INTERVIEWING AUTHORS
Debra has many years of experience interviewing authors, and cover models, and even hosted an online radio show.
During the American Title II contest, before Debra’s first book came out, she had a website to promote her book and encourage readers to vote online for her. Debra started interviewing authors of fiction on her Make Believe Monday’s blog which ran every Monday from Jan. 9th, 2006 to Aug. 23rd, 2010.

INTERVIEWING COVER MODELS
Debra has interviewed cover models for Cover Model Corner since 2011 when she won a breakfast in bed with a cover model photo shoot. Her interviews began to be picked up by Affaire de Coeur magazine in 2014. Though her original website is no longer up, you can find some of her past interviews on her Cover Model Corner blog.
