An Interview with New Tell-Tale Author
Amanda Summerbell


 
1        Welcome to the Tell-Tale Family, Amanda! It’s so great to have you as a new member of our team. Can you start off by telling our readers a little about how you got into writing your chosen genre?

I grew up watching old movies, and especially loved anything about ghosts.  So as I began writing, my stories would always gravitate toward mysteries with a supernatural twist. 

2         What is your favorite character from a childhood story and why?

Nancy Drew, because she had the coolest job ever solving mysteries and a really cool car as well.  I have read and re-read all of her books, and now introduced them to my children as well.

3         Who is your favorite movie villain and why?

Rebecca De Winter, from the Hitchcock movie, Rebecca, with Laurence Olivier and Joan Fontaine.  She was my favorite because though she is not in the movie per se, she is all over it – the whole movie is about this woman who was known as a warm, inviting socialite, when in reality she was void of compassion and sociopathic.

4         You can have one super power. What is it and why, what will you do with it?

The power to clone myself so I can get more done in a day LOL.

5         They are making a movie of your upcoming book, FAMILY SINS. Who will star in each of the main character roles?

Kat Meninger:  Chloe Grace Moretz
Sam Meninger:  Sean Penn
Ed Stein: John Goodman as far as how I envision his look,
                 but Michael Imperioli could play him too
 Delilah Grand:  Betty White
Donovan (Charlie):  Paul Rudd


That sure sounds like a movie I'd enjoy watching. I'm sure our readers agree. Thanks for taking the time to share some of your background and fun ideas with us today, Amanda.
