Multiple Interview and giveaway with Pelican authors!!

Next up, we're checking in again with author Erin Unger to spotlight her new release "The Cabin." It's due out on June 14th!! Leave a comment after the interview for a chance to win a free copy! Here's a brief glimpse into the story:

Leah Kettridge’s writing career is over before the first book lands on the shelf, when a famous author has claimed she’s stolen his work. If it wasn’t for a story brainstorming luncheon with her sister, he’d have never overheard her conversation about the novel she was writing. Who will she ever trust again if not her most favorite writer? And what about the one fabulous date they had before she knew what a traitor he was?

Keenan Brinner has it all. He’s a best-selling author who’s only headed toward more greatness. And he must be the most gorgeous guy Leah’s ever seen. But he’s also a liar and a cheat.

When they end up at the same cabin to write, emotions explode. But an unexpected snowstorm traps them deep in the mountains. Is he bent on destroying her in more ways than one? How will love find them amidst all their anger and distrust?

 Sounds like an exciting read! Welcome again to the Mine, Erin! I've got a few questions for you. 

When did you decide you wanted to write a book, and how did you get to that decision?

I was 27 when I really felt God calling me to write. When I make decisions, I get to work. And that’s what I did with writing too. My first book, a YA that’ll stay hidden in a computer file forever, got me headed into the writing realm.

You've got me wondering if you'll ever decide to publish that first book! 

What is your favorite genre to write, and why?

I absolutely love to read and write suspense. Add romance to it and it makes the perfect blend. I think it’s the blood-pumping drive of excitement to get to the next page that makes me love it so much. And who doesn’t love a great love story too?

That's so true! Suspense and romance are a powerful combination. So, what do you want your readers to experience by reading your stories?

If my readers can’t put the book down long enough to get some sleep at night, then I’ve done my job. That’s my goal in every book I write.

I'm sure your stories meet that goal! 

What do you experience when writing your stories?

Writing is a difficult thing. It’s time consuming. It makes my brain hurt sometimes. And it challenges me to pray, pray, pray. But I think that’s why God chose it for me. He knew it would make me rely on Him more.

Your response makes me think of that famous Ernest Hemingway quote: "There is nothing to writing. All you do is sit down at a typewriter and bleed." I've always loved that quote!

So, what are you working on now?

I have had the best year with my writing! Two of my novels released at the beginning of the year and my third book, The Cabin, comes out June 14. I’m still in the middle of preparing for its release, which involves way more than I even imagined possible before I started getting published. And then there will be two more books to release by the end of autumn. Phew…

Wow!! You're having a big year. What a treat for readers! Thanks so much for the interview, Erin! Now readers, here is a short bio, plus Erin's links:

Erin Unger was raised in the hills of Virginia, exploring abandoned houses and reading the scariest books she could find. After marrying so young it would make a great romance novel, she has enjoyed an exciting life with her hubby. But her fast-paced life sometimes rivals the suspense in her books thanks to all her mostly grown children and a couple grandkids. Her next novel, Fateful Fall, releases August 9, 2019.
