Q&A with KIT
DONNER
Q: What song do you put on when you’re driving in your car?
A: Love Story by Taylor Swift
Q: What is your favorite Classic TV Show?
A: Andy Griffith
Q: What is your favorite current TV Show?
A: Daily Show with Jon Stewart
Q: Tell us about your favorite pair of shoes?
A: Barefeet- I’m not crazy about shoes
Q: What is the worst job you ever had?
A: Census Caller- calling people who hadn’t completed their census forms -
that was a thankless job
Q: What is the best job you ever had?
A: Well, I could say writing of course but then again, I was a Service Operator
and had to talk to men all day about their service calls. More interesting than
you might think.
I write because….it’s there. JK. I write, therefore, I am. JK. Seriously,
I want to tell stories and make people happy. And that’s the dang truth.
THE
NOTORIOUS BRIDEGROOM: 1803 and Napoleon plans to invade England with the
help of French spies and traiterous Englishmen.
Bryce Andover, Earl of Londringham will do everything he can to stop them, if
only the pesky Miss Patience Mandeley would stop spying on him at every turn
to try and prove he is a traitor and not her brother. If they can trust each
other long enough, Bryce and Patience may just stop the French invasion and
fall in love.

Okay, you have to tell more about your service operator job, since it’s more interesting than we’d think.
Congrats on your release!

Welllll,
It was my first job out of college – temporary. The service techs would call in and I would read off the problem with the equipment and the address where the equipment was located. Before long, some of the guys would say, ‘you give good phone’ or ‘did you know you have a sexy voice?” yeah, a girl could get used to hearing that all day. And, no, it stayed strictly friendly and fun and never wandered anywhere near verboten topics.

LOL. Yes, I think you could definitely get used to that.
I’m having fun imagining a sultry, smokey voice saying, “Yes, it’s the upstairs toilet. Overflowing, with a terrible stench. Can you handle it, big boy?”

LOL – Thanks for a hearty chuckle. It was actually the early fax machines and big clunky word processors and memory typewriters. Those were the days.

Kit – ‘you give good phone’, great line if ever I heard one. Too bad you don’t write contemporaries… could be the opening line of your new book. Let’s see if we were to translate that into historical terms wouldn’t it go something like…’you certainly have a way with words’?

Kit,
Btw, love the job after collage. It’s nice to feel good! lol. Even if it’s just over the phone.
I listen to classical while I write and Taylor in my car.

Hi Kit,
Congrats on the upcoming release. My cousin worked for the Census Bureau for two weeks. She sat at a table on the sidewalk and would ask passersby if they filled out the Census questionnaire yet.

I’m a barefoot woman, too! And if I HAVE to wear shoes, they’re flip-flops.

Yep…I’m a definite member of the barefoot gang! I can wear flip-flops unless there’s snow on the ground. Thankfully southern Oklahoma doesn’t receive much snow. My first job was in my Dad’s insurance agency…filing and answering phones. Ugh.
