Five facts about your newest book that people won’t know. Some background history on one of your
characters maybe? Maybe it was going to be called something completely different to start out with? Is it the same genre it started out as?...

1. Started as pure Horror but has ended up as more paranormal thought there are horror elements.                                                                                                                                          
 
2. Sin (Main female character) is over 6000yrs old yet still looks as if she’s in her
early 20’s.                                                                                                                                          
 
3. I hated one character so much I rewrote the ending so I could kill him.                                                                                                                                             

4. At last count there are 10 horrible deaths, but this could increase.                  
                                                                                                                            
5. I still havent finished the book, currently working my way through edits.

Three tips that you think might be useful for other authors… anything you want. It could be, to
write a certain amount every day, only write after midnight and never get Gizmo wet (Sorry, that’s Gremlins not writers! My bad.) Maybe it’s some information that was given to you that has helped your process…
  

1. Write flash fiction as much as you can, it helps develop your writing skill set – show just how much can be conveyed in few words.                                                                                                                              
 
2.  Don’t be afraid to ask for help, there are lots of writers out there who are more than happy to offer advice, help or even just to make you feel good about yourself – you're never really alone.                                                                                                                
              
3. Never beat yourself up if you don’t meet self imposed targets and compare
your output to that of others  everyone is different as long as you write at your own pace your good to
go .                                                                                                      
                     

Kitchen Antics & Other Tales is a collection of 11 short flash fiction tales, exploring the mind of LE Jamez and it is a dark place indeed. Everything from cannibalism to demons are within these pages, each tale a quick five minute read over coffee if you dare.

One reviewer had this to say about it:

This debut collection of short stories opens with a fun and gory bang, with the 
titular tale 'Kitchen Antics' - having been in a few restaurant kitchens and 
knowing many chefs, it's a spatterfest that could just be true. 'Revenge' is a 
bug story that will leave you itching and squirming long after you've read it; but it is 'Barney' a noir-ish Pied Piper homage that stood out for me. With such  a variety of stories, it's clear that Jamez's imagination knows no bounds.
I'm  looking forward to reading what she comes up with next.

 So, what are you waiting for?

Go pick yourself up a copy if you didn't manage to win one over the last day or so.
