Interview with Camryn Daytona
Published 2019-10-11.
What are you working on next?
I'm currently finishing up The Last King of the Mountain, and then I'll be moving on to book two, The Lost Princess of the Sea.
When you're not writing, how do you spend your time?
I love reading, playing video games, and doing crafts.
How do you discover the ebooks you read?
Goodreads!
Do you remember the first story you ever wrote?
The first story I ever wrote was called "Majyk" and is actually set in the world of Illistra (same as The Last King of the Mountain)! I'm planning to go back and write it one day, and there are actually a few easter eggs for hidden in my books.
What is your writing process?
I don't have one.
Mostly I just cry at my keyboard.
Do you remember the first story you ever read, and the impact it had on you?
I vividly recall that I detested all books by Margaret Hillert when I was in elementary school. They inspired me to learn to read on my own because the books my teachers gave me were so bad.
What do you read for pleasure?
Mostly fantasy. I love, love, love kindle unlimited, and that's where I find most of my reading material.
What is your e-reading device of choice?
I read a lot on my phone! Usually though the kindle app.
What book marketing techniques have been most effective for you?
Instagram! You can find me @camryndaytonas
Describe your desk:
It's a bit of a hodgepodge of stuff. I call it my "wall of weirdness" where I just put things that inspire me. I've got a little bit of everything: books, antiques, crafts, dried leaves, art projects, dolls, etc.
When did you first start writing?
I've been writing for almost as long as I can remember!
I've been known to write fanfiction, but no, I will NOT tell you my usernames!
