Interviewd by Business Support by Mittie
February 26th 2010
Q: So first of all T. Nicole, I would like to say thank you for doing this interview with your scheduling being as hectic as it is with the release of the new book, "My Own Terms II: Never Settle. Tell us about the book, and what inspired you to write the sequel to "My Own Terms" so quickly?
A: My Own Terms 2: Never Settle picks up where My Own Terms let off. This book duo follows the life of a woman that is fed up with dealing with the controlling antics of her husband. After numerous events, she decides it's time for a change. Inspiration for these two books came from several life experiences of myself, friends, and family.
Q: The main character Shana seems so real! Is she a combination of women you know? Or is she based on one person in particular that you know or have met?
A: Shana is definitely a combination of myself and several of my friends. She is no doubt a handful....
Q: Tell us about the main character, Shana. Has her character grown and evolved or does she have the same attitude as she did in "My Own Terms"?
A: Shana does show growth in the sequel to My Own Terms. She learns to deal with situations differently, which in turn give her different results.
Q: Did anyone you know personally, inspire you to write?
A: I can't necessarily say that one person inspired me, rather a few people inspired me to follow my dreams.
Q: Do you feel as if the sequel to My Own Term helped you grow as a writer? If so, in what ways?
A: It definitely has and those who got to read a little of it have told me the same. It gave me more displicine and my characters were more developed.
Q: So the book was released today, are you getting the response that you expected?
A: I am so happy that I am getting the response that I hoped for. People are getting their copies and I am just so happy.
Q: So what's in the future for T. Nicole, what cities would you like to visit this time around that you didn't hit when the first book was released?
A: I will want to get up to New England, down South, and out West. I have to put some frequent flyer miles to work.
Q: Now that you have "My Own Terms" and My Own Terms II: Never Settle" officially released, what's next? Do you have any more project in the works?
A: I have one more title coming out this year which I am especially excited about. In addition to that, I am working on a non-fiction title.
Q: Is there anything you want your fans to know about you?
A: I want my fans to know that I do what I do for them.
Q: Where can both books be purchased?
A: Both books can be found on my website www.tnicoleonline.com as well as on Amazon.com.
