Don’t Panic
By Lindsay Paige
About the book:
Samantha Branson is having severe anxiety attacks. Her heart beats unusually fast, her breath quickens and her hands sweat. Every detail screams in her head that she is the center of unwanted attention. Everyone can hear her thoughts, her heart and her breathing. The silence of the classroom is so loud that focus is impossible.
After an attack lands her in the wrong bathroom, Sam meets Eli who offers to provide help. Faced with the return of her possessive ex-boyfriend and the blossoming of a new romance, Sam must find the strength inside herself to face her anxieties head on.
Author Interview:
1. Where are you from? - I'm
from a small town in eastern North Carolina.
2. Did you always know you
wanted to be a writer or was there something else you wanted to do as a career?
- I never thought about being a writer. I've always been a reader, not a writer.
That was until Fall of 2010. I was experiencing some extreme anxiety and writing
became my escape.
3. What inspired you to write
your first book? -As I said, anxiety basically. You can read this post to
learn a bit more about my journey.
4. In you opinion what is the
best movie adaptation of a book that you’ve read? - Hm. That's tough! I would
have to say that A Walk to Remember is the best.
5. What is the first book
that you remember reading? -The first book I remember reading was Goodnight,
Moon and that was for some sort of test in Kindergarten.
6. If your book was being
made into a movie do you already have actors in mind for each role? What
bands/singers would you put on the soundtrack? -If Don't Panic was made
into a movie? I don't have any actors in mind, no. However, I do have pictures
on Pinterest of
who I see as Samantha and Eli. You can check out my
playlist on Youtube for the artists I would put on the
soundtrack.
7. When you’re creating
characters do you incorporate traits from people you know? -Yes, I do. Sometimes
there are traits from myself, and others from other people that I know.
8. If you had the chance to
have a sit down with any author alive or deceased who would it be and why? -This
is a tough question! The first person that comes to mind is the first author I
fell in love with and that is Nicholas Sparks. As I said, he's my first favorite
author and I love his works.
9.What book are you reading
now? -I'm about to finish up Fifty Shades Freed.
10. What are your current projects? -I'm working on book
four of the Bold as
Love series, a work titled Rejection, and a few minor
projects.Disclosure of Material Connection: No payment was received by me in exchange for this post.
