AUTHOR SPOTLIGHT:

L.J. SELLERS with H.S. Clark

Video Interview

To all mystery and thriller writers, readers, and fans,

I recently attended the Left Coast Crime mystery conference in Monterey, California, where I was privileged to be on the “Thrills and Chills, Medical and Psychological Thrillers” panel with several other great writers. I also got to participate in the New Author’s breakfast, and sign a bunch of copies of my medical thriller, SECRET THOUGHTS. But my biggest thrill was interviewing 10 great authors on video. This was a first time project for me, and a major learning experience. I know that these interviews are exciting and informative, because I personally learned so much about these wonderful authors. It was information that I could not have found out by any other means. At a busy meeting like Left Coast Crime, getting 10 minutes of a bestselling author’s time can be a monumental task!

Two days after I got back to Seattle from the California conference, my mother passed away, leaving me in a state of quiet contemplation and grief. Thanks to friends and family, I’m recovering from my loss. Burying myself in this video interview project has been therapeutic. These 10 videos represent my first naïve efforts, and I know that quality here leaves room for improvement. I’m already planning equipment and software upgrades for future video interviews, but the current raw video is all I have to work with. Most of the raw videos are good to excellent, but a few need some digital resuscitation.

My most startling revelation about these authors is how very diverse they are, in backgrounds, styles, and in the unique flare that each brings to the mystery and thriller genre.

My first interview is with bestselling author L.J. Sellers.

Thanks to all who made this possible, and enjoy!

H. S. Clark
