Part II Interview with Tracy Rozzlynn and International Giveaway


Fast-Tracked (Fast-Track Trilogy, #1)
Welcome back, everyone to the second part of this awesome interview! We've been talking with Tracy about her three ongoing trilogies, and she has generously offered up some heavy duty prizes for you guys! So show your appreciation and enter to win!

Goodreads book description: Study hard, do well on your assessment, and you’ll be rewarded.

The phrase had been repeated throughout Alexandria's life. A person’s ranking on the assessment test determined everything. Their job, where they lived, and even who they could marry. At least that’s what Alexandria though before she received the results.

Everything Alexandria believed was a lie. Fast-trackers run the country. Anger one of them and your whole world could fall apart. Anger one of them and the people you love would suffer.

Alexandria was elevated to fast-tracker status while her best-friend turned true love was plummeted to the lowest possible rank - a guaranteed life of hardship and misery. She plunges herself into the fast-tracker’s world in hopes of helping Byron. But can she help Byron before she completely loses herself to the allure of their lifestyle?

Fast-Trapped (Fast-Track Trilogy, #2) 
My rating: 4 out of 5 stars

Amazon review: Fast Tracked review 

Fast Trapped just came out as well and can be purchased on Amazon!

About our author: Hi everyone, I’m Tracy Rozzlynn. I was born and raised in Rhode Island. It’s unique little state – the city, the suburbs, the beach, and the woods are all within a thirty-minute drive, but mountains are an out-of-state drive. I graduated from URI, but until recently, I never actually used my English literature degree. After college, I worked in retail and then in telecommunications. For a while I lived in Massachusetts and then Maine, but I since returned to my home state. My daughter is the most important thing in my life. My writing and the rest of my family are a close second. 

Author Interview Part II
1) Have any of your characters surprised you, and if so, which one and how have they surprised you?  
Alexandria. She woke me up in the middle of the night after she befriended the last person I thought she ever would. The character she befriended didn’t even exist yet, but drastically changed how I though the trilogy would play out. 

2) If you could be a character in one of your trilogies, who would it be and why? 
Brett. Mostly because I want a pet meerkit, but I’d love to live on and explore Verita. 

 3) What has been the hardest thing about being an indie author and how did you overcome this difficulty?  
What has been the best thing about being an indie author? I think the best and worst thing about being an indie author is that you do everything on your own: editing, making a cover, creating a website, and marketing. There’s a lot to learn, but I’ve received a lot of advice and support from fellow indie authors. 

4) Tell us what you have coming up in the future.  
Next, I plan to complete book three and four in the Verita series. I want to release the two books at or near the same time, because so far, it looks like book three will end with a cliffhanger. 

Listen up! On Amazon, Tracy is offering e-copies of Fast-Tracked and Verita for free November 16th-20th. Then on November 23rd (Black Friday) all of her ebooks will be only 99 cents! 

Thanks to Tracy for this awesome interview and generous giveaway! And thanks also for not leaving your readers on the edge too long in Verita :-)
