Interview With Author Olivia Singleton
Tell us about yourself and how many books you have written.
I have written a number of books, more for my own cathartic reasons than anything else. I am extremely private and while helping some friends with some of their own life situations decided to publish some of the things I have written that have helped me in life.
What is the name of your latest book and what inspired it?
Journey’s Journey to Besting the Bullies
I was bullied in middle school until I found my voice and did something to stop it. As I was speaking with a friend with a middle schooler, it brought back memories of what I had been through. I decided to write about Journey’s Journey to encourage others on their journey.
Do you have any unusual writing habits?
My mind clicks into action at 10PM. I am good to write until 2AM, at which time I usually fall asleep the keyboard. I wake up and I am astonished at what I have typed while I was half asleep.
What authors, or books have influenced you?
Judy Blume, Lewis Grizzard and Carolyn Keen
What are you working on now?
I am currently working on something about my weight loss journey.
What is your best method or website when it comes to promoting your books?
I am still pretty new at the publishing things. So far I just have lots of unpublished works. I am hoping Awesome Gang will be an awesome gang for me. I have like everything I have seen about it so far.
Do you have any advice for new authors?
Write what you feel.
What is the best advice you have ever heard?
Be yourself. Nobody is better at it than you.
What are you reading now?

What’s next for you as a writer?
