Right hun, I gotta say that I loved the
book and I must say it’s the best yet from you! I am jumping ahead of myself
but I’m certain there’s gunna be more from Lily Josh and Leon Lol
Georgina:
Aw thanks! :D
Was it easy to write Another Life, did it
flow for you?
Georgina:
Yes mostly, the
hardest bit was deciding on names!
Lol. And Lily’s adoptive mother – She was
some sort of Solicitor I take it.
Georgina:
Yes, I had her a
lawyer always working a case

See I thought it was but Police also do the same thing, also MD
doctors so I thought I’d clarify it Lol
Georgina:
That’s fine :)
She rather annoyed me to the point of
tears something’s. I was so frustrated with her and her lack of motherhood I
wanted to slap her ha-ha
Georgina:
Hahaha good! You were
supposed to feel that :)
I wanted to jump straight to the Bullying because Bullying is very
real and such a serious thing, more nowadays than it used to be. Were you ever
bullied at school - college - work?
Georgina:
It is indeed and
there are so many forms of bullying. Yes, I was at school.
It has become more prominent now on the internet, cyber bullying. I
see many of the posts from victims, some videos. It’s horrid. Is there any advice you have for those who
are sufferers?
Georgina:
I agree me too. Tell someone who listens, always always always
talk to someone - if you have no one at home then call a help line, there is
always someone there for you.

For information
outside the UK Google is here to help!
Is there a hidden,
or visible meaning or understanding you wished your readers to go away with
after reading Another Life?
Georgina:
Life can always
change and mostly you can change your own life by just making a choice.
So how does Leon come about his Aunt Sally in the real world? How does that relationship work since he’s
not from here but Willow Brook Hallow?
Georgina:
Ha! She was outcast
for loving a human however not all her memories were wiped, because like Leon
she had a mind power and she blocked a few parts for her memory to remember
(her family).
Leon is cruel mind; he did my head in a bit. Starts off all the
perfect gentleman and friend and then goes all nuts like. He seems a very
conflicted confused character as well, not just Lily. What are his issues?

Georgina:
Power - his family
have been powerful but they were always below the King & Queen and he hated
it! Then he & Lily became friends and the
parents set them up to marry and that were taken from him all because of Josh
and that twisted him.
I was a bit bummed out that nothing happened to Tom and his
worthless friends. Will he ever get his just deserts?
Georgina:
No, he is one that
will get away with it - it's to try to show that if you don't speak up these
things go unpunished. And sometimes it's just too late
Bastards Lol
Georgina:
Lol

So explain how you
came up with the Willowers
Georgina:
The people or the
name?
Both!
Georgina:
The people - I’ve
always loved powers but didn't want to just make that the norm, so added in the
separate world. The name - they come & go via a Willow Tree so thought it
apt.
And the Time Wanderers?
Georgina:
I wanted another way
for her to gain information. And knew people got punished by the willowers so
thought I’d add a "layer" by creating these people.

So is Willow Brook
Hollow on another plane of existence or alternative universe or something
entirely different?
Georgina:
I suppose another
plane of existence - it has the same timings as the human world and same
features etc. it's just not actually part of that world.
I felt at the beginning of the story that Lily’s abandonment issues
steamed from her mother but then when you think about it, she’s not the only
one, her adoptive father abandons her, her birth parents had already abandoned
her, my god the girl had a terrible time.
Georgina:
Yes definitely the
real parents abandoning her was the reason I made her adoptive parents do the
same so she really feels isolated.
The Willowers have specific abilities, from what I can gather they
have Weather and Elemental control, Telepathy / Empathy, some have Telekinesis,
what other things can they do?
 |

Georgina:
I think that's it. So
weather control, fire, water, air control, mind control, mind conversations,
read thoughts, move things with their mind oh & Lily's mirror portal
creation power.
I’m one of the lucky ones to have read
this. For those who haven’t when should they expect to see this available?
Georgina:
Indeed, you are! It will be released as eBook only (for now) on
Friday 6th March
2015! :D
Hee hee :D
And have you made a trailer for it yet?
Georgina:
No - I am rather
stumped I'm afraid for pictures!
Lol it is difficult in it. It’s gotta be
the worst part about it Lol
Georgina:
Yep - it is a shame
but I just don't have the images for it - next book I might do a photo-shoot to
gain more pictures etc.
So, is there anything I haven’t asked that you’d like to share with
us?
Georgina:
Gosh - erm... Only
that I am working on more books so stay tuned as there will be more from me :)
Excellent! Well then that’s it hun! We’re
done!
Georgina:
Whoop! Thanks, hun -
it was a lot of fun - I can't wait to get into character and answer those other
questions! Also
thanks for the review - dare I ask what rating out of 5 would you give it?
5 Stars from me! :D
Georgina:
Awww thanks hun! :D
No probs at all, glad I got to read it! :D
Thank you!
Georgina:
Any time hun.

Here are my
interviews held earlier with Leon, Josh & Lily.
My
Interview with Leon –
Hey Leon, for obvious reasons I have you
here alone today, I just wanted to ask you a few questions if that’s okay?
I’ll start…
Tell
us a bit about yourself Leon.
Well I’m tall dark and handsome of course.
My family one of the richest and most powerful. I love women and power, there
isn’t much else to say.
You
have a sister, yeah. Jess? Were you close?
Yeah Jess is cool. We haven’t really been
close though, she is all about kindness and befriending everyone whereas I am
more focused on gaining the power I want and she doesn’t always understand.
Your ex-girlfriend
Scarlet, how could you do this to her like? You love her right? I mean you love
her more than you would ever love Lily.
Yes, I love Scarlet, I thought we would
have a life together but then the arranged marriage came along and well no guy
who wants power would give that up! No love was worth sacrificing that chance!
Your little scuffle
with Josh resulting in you punching Lily, how did that make you feel?
During
the scuffle great because I was winning, after punching Lily not so good. I
felt bad as other than being stubborn she hadn’t done anything wrong and I
wanted to make amends but obviously I wasn’t allowed to do so.
Was it your only ambition to over-throw
the crown or did you actually hope and seek some sort of happy ending
eventually?
I always thought I’d
have a happy ending. Obviously I wanted the crown and the happy ending but we
can’t always get what we want so I punted for power instead.
How does Josh make
you feel?
Angry and frustrated. He has everything I
want and yet he doesn’t deserve any of it! Just thinking about him makes my
blood boil. If I could I’d have sorted him out ages ago.
What abilities do
you have all together?
Just mind control but I keep that on the
secret side. So when anyone asks, I just tell them I can read minds.
How powerful/ power
hungry did you feel when you ambushed the Brooke’s party at their home?
I felt amazing, it was such a rush to just
see their panicked faces knowing I did all of that, I arranged it all. I knew I
was so close to achieving my goal.
How could you kill
the King and think you were going to get away with it, were you actually going
to kill Lily, in your own mind, if you didn’t get your own way, or was the king
always the target?
Ha-ha I was always going to kill the king,
that was the only way I could get the Queen to do as I asked. Unfortunately, I hadn’t
anticipated the full extent of the Queens powers.
Would I have killed Lily? Probably not, I
wanted her in my end goal but even if that wasn’t possible I still had a soft
spot for her.
Did you always
envision yourself to being a feared leader rather than a loved?
I hoped I wouldn’t be but yes I always
knew that would be the only way to drastically change the way the people were
thinking.
Did it anger you to be
fizzled out?
Let’s just say
revenge is best served cold.

My Interview with Josh –
So what had you been
doing with yourself while you searched for Lily, Josh?
Mostly working on my power until it was
ready to contact Lily. Trying to find a way back home and when I gave up all
hope of that I got an education and a part time job.
How hard was it with all
Lily’s questions and you not being able to answer them, did you ever just want
to shout and scream the answers?
It was torture. All I ever wanted to do
when I got back in contact with her was help her and yet I couldn’t do that. I
had to be the one person obstructing her. More than once I wanted to shout and
scream the answers but I was afraid of what would happen. I’d lost her once I
didn’t want to risk doing that again.
Where did you go when you
weren’t at Uni or with Lily?
I sometimes went to watch Leon, try and
second guess him. Mostly I just went to the park by the Willow tree looking at
my home but not being able to enter.
Do you feel the same
abandonment issues as Lily being orphaned as a child? Do you know anything
about your real parents?
No as my parents died, they didn’t abandon
me so my situation was different to hers. Yes, I know their names, what they
did before they died and how they died.
How did you feel when you
learned that Lily was being bullied and tried to take her own life, did that
spur you to get to her sooner rather than later?
I felt helpless. I hadn’t located her by
that point and it pained me to see her hurting but not being able to help.
After she had told me she tried to commit suicide I panicked, I knew if she’d
tried once she’d try again and so I became even more weird to stop her from
wanting to remain in that world by taking her own life. Unfortunately, I added
to her sadness, but then she met Leon and I thought all was lost until she told
me about university and suddenly I knew how to find her.
How did you find Lily
after?
She told me which Uni she was going to and
so I got myself enrolled.
You tell Lily you’re from
Surrey, what did you do there, where did you live?
I lived in an abandoned flat, I practiced
my skills, enhanced my education and then got a part time job.
Josh I can only
imagine how you feel every time Leon slips his way back into view of Lily – did
you ever really believe that you and Lily would be happy one day or were you
just enjoying the moments you had with her?
Yes, I always believed we would be happy
one day but at the same time I was always worried something would come along to
ruin it for us as we haven’t exactly had much luck. So as a rule I made sure I
enjoyed the moments I had with her.
So, Mr and Mrs Barnes!
How does that feel?
Amazing, a dream come true.
And baby! Oh my, tell us
how that feels?
Like the most wonderful gift
ever

My Interview with Lily –
Lily, poor Lily. What a
shit start to life you had huh hun?
What are your thoughts on
life looking back?
We all have a past and although there are
great chunks I’d like to change it made me who I am today and I love who I am
today.
And your adoptive mother?
I am not really sure what to think of her.
I pity her I suppose, she adopted a child that she didn’t really want and
neglected it so I suppose I was the only one to lose out.
What about your adoptive
father?
I am confused about him, I still don’t
know what ever happened to him and it saddens me that he could leave us so
easily, could leave me but I was too young to understand at the time.
If you were given the
chance to give Tom one last thing before you headed back to Willow Brook, what
would it be?
I’d tell him who I am and what power I
have and show him that I am everything he’ll never be and then punch him and
walk away (hehe).
What did you actually
study at Uni?
Events Management
Do you think you could
have cut it being a normal human or are you happier being a Willower?
Yes, with Josh and Emily being a normal
human would have been a happy life. Without them no I wouldn’t have survived.
Being a Willower though is definitely the
best of the two options!
Have you seen any of
those Time wanderers or Freaky people in the mirrors since you came back to
Willow Brook Hollow?
The freaky mirror people were my doings as
my portal power came through so yes I’ve seen more of them as I practiced and
perfected the power. Time Wanderers, yes they are always around but I tend to
just leave them be now, I’ve no need to bother them.
If you could make a
porthole anywhere and travel, there where would you go?
Somewhere hot, relaxing and quiet, so I
could use it as my little retreat when things became too much.
Did you ever get to
confront Scarlet after?
No but in all honesty I didn’t need or want to. My problem wasn’t
with her, she was just caught up in the whole tragic affair all because she
loves Leon.
What laws of Willow Brook
would you like to change?
I would like to change the human and Willower relationship law. I
don’t want to eradicate it but I think times are changing and we need to be
more flexible.
