Hey, it’s Mischa. Aadi and I caught up with the female lead of Honor At Stake by Declan Finn and asked her a few questions.

[Aadi] Who or what are you? What are your vitals? (age, sex, species)

[Amanda] Amanda Colt. Age is none of your business. No sex, please.

[Aadi] Okkayyy. What part do you play in the story?

[Amanda]  Female lead. Heavy hitter

[Aadi] How would you describe your book?

[Amanda]  A thriller.

[Aadi] Tell me about where you live? Who do you live with?

[Amanda]  I live in Manhattan, and I live alone. I have no one in my life now, except maybe for some new friends, like Marco.

[Aadi] What’s the most important thing in your life right now?

[Amanda]  Keeping my secret.

[Mischa] What do you hope nobody ever finds out about you?

[Amanda]  I have signed far too many NDAs to even discuss them. Thank you.

[Mischa]  Do you have any pets? Do you want any pets? What kind?

[Aadi] Do you have any magical items? Where did you get them?

[Amanda] A sense of wonder is the most magical thing I possess.

[Aadi] If you could change anything in your book, what would it be and why?

[Amanda] That I could tell him what I feel inside.

[Aadi] Awww

[Mischa] In the movie, who would play you?

[Amanda] Katie Cassidy

[Aadi] It was a pleasure chatting with you, Amanda. I’ve heard rumor that we’ll be reading about you in future novels. Can we chat again when they come out?

[Amanda] Not a problem.
