Interview With Author Sevvrin E
Tell us about yourself and how many books you have written.
I’m a four time published author currently pursuing my Bachelor’s in Liberal arts with a minor in Criminal Justice. I love all things music, art, gender studies, and health. I’m also a recording artist and specialize in alt and indie music. I’m self-taught with 4 instruments, and have been songwriting before I even thought about being an author.
What is the name of your latest book and what inspired it?
My latest book is called Tall Scarves, and it was inspired by short story I wrote about mother and son with a bond later turned sour due to abuse.

Bang! by Sharon G. Flake
Jerk, Calfornia by Jonathan Friesen
Girl, Interrupted by Susanna Kaysen

What are you working on now?
I’m currently working on an album named “Juno: Wife of Jupiter”. I want to talk about relationships and feeling reborn within them.
What is your best method or website when it comes to promoting your books?
I like to network with those who create book reviews for their own individual websites and platforms.
Do you have any advice for new authors?
Write like you have nothing to lose and then you’ll realize you have so much more than you thought.
What is the best advice you have ever heard?
That I’ve taken care of everyone else for a lifetime and now I need to care for myself.
What are you reading now?
I’ve been reading The House on Mango Street by Sandra Cisneros
What’s next for you as a writer?
I would like to explore stories involving multiple, alternating perspectives.
