We&#8217;re <em>stoked<\/em> to announce a brand new book by Tyrolin Puxty, author of the infamous <em>Colt Harper, Esteemed Vampire Cat<\/em>&#8211;not to mention the <em>Broken Dolls<\/em> series&#8211;and one of our favorite people from the land down under! (And that&#8217;s saying something. We like <em>a lot<\/em> of Australians. Go figure.)<\/p>\n<p>Not only has the cover just been revealed <em>today<\/em>, but we were lucky enough to catch up with the author herself for a <strong>FLASH INTERVIEW<\/strong> about the new title, <em><strong>Realm FM<\/strong><\/em>, arriving December 5. It&#8217;s about a radio station built on top of a wormhole &#8230; and the young woman who gets to interview Bigfoot &#8230; and the guy she&#8217;s trying not to be attracted to.

You already know we LOVE your books&#8211;they&#8217;re so quirky and fun! You write about some WEIRD scenarios, and we love it!<\/p>\n<blockquote><p><em>Thank YOU! I&#8217;m such a fan of you guys!<\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Awwwww, you&#8217;re too sweet! Speaking of sweet, we thought we&#8217;d take the opportunity to tap into that brilliant mind of yours and convert some of that weirdness sap into blog syrup. (Did that sound creepy? Yeah &#8230; probably. But the author of the <em>Broken Dolls<\/em> series isn&#8217;t going to mind a little bit of creepy, right? Of course not!)<\/p>\n<p>Question number one! What&#8217;s the weirdest thing that happened while you were writing Realm FM?<\/p>\n<blockquote><p><em>I wrote it a year ago in about six weeks over the Christmas break, so sadly the weirdest thing during that time would&#8217;ve been my uncanny stamina in regards to polishing off the turkey and chocolate.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>I mean, ah, Santa Claus kidnapped me and made me his bride, but I escaped via brutal candy cane stabbings. Pretty weird.<\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Yeah, we&#8217;re going with the brutal candy cane stabbings. Seems legit. (Btw, we Googled &#8220;candy cane stabbings&#8221; for art to add here and immediately thought better of it. Try it at your own risk.)<\/p>\n<p>Question number two! What was the weirdest source of inspiration for all the strange radio interviews in <em>Realm FM<\/em>?<\/p>\n<blockquote><p><em>Because my brain is constantly running wild with ideas, Realm FM was a good medium to throw a dozen ideas into one. I remember listening to Coast to Coast, and a guest was talking about the existence of leprechauns. She was legitimate, and I began to toy with the concept of a radio station like this existing; only the guests emerge from different dimensions. Seriously, I wish this station were real, which is why the main character 100% speaks like me, looks like me and thinks like me! Living vicariously through my character!<\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<figure id=\"attachment_414\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-414\" style=\"width: 323px\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-414 size-full\" src=\"http:\/\/dragonauthors.com\/bookwyrms\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/11\/cute-cat-on-keyboard.jpg\" alt=\"Kittin sitting on laptio keyboard.\" width=\"323\" height=\"400\" srcset=\"https:\/\/dragonauthors.com\/bookwyrms\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/11\/cute-cat-on-keyboard.jpg 323w, https:\/\/dragonauthors.com\/bookwyrms\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/11\/cute-cat-on-keyboard-121x150.jpg 121w, https:\/\/dragonauthors.com\/bookwyrms\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/11\/cute-cat-on-keyboard-242x300.jpg 242w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 323px) 100vw, 323px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-414\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Photo from <a href=\"https:\/\/newbloggycat.com\/tag\/cats-typing\/\">https:\/\/newbloggycat.com\/tag\/cats-typing\/<\/a><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Love it! We can&#8217;t wait to see what you ask them! Okay, last question&#8211;what&#8217;s the weirdest experience you&#8217;ve ever had as a writer?<\/p>\n<blockquote><p><em>My cat jumped up on my keyboard while writing and spelled out &#8220;grrrrrr&#8221;. I&#8217;ve never be<\/em><em>en so impressed.<\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Hahahahahahahaha!<\/p>\n<blockquote><p><em>Also, the week after Broken Dolls was released (which is about transferring consciousness into a doll), a news article was released stating scientists think they&#8217;ve found a way to transfer consciousness. Maybe not into a doll, but instead another person, or a computer &#8230; or a fridge.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>Bow down to Tyrolin Puxty, the almighty prophet!<\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Awesome!
