#FridayFandom: Author Interview with Melissa Giorgio

1. Tell us about your books in 140 characters or less.

I have two series. Both are YA, but they’re very different from one another!

In The Fading Dusk, Irina, a street magician's assistant, must prove that her master hasn't been using actual, forbidden magic to commit murders.

The Silver Moon Saga is about Gabi, a normal sixteen-year-old who suddenly discovers demons are real, and she’s one of the few who can See them.

2. What would be the theme song for your books?

For The Fading Dusk, anything from the 2009 Sherlock Holmes movie.

For the Silver Moon Saga books it’s “Happily Ever After” by He Is We.

3. What is your favorite book movie and why?

Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban. It’s my favorite book in the series and I was beyond excited to see it on the big screen. I loved it so much I ended up seeing it four times in the theater (I’m not much of a moviegoer, so this is a big deal for me!).

4. What are you currently writing?

I’m in between projects. I just finished writing and editing a novella for the Smoke and Mirrors series (it’s set between books two and three and features an entirely different city and a whole new set of characters that will cross over into book three) and I’m about to start the first draft of book three. Even though it’s long process, I love drafting, so I’m looking forward to it!

5. What are you currently reading?

Paperweight by Meg Haston.
