In a sixty-minute conversational exchange, host, Stanley B. Lemons, interviews authors and writers of diverse backgrounds and genres. Interview questions include: How did you get started as a writer? How do you choose a topic or individual to write about? What makes for a successful book, article, script, or song? How can students, young or seasoned students, develop their writing skills? Why is writing important? These questions, including questions from you, the audience, shape the style and flavor of the Chat with an Author Speaker Series. The Chat with an Author Speaker Series is hot (real hot). Join the conversation.

Bio
Trice Hickman is a self-proclaimed Southern girl and award-winning, bestselling author of 10 fiction books. Trice’s love of reading and the power that she recognized in the written word inspired her to become a writer. After receiving rejection letters from every agent and publisher that she submitted her work to, Trice was determined to bring her stories to life. She quit her day job, formed her own publishing company (Platinum Books) and published her first three novels to great success. Shortly thereafter, she landed a multi-book deal with Kensington (Dafina Books) where she is currently published. Trice is also the creator of Fabulous Southern Belle, a lifestyle blog that will relaunch in early 2023. When she’s not busy writing and reading, Trice enjoys cooking, traveling, decorating, DIYing, and spending time with her family.
