SPOTLIGHT ON… Escape Publishing: SE Gilchrist

SE Gilchrist

Describe yourself in one word:
Curious

When did you first begin writing with a view of embarking on a career as a published author?
January 2009

What is your writing routine?
Since I have a full-time day job, I try to squeeze in a couple of hours Monday to Friday. The weekend is where I get the bulk of my writing done providing my other life doesn’t kidnap me.

Favourite snack whilst writing?
A fresh pot of REAL tea in genuine bone china cup.

If you weren’t writing, what would you be doing?
I love reading, bushwalking, kayaking and walking my dogs.

One thing you’d like readers to know about the romance genre:
Romance is more than just a love story.

The one book that you’ve read over and over is…
Can I say two please? The Hobbit and Pride & Prejudice

Favourite fictional character:
Amelia Peabody

Number one thing to do on your bucket list:
Pay off my mortgage!

Biggest accomplishment to date:
My first single title contract (thank you Escape Publishing) for my sci fi romance, Legend Beyond the Stars.

What’s next for you?
Another single title sci fi / space opera romance, an Aussie contemporary rural novella and an erotic, post-apocalyptic short story.

If you could offer just one piece of advice to aspiring authors, what would it be?
Learn and keep writing.
