My Book Reality interview… and a reading of Black and Blue

Back in August, I sat down for a Zoom interview with Ian Hooper, executive director of Leschenault Press and The Book Reality Experience.

That interview is now up on YouTube:

I’m a little awkward but hey, it’s my first recorded interview. Awkwardness is on brand for me anyway. πŸ˜„

You can also get a sneak peek – or should I say, sneak listen – of Chapter One of Black and Blue:

A reading from Black and Blue by Lee-Ann Khoh

If you’re wondering why I intro’d and outro’d this while standing at the door, it’s because hearing my own voice usually causes me to make a quick getaway. Just kidding… but seriously.

Be sure to check out the other author interviews on the Book Realities podcast… ’cause there are plenty of interesting writers who aren’t me! In fact, most of the interesting writers on the planet are not me. πŸ˜›

My interview with AllAuthor

If you’ve seen my sweet book mockups on social media, like this…

…then you can thank AllAuthor for those. πŸ™‚

Anyway, my recent interview with Mady Joshi at AllAuthor has now been published and you can check it out below:

Lee-Ann Khoh latest interview by AllAuthor Author of Black and Blue, Lee-Ann Khoh grew up in Perth, Western Australia. She used to spend entire weekends just reading books when she was growing up. She studied journalism before deciding to write her own stories. She has also written a story titled β€œAiden’s Flowers” in the collection, Flash Fiction Magazine – Issue 1. She is a sucker for beautiful bookish things. Read full interview…

Edited to add: Apparently the first thing I said in this interview is wrong. It’s one of those things you get taught when you grow up in Perth, much like “Black swans are only found in WA” which I’ve since discovered is untrue. πŸ˜„

Good thing I write fiction and not geography books!

The day after Halloween

We have locked in a release date for Black and Blue: November 1, 2021.

All Saints’ Day. The day after Halloween.

Neither of which has anything to do with why we landed on that date, but if you want to chow down some trick-or-treat candy while you read my book, I’m wholly supportive of that.

Speaking of supportive, I can’t speak highly enough of the support that VisAbility has given me over the past few years.

Check out the article about my upcoming book release on the VisAbility website — the results of a fun chat with a member of the marketing team, my publisher Ian, and me. Thanks for making me look and sound good. πŸ˜‰

Anyway, the book’s coming out November 1, I’ve committed to the date, and I’ve just told everyone so I can’t back out now…
