Welcome to Mutt or
Meow Monday!
Mutt
or Meow Monday is where we interview the author’s animal friends instead of interviewing
the author. Let’s see what the animals have to say!
It’s great to have
you here today.
Please introduce yourself.
My full
name is Sheldon Sherlock Smaug Cooper Cat and I am a black and white Jellicle
Cat like the ones in the famed TS Eliot poem, The Jellicle Ball.
What’s your favorite book by Debra Glass and why?
I am
only seven months old, but when she was working on her current release,
Rakehell, I sat on her desk, obscuring her view from her computer screen in
order to sneak and read the historical romance, which is set in Victorian
England. I couldn’t wait to find out how she was going to turn a marriage of
convenience into a happily ever after for Adam and Primrose, but those love
scenes made me blush!
Do you ever interrupt Debra for
attention when she’s trying to write? Does she stop and give you attention, brush
you off, or bribe you with treats?
I most
certainly try to interrupt! I meow until she gives me treats. (It works every
time. She can’t resist my adorable face and I use it to my full advantage) I
stand in front of her computer screen so she’ll pet me – and of course, so I
can read the good parts of her
naughty historical romances.
Has Debra ever based one of her
characters on you? Which one?
I think
so, but I’m not sure… Her current work in progress, Lashwood, which is
contracted with Ellora’s Cave, has a hero with penetrating eyes and a sexy
baritone voice whose name is Benedict. Since my middle name is Sherlock, I can
only assume I served as her inspiration.
What does Debra do to celebrate when
she finishes writing a book?
When she
finishes a book, she usually takes a nap and lets me sleep in her hair.
What else does Debra do instead of
writing?
My mom
just started iCandy Stock Photography, a romance novel cover stock site with
lots of images authors can buy and use on the covers of their books. Any
authors looking for fresh images for their books, websites, or promotional
material, should check out her site at http://icandystockphoto.com!
What’s the best part about living
with an author?
The
thing I love most about living with an author is that she is always home with
me. Although I have a sister, Lilly, and a brother, Severus, they are older cats
than I am and don’t give me as much attention as I deserve! Sometimes Severus even
hisses at me.
What’s the worst part about living
with an author?
She is
always home and I can’t eat her plants, claw the sofa, walk on the countertops,
or annoy the older cats while they try to nap.
Catnip,
toys or scratching post?
All
three combined in one! I have a scratch pad that my mommy puts catnip in. I
love to claw it better than the sofa and sometimes I take nap on it.
Head
rubs, belly rubs or butt scratches?
All of
the above. I follow my mom from room to room, meowing loudly until she stops to
pet me. My sister, Lilly, loves belly rubs because her belly fur never grew
back after she was spayed. Severus is the kinky one of the bunch. He likes to
be spanked.
Final thoughts: Send my mom a request to her
personal facebook page, because she’s always posting handsome pictures of me,
talking about her books, and sharing images of those shredded cover models she
photographs! There’s a link on her website.

Back cover blurb:
Lady
Primrose Black has a dilemma. Her father-in-law’s dying wish is that she
reunite with her estranged husband and produce an heir. She hasn’t laid eyes on
Lord Black since their wedding night five years ago, when he left Scarborough
Hall in a rage.
Nevertheless,
she resolves to find him, knowing once she does she will have to use every
method at her disposal to entice the rake she never stopped loving.
Viscount Adam Black harbors dark needs and he will accept no less than his wife’s complete and utter surrender. Each sensual encounter leaves Primrose wanting more but as she submits to her husband’s every decadent desire, she resolves not to lose him again. For the secret that drove Adam away still haunts him. And this time it could prove fatal for them both.
Author Bio:
Growing
up in the south where the air is thick with stories steeped in legend and
truth, Debra came by her love of romance novels honestly. Well...sort of. At an
early age, she pilfered from her grandmother's extensive library and has been a
fan of the genre since.
A full time freelance writer, Debra especially enjoys combining history, mystery and a touch of taboo to weave stories with unforgettable, haunted heroes.
She lives in Alabama with her sexy real life hero, a couple of smart-aleck ghosts and a glaring of diabolical black cats.
