Lori Wilde Interview

Lori Wilde interview
New York Times and USA Today best selling author, Lori Wilde has sold seventy-eight works of fiction to four major New York Publishing houses. She holds a bachelor’s degree in nursing from Texas Christian University and a certificate in forensic nursing from Kaplan University. She is a member of the Internal Association of Forensic Nurses.

Her first NYT bestseller, the third book in her Twilight, Texas series, The First Love Cookie Club has been optioned for a television movie.

A popular writing instructor, Lori is a three time RITA finalist and has four times been nominated for Romantic Times Reviewer’s Choice Award. She’s won the Colorado Award of Excellence, the Wisconsin Write Touch Award, The Golden Quill, the Lories, and The More than Magic. Her books have been translated into 26 languages and excerpted in Cosmopolitan, Redbook, Complete Woman, and Quick and Simple magazines. She lives in Texas with her husband, Bill.

As an author of heart-warming, toe-curling romance, what misconceptions about the genre bother you the most?
That they are silly fluff books. You should see the letters I get from the wives of servicemen who tell me that my stories helped them hold on while their men were deployed. Or the busy moms who tell write to say my stories helped them unwind after a long hard day. Or the family members who read my books at the bedside of the dying loved ones and the stories helped get them through those dark times.

What’s the best line from a book, movie or TV show that you wish you wrote?
Oh gosh, there are so many wonderful books, movies and TV shows that I admire, I don’t know where to start. The one that just popped into my head was: “I love that you get cold when it’s 71 degrees out. I love that it takes you an hour and a half to order a sandwich. I love that you get a little crinkle above your nose when you’re looking at me like I’m nuts. I love that after I spend the day with you, I can still smell your perfume on my clothes. And I love that you are the last person I want to talk to before I go to sleep at night. And it’s not because I’m lonely, and it’s not because it’s New Year’s Eve. I came here tonight because when you realize you want to spend the rest of your life with somebody, you want the rest of your life to start as soon as possible.” —Harry Burns, When Harry Met Sally
Do you have a favorite among your novels that you’d like to see made into a movie? Who would play the leads?
The First Love Cookie Club has been optioned for a movie so I’ve thought about this one a bit. I’d cast Scott Eastwood as Travis and Emilia Clarke as Sarah.

If you could co-author a book with anyone you haven’t worked with before, who would it be and why? (feel free to time-travel on this one—it can be any author, living or dead)
Mark Twain. He’s so wise and witty.

If all the words dried up tomorrow and you could no longer write, what would you do for a living?
Teach yoga.

The zombie apocalypse has hit (as we all knew it would one day). Which TV or movie characters do you want as part of your crew? (no superheroes…that’s cheating)
Walter White, Jon Snow, Cullen Bohanan, all the crew from the Walking Dead, ‘cuz they know what they’re doing.
