"Freedom in Friday Harbor" by Annee Jones - Author Interview

 

About the Book

Book: Freedom in Friday Harbor

Author: Annee Jones

Genre: Christian Contemporary Romance

Release Date: January 25, 2023

Will the 4th of July fireworks light the way to freedom from the past and perhaps the blossoming of new love for Summer and Ace in Friday Harbor? 

Seattle marketing specialist Summer Connelly welcomes the assignment to supervise the construction of a company float for the annual 4th of July parade in Friday Harbor, WA. Not only will it be a chance to prove her leadership skills to her boss, but an opportunity for a much-needed escape, especially since she hasn’t taken any time off since her divorce was finalized over a year ago.

Ace Lockhart works himself to the bone at his Portland contracting company, but something in his life feels off. When doctors tell him his elderly father has taken a turn for the worse, he heads to Friday Harbor to be with the old man, simply because no one else in the family will even speak to him.

As fate would have it, Summer’s plans for the parade look like they could go up in smoke before any fireworks are even set off. Can Ace be the ticket to light at the end of the tunnel? Will their days together lead to fireworks in more ways than one?

Author Interview 

1. Do you set a plot or prefer going wherever an idea takes you?
A bit of both – I always have a plot & start out with an outline. However,
during the course of writing my characters usually do things other than what
I’d planned, so I make adjustments.
2. What, according to you, is the hardest thing about writing?
Having enough time (I have a full-time job outside of writing)
3. What would you say is the easiest aspect of writing?
Coming up with ideas & characters!

4. Do you pen down revelations and ideas as you get them, right then
and there?
Yes, I always try to do this! In fact, I keep a notebook by my bed because
most of my ideas come to me while I’m supposed to be sleeping, lol.
5. Do you need to be in a specific place or room to write, or you can
just sit in the middle of a café full of people and write?
I have to be at home, alone in my office in order to focus!
6. When did it dawn upon you that you wanted to be a writer?
Probably before I was born. It’s something that God put on my heart for as
long as I can remember.
