Armchair BEA Introduction Post

Hello all! Welcome to my dark corner of the book blogging world. I am Poison Rose (obviously). I'm honored to be participating in my first BEA event.

Please take a seat and enjoy your dose of Poison for the start of Armchair BEA!

Our first job is to introduce ourselves by answering five (or more) of the requested questions...so here we go!

• Please tell us a little bit about yourself:
  • Who are you
    IRL my name is Sara. I am a single mom and web designer.
  • How long have you been blogging?
    I've been blogging for close to a year, so my first bloggoversary is coming up in a couple weeks. I'll be having a giveaway and hopefully some other fun things going on. *smiles widely*
  • Why did you get into blogging?
    Blogging to me came after my favorite author, Laura Kaye got published. I have been a fan of hers for many years now. You can read about her beginnings here on My Interview with Laura Kaye. I loved her Fan Fic she has written and her writing style was on par with how I have always loved to see it done, but after she began writing Forever Freed and got published I was hooked and wanted to share my thoughts on her books and others with people all over. I'm thrilled to be doing that for so many wonderful authors!
• What is your favorite feature on your blog (i.e. author interviews, memes, something specific to your blog)
  I'd have to say the interviews with Authors, I am thrilled that they take valuable time from their schedules to answer questions that us bloggers ask, no matter how crazy they can sometimes be! LOL
• Which is your favorite post that you have written that you want everyone to read?
  Easy! Interview with CJ Ellisson, Vivian and Rafe.
• If you could eat dinner with any author or character, who would it be and why?
  Oh, great question! With Author it would have to be Jodi Redford. She is funny, witty, and writes a sex scene that can involve objects one would NOT think can be sexy! Have you seen her guest post about Home Depot?!?!? Read it Here.
  
  As far as characters I'd go with my first love, Lucien Demarco from Laura Kaye's Forever Freed He was my first true Romance love, and part of what got me into romance again. And got me into Paranormal Romance all around. He holds a special place on my "Book Boyfriends" list...LOL
• What is your favorite part about the book blogging community?
  Thanks easy all the fabulous bloggers I've met through twitter or Facebook and have kept in contact with through the year since I began my blog.
• Have your reading tastes changed since you started blogging? How?
  Not as much as one would think. I still try and stay with Romance mostly, but I do go into some of the darker toned books in the PNR genre and some horror as well. I have also delved more into erotica lately as I'm finding some great Authors who can write it how I like it.

And there you have a small dose of whats makes me tick in the book world. I'm delighted to be in the Armchair BEA and sharing my thoughts with you. Thanks for dropping in and I hope you come back soon!
