Sierra DeMulder: Want to interview me?

sierrademulder:

So here is the dealio: my second book is being released by Write Bloody Publishing at the end of January. I am extremely proud of this book and all the hard work I put into it. I can honestly say that I evolved during the writing process and that is one of the most rewarding feelings I have ever felt as an artist.

Sierra, what does this have to do with me? I’ll tell you. This book is very different from my first (in good ways, I assure you) and I wanted the chance to talk about it with y’all first. But me talking about just my book is boring, no?

So, ask me a question. It can be about my writing process, my book title, my preferred footwear, my favorite poets, anything. It will be like a weird, online truth or dare game, without the dare and teen-angst. I am going to collect my favorite questions and answer all your curiosities in a youtube video, as well as talk about exciting details about my book! Sound good? Any questions? I hope so…

Find the ask button on my tumblr page, facebook message me or email me at sierrademulder@gmail.com. Thanks! xo Sierra
