Today I have the pleasure of featuring a very special lady on my blog. Kim Mutch Emerson! Not only a wonderful author and publisher, CEO of Master Koda Publishing, but a sincere and giving friend!
She facilitates two facebook pages, a website for her company and who knows what else! Her nature is to help people and she's been helping to promote my work, taking me under her wing even though my books are under a different logo. Today I want to thank her and honor Kim!
And I have her book on my TBR pile as well especially since I'm diving into dystopia with my next series.
Please help me welcome this lovely lady!
Kim, what is the title of your book?
Oooh lala! I love
this question because the title of my book has a double meaning. Title: Digitus
233
Where did the idea for the book come from? The
dark corners of my mind. I love allowing my imagination to take what is and
expand it to what may be…
What genre does your book fall under? Dystopia
Science Fiction set in the near future. It can also fall under
action/adventure/fringe science/mature young adult/thriller. There, I think
that about covers it.
Will your book be self-published or represented by
an agency? My book will be published with
Master Koda Select Publishing
(MKSP) due out Dec 21, 2012 – just in time for the end of the world.
How long did it take you to write the first draft
of your manuscript? The very rough edges of the rough draft simmered
for several years on the back burner of my mind. The actual writing took place
over several months.
Give a one sentence synopsis of your novel:
When Zander was ushered onto the luxurious Lear Jet the end of the world
was the last thing on his mind.
What other works would you compare your story to?
It’s kind of a combo meal between The Hunger Games, Clive Cussler novels,
the classic Nineteen Eighty-Four by George Orwell and the movie The Manchurian
Candidate set to the tune of Hotel California.
Who or What inspired you to write this book?
The events in Nazi Germany during World War II, the reality that freedom (and
life) can so easily slip through our fingers, the intrigue of fringe science
and how it can be used for good or evil (depending on who is in control).
What else might pique the reader’s interest?
After much argument from the main characters of the book
it was finally decided to give a fleeting glance inside the upcoming novel Digitus
233 from author K.D. Emerson.
****
Deep within the dark abyss of his mind, Zander tried to shout, but no sound
escaped. It felt as though a heavy mallet beat against his skull. Pushing the
pain to the back of his mind, he forced himself to focus and slithered through
the murk toward a pinpoint of light. Gulping for air, he burst through the
blackness and forced his eyes open.
A scream escaped before he could stop himself. Inches
away, a face; a set of open blue eyes stared at him. Was it a dead body? He
struggled with his arms and legs, unexpectedly unable to force them to move. He
was tied up in some kind of silky material! The eyes in front of him blinked.
This time he caught the scream half way up and swallowed it. He had to get
control of himself.
