Hi All
On my blog today I have a guest post by Rachel Amphlett herself as she talks about Book Hangover.
This post is about things that get you all discombobulated once they are over, like a meal you never want to end, films you could watch over and over again and songs you could listen to on repeat, all day, every day.
There are just 8 simple questions:
-
Who are you and what do you do?
-
What gives you an actual hangover?
-
What TV programme?
-
What film?
-
What song?
-
What food?
-
Which person/people?
-
And finally, … Which book?
It’s a fun piece which is aimed at getting to know you better away from the book world.

I’m Rachel Amphlett, and I’m a writer of espionage thrillers and crime fiction.

Red wine – specifically, anything of the Cabernet Savignon variety – it’s just too damn heavy for me. Even after one glass, I’ll be waking up at 2am gasping for a pint of water, so I avoid it at all costs!

I really miss Strike Back. I loved that series!
-
The original Raiders of the Lost Ark. The sequels never really delivered on the first film. I can watch that over and over again, and still see something different each time.

I’m loving some really heavy stuff at the moment – Adelitas Way is a current favourite band, with a couple of their songs becoming earworms over the past few months. Like A Storm is another heavy band – from New Zealand. Great stuff for those late nights when I’m trying to catch up with the business end of this writing malarkey!

Sushi. I love sushi, but can’t be arsed to make it. If I ever win the lottery, I’m employing a sushi chef.

My parents. I’m in Brisbane, and they’re in Dorset. We talk every week on the phone, but it’s hard living so far away from them. They have a wicked sense of humour and taught me inquisitiveness from an early age. Also, my Granddad. He’s 97 now and an absolute riot.

The next Harry Dresden book by Jim Butcher – love the series, but he takes so long to bring out each instalment!
