Four Word Interview–Editor Donna O’Brien
Hey, everyone, Emma Martin here. Today’s victim guest is Super Editor, Donna O’Brien.
I’m kinda partial to her since she’s working on all my stories. And I’m hearing little whispers that Violet Midnight might be ready for a March 2012 release…so we’ll see what happens.
Okay, Donna, tell us about yourself:
I‘ve been married for 25 years to my real life hero (and that’s not a clichรฉ – this man defied death itself for his family). I have wonderful kids who are supportive and amaze me every day. I love all things associated with books, those that I’ve read and those that have yet to be written.
Thanks for hanging out with us, Donna.
Thanks for having me. I’m so excited about editing your books. I can’t wait for everyone else to get to know you better. But for now, your books are ALL MINE! ๐

SWEET. Okay. Here we go…

Emma Martin: Favorite time of day….
Donna O’Brien: Wee hours of morning
~~~
EM: Fondest childhood memory is . . .
DO: Playing dolls with Mom
~~~
EM: Favorite food to eat . . .
DO: Cheese! Cheese and wine!
~~~
EM: If granted one wish. . .
DO: Everyone to get HEA.

Awesome. So, you’re a morning person like Lynn, huh? That’s cool. Considering I don’t sleep at all, I get to see pretty much EVERY hour of the day, and I’d have to say my fave is sunrise. It means I made it through another night.
Okay, readers…I dare you to answer ONE of these questions in the comments.

Donna OBrien
Thanks Jillian!
EMMA MARTIN
Sorry for the delay in replying to your comments. Those freaking Vamps came out IN THE DAYTIME! Yep, something’s going down on this little campus here. Just need to figure out what…
But thanks for coming by, everyone!
Donna OBrien
Oh my gosh Emma! I was attacked by technology vamps too! They stole my posting ability yesterday! So sorry I wasn’t here to comment, but I’ll see if I can sneak some comments in today!
Kendall Grey
Hi Donna! *Waving* I especially like your last answer. Everyone deserves an HEA!
EMMA MARTIN
Hi, Kendall. I’ve been following your upcoming trilogy a little bit. Gavin especially. He’s quite a character. Lynn’s read two of the three books in your trilogy, but won’t let me. I’ll have to buy the books when they come out because she says they’re super good!
Donna OBrien
Hi Kendall! *waves back* Thanks. I really do believe that everyone SHOULD get an HEA, but am realistic to know that it doesn’t happen. But a girl can dream, can’t she?
Lindsay

EMMA MARTIN
Jules. Sweet name, by the way! I’ll have to take your word on the Nom Nom Nom part, considering I don’t eat. As in ever. LOL. But I know Lynn adores chocolate, so maybe she’ll give it a try and let me know how it goes. Thanks for stopping by!
Donna OBrien
Jules — Shortbread and chocolate sound pretty awesome too!
Jen Daiker
