Q+A with Cecy Robson
EJ: When did you begin writing?
Cecy: May 1, 2009.
EJ: What brought you to the paranormal genre?
Cecy: Patty Brigg’s CRY WOLF. I purchased it to read on a plane ride and instantly became hooked on Urban Fantasy.
EJ: If you could be any paranormal or have any one supernatural talent, what would it be? Why?
Cecy: I’d like the power to kill / eliminate muffin tops. Seriously, mine needs to die and women around the world would thank me.
EJ: Tell us why readers will enjoy your new release.
Cecy: CURSED BY DESTINY is filled with action, tension, gut-wrenching moments, and inappropriate and often snort-worthy humor. A page turner, it will grip you to the very end. Plus there are cute guys in it.
EJ: If your book(s) were being made into a movie, who would you cast for the leading roles? Why?
Cecy: Celia—Emmy Rossum. She has the ability to portray a wide range of emotions which is necessary for Celia’s character. Celia can be as tough as nails and as fragile as glass.
Taran—Emmanuelle Chriqui. This actress is stunning and solid enough to handle Taran’s fierceness.
Shayna—Jennifer Lawrence. Aside from Celia, Shayna is the most physical. I need an action star with tremendous theatrical range to play my perky sword wielder.
Emme—Ariana Grande. This actress has that innocence about her Emme shares. While doe-eyed like Emme, you can see the spark of her inner strength and hope which Emme represents for the sisters.
Aric—Milo Ventimiglia. This actor practically “growls” in the way he regards the camera. The intensity in his stare is also a necessity to portray this Alpha wolf.
Misha—Taylor Kitsch. I’m not sure if there’s another actor out there with a wicked twinkle in his eyes or grin more befitting Misha.
Cursed by Destiny (Weird Girls #3) by Cecy Robson.
Celia’s a girl in trouble. Her heart is bound to Aric, but he is a pureblood were who must deny her or risk condemning his species to extinction. And that’s just her love life. She’s also been called to take down a group of demon terrorists looking to overthrow the paranormal world. (No pressure.)
In order to bring them down, Celia must ally herself to Misha, the master vampire who has made no secret of his desire for her. And if that weren’t enough misfortune for one girl, a clairvoyant’s prediction could destroy Celia and Aric’s love for good. The only way to protect the world from unbridled supernatural terrorism is for Celia to bind herself to her destined mate. And that doesn’t appear to be Aric…

It's so funny that you picked Ariana Grande for Emme, Cecy, because that's exactly how I pictured her! lol
ReplyDeleteI KNOW, right? Ariana has a very "Emme-esque" quality about her--minus the voice she uses on Sam & Kat. I think she'd make a great Emme and come out swinging when the going got tough. Thank you for stopping by, Lane!
DeleteEmmy Rossum is a great choice for Celia!
ReplyDeleteEmmy is capable of playing anywhere from goofy and awkward (like Celia can be) to vulnerable (also Celia) to fierce (Celia again!). I can totally picture her. Thank you for stopping by, Kait!
DeleteTaylor for Misha is perfect!!!
ReplyDelete*swoon* Yes, I do like Taylor for Misha. He's got the perfect brows for him, too. ;). Thank you for stopping by, Reese!
DeleteI love the reasons why you chose the actors. That really brings it to life for me. Not that it wasn't before. Lovelovelove this series!
ReplyDeleteThank you so much, Amie--for the sweet comments and for stopping by. I hope that you continue to enjoy the Weird Girls Series! Cecy
DeleteAction-packed with snort-worthy humor is a given in this series! Love the Weird Girls!! :)
ReplyDeleteThank you so much, Kate--for stopping by, and for your kind praise! <3
Deletebefore reading this I thought that snorting why laughing was an involuntary respiratory function, but it's good to know that it is actually a baDge of approval. You learn something new everyday.
ReplyDeleteYou can laugh without snorting, Carl, but when something's really funny, oh then a snort is deeply warranted. Thank you for stopping by and for learning what I had to teach.
DeleteGreat picks for your cast! And if you find a way to kill muffin tops, let me know. :-)
ReplyDeleteThank you for stopping by, Pat. Yes, if were up to me, the muffin top would be no more! Mwahahahahahah!
DeleteI think you just want to be Queen of the Universe. Because if you had the power to eliminate muffin top, you would totally hold all the power.
ReplyDeleteHow can we trust that you would use it for good, and not evil?
Hmmm....
You can't. But how about I sweeten the deal by getting rid of jiggly arms, too? ;-) Thank you for stopping by, Teri Anne.
