Welcome to Immortality
and Beyond. May I offer you a drink?
Thank you for inviting me to
Immortality and Beyond. I would love a drink, Vampires Wine. I have
to keep my head on straight while being interviewed.
Zar, our Zombie Butler
will fetch that for you. Zar…
Thank you Zar
*Drools* while handing
drink over…
*Rolling eyes* You may
return to your quarters now. Please don’t mind him, sometimes he
just gets so excited when we have guest authors. He’s only ever
bitten somebody once,
*grins*.
Zar, is very tall and such a gentleman
for a Zombie Butler.
Thank you, Zar.
I’m not worried about him biting, I
bite back. *grinning*
Now that we’re settled
in, let’s chat. Shall we?
Of course, let’s
us chat.
BK: How did your writing
journey begin?
My writing journey began after
finding out that an old friend of mind had written a script that was
being turned into a movie.
My thoughts were, “If he can write a
script, then I can write a book.” That’s when the book came
about.
BK: Please share with us
how your current release came to life...
The J Spot is a spin-off of
Intimate Moments. I had some more stories in my head and wanted to
get it out. I had more characters to write about.
BK: Do you let your
characters tell the story, or do you often fight with them on the
direction it will take?
My characters take on a mind of
their own. I have a direction as to which way I want my characters
to be portrayed but a twist occurs and my characters decide to take
the reins and do things on their own. I just go with the flow.
BK: How do you keep your
writing different from all the others that write in this particular
genre?
I try my best to tell a good story
when writing erotic romance. That’s not to say that others don’t
tell a good story but, I try to tell a beginning to end story with
giving some backstory about each character. This lets the reader
see how the character came to be.
BK: Which character was
your favorite to write for in this story? Why?
In Intimate Moments, Marcus
Anderson was my favorite to write. He is the underdog. He is
gentle, sweet, caring, and seemed lost and confused. In The J Spot,
Rhonda was my favorite to write. She is a woman that the word no
means nothing to her. Her character will resurface in my third
book, Check-Mate.
BK: Tell us about one
scene you had the most fun writing…
The train scene in Intimate
Moments was a lot of fun to write. I had to really use my
imagination, relax my mind and let my thoughts go. That scene could
be termed a voyeur scene due to the location of the characters.
BK: If you were stranded
on an island, which character in your books would you most want
to be
stranded with and why, and what is one thing that would be a
must-have?
I enjoy the friendship of the
ladies in Intimate Moments. They have a sisters bond. Being
stranded with them would be fun and bring along the sisters in The J
Spot would be extra fun. All five of those ladies would turn being
stranded into one big party. Especially, Gisselle and Mina…two
wild ones. We would have to have music and a lot of snacks and have
some men somewhere in eye range.
BK: Now for a little
fun, tell us a bit about what your office looks like. Do you need
silence
to write?
I don’t need silence to write
in. I usually have music playing in the background on top of the
dogs barking. I can also write with the television on. The office
has a desk with a desktop computer on it; a file cabinet to the left
of it with the printer sitting on top. A bookcase filled with books
is also to the left of the desk before the file cabinet. As you
walk into the door of the office, the television sits on another
cabinet. To the right of the desk is a chair. There is nothing
blocking the picture window, and there are two blankets on the floor
with two pillows and a fluffy chair for the dogs. I don’t use the
PC often, I either writer from my laptop which sits on a cute
computer table I purchased on Amazon in my bedroom sitting on the
floor, but mostly I write from my iPad while sitting on the backyard
patio.
BK: What do you like to
do when you're not writing?
When I’m not writing, I like to
read, listen to music, cook, play with the dogs, watch the Big Bang
Theory (those guys are hilarious), or watch a movie on Lifetime.
BK: What is one thing
your readers would be most surprised to learn about you?
I love to eat. Sweets are my
downfall. Some people look at me and wonder where all the food
goes. I guess I have a high metabolism, plus I enjoy walking.
BK: What is the craziest
thing you’ve ever wanted to write, or have written, even if it
never
reached public eyes?
I want to write a comical romance
story about things. I’ve already started writing it. I write on
it every now and then. I’m just letting the words come to me in
comical fashion.
BK: What is one piece of
advice you can give to aspiring writers/authors?
To all aspiring writers/authors,
everyone has a story inside of them just waiting to come out.
Whether it’s fiction or non-fiction. Let it out. Write it down
on paper. Let a professional editor read it, look it over, and
critique it. Friends and family can also read it, but will they
tell you the truth? Some will some won’t. An editor will most
definitely tell you truth. It may hurt at first but that’s par
for the course. Also, be patient, sales will not come overnight.
You have to put in the work to get the results you want.
BK: What can we expect
from you in the future?
My next book is Check-Mate which I
do hope to have out by the end of this summer. The book is overdue.
I’ve been nurturing it too long. There are also two other books
in the start phase that I want to get out by the end of this year.
Be on the lookout.
BK: Where can readers
connect with you?
Readers can connect with me on
Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, Foursquare, and LinkedIn under my name
Jeané Elliott Bennett.
BK: Using your name as an
acronym, please describe your book...
An acronym for my name, now that’s
interesting.
J = Juicy
S = Sexual
E= Exciting
A =Arousing
A=Alluring
S = Satisfying
N=Nasty
H = Hot
E=Enticing
I = Inviting
That was
interesting to come up with words to make my name. I had never
thought of that before.
Thank you for the interview. I really
enjoyed it.
Thank you for taking time to chat with us :)
This was a lot of fun, especially you welcome. And Zar,
your Zombie Butler is quite handsome.
Thank you. He appreciates you saying that.

Book Description:
The J Spot is not what you think
it is. It's not the type of nightclub that is coming to your mind
either. Once inside the club, you will see the maturity.
Kevin
in the type of man that every woman that he comes in contact with
want to take home, keep him and possess him. Does he let that happen?
Women
flocked to him like bees to honey. They fall to his feet at the sight
of him. As he handed them their drinks, they left their panties as a
tip. Although he was aggressive he was still shy and flattered by all
the attention he received from the ladies. He couldn't understand why
all the attention, he was just like any average male with a large
sexual appetite, and had his way of giving the ladies pleasure.
But,
there was only one lady that seemed to have caught his eye. He
couldn't seem to get her out of his mind. Her sexiness had him off
balance. He saw other women, he had even gone on a date or two but
his mind was gravitating towards one. Will she pay attention to him
or will she tell him to go to hell?
What
is it that he is feeling! Or is it he wanted what he felt he couldn't
have? Was he out of her league?

What
do you do when you have not one, but three handsome men vying for
your affection and attention? The answer is not so simple for Tonju.
She has to make a decision between two men from her past and one man
that has currently wanted into her life and wants to be her future.
The question is, "Which man will she choose?”
Trying
to find love was not easy, especially when you're a successful,
attractive lady in your thirties looking for a relationship of
sustenance, after being divorced for five years. Tonju was torn
between three men vying for her attention.
One
was an unhappily married man from her past who was willing to let go
of everything in order to be with her. The second man was her
ex-husband; he never stopping loving her and has realized his
mistakes and will do what has and needs to be done to get her back.
The third man was someone she met on a girl's a night out. So far he
has good qualities, but there's still an air of mystery about him.
Could
either of these men be the love Tonju's looking for? She has
reservations; some good and some not-so-good about the three men, she
had completely broken all ties with one, was leaning closely towards
another one, and was looking sideways at the other one. Could Tonju
truly be experiencing love?
