, my. Jeremy Northam was drool worthy is Possession, was he not?
See, this is why we need public service announcements about the dangers of playing with wax images! :)
Add me to the list of Jeremy Northam fans. Hey Evonne, could you try slicing a little wax off around the hips on my wax figure? I'll let you know if it works. Voodoo weight loss could make you a fortune!
Voodoo weight loss. That's the paranormal ticket, gals. Why we'd have enough business to make us all rich! Rich! Rich! Then we could afford that expensive dress in Evonne's first line.
I'm working on the voodoo weight loss. Glad I'm not the only Jeremy Northam fan. Being a Brit, I have the advantage of seeing him on stage - in fact I think I have seen just about every stage performance he has done - I also have a theatre poster on my wall of JN in a punt.
