AUTHOR INTERVIEW Tiffany Toto +COUPON CODE

Today, we have a special guest that stopped by to answer some amazing questions for us and is giving us a little peek inside her world!!! Everyone Welcome Tiffany Toto!!!

My name is Tiffany Toto, author of the Pandora Romance Novels and would love to have you join me on my adventures in creating the ultimate Romance Novel experience.

Pandora Romance Novels are built around four main characters Samantha, James, Roger and Tyler. Each character has their own unique and fascinating personalities, and who play an important role in each of my books. You will always see all my main characters in every book along with new characters I create.

Me: Tiffany, thank you 

for taking the time to sit 

down with me and answer 

a few questions..

Tiffany: You tied me 

to a chair… :-P

Me: Well….you never sits 

still and you’re A.D.D…? 

I had to figure out something! 

lol

Tiffany: Okay, 

I’m totally serious now…

Me: Lol.. dork :-P

Tiffany: You love me

Me: You know it!! So, 

why don’t you tell us a 

few “Secrets” about 

yourself Tiff…

Tiffany: Do you want regular

 run of the mill secrets, 

or naughty ones Bridgette?

Me: How about one 

naughty, one silly, 

and one serious… 

and whatever else you 

feel like throwing in there…

Tiffany:  Sounds Fair… 

Okay,

My naughty one 

would be that I really 

thrive on having a stimulating 

and intellectual conversation 

with my significant other 

before I write a powerful 

and lusty scene. I am not sure 

how he does it but he 

ignites a fire that sends me 

into literary ecstasy and I 

just need to....write...and I do.

Me: Very nice… 

must be SOME guy!!

Tiffany: He certainly is.

**Swoon**

 

My silly one would be is that 

I have mini rituals because 

of my OCD...for instance...

If I have the urge to write 

I carry several notebooks 

and several pens everywhere I 

go...I have to mix and match 

the colors of my notebook 

and pen depending on my 

mood. Yesterday, I was in 

the middle of doing something 

and I stopped and pulled 

out my little hot pink 

notepad that says 

"Princess" on the cover 

along with my favorite 

green ink pen and I jotted down 

some notes for Pandora's Soldiers....

My favorite colors are green, 

hot pink and black so I have 

notebooks and pens for each

 color...it keeps me 

happy as strange as it sounds.

Me:  I can’t imagine 

the size of your purse lol… 

but hey, whatever helps you 

remember your epiphanies is 

awesome in my book!!

Tiffany: They are not huge 

notebooks, just travel size 

and I carry them in my pink 

Victoria Secret shoulder tote...

My serious secret...Yeah, 

I am going to have 

to plead the 5th on this one...

Me: Ohh no you don’t

 missy…. Spill :-P

Tiffany: Spill what? 

I have Noooooooo idea 

what you're talking about.

Next…  

Me: you get a free pass... 

this time but only because 

I want to know more stuff... 

but we will come back to this one..

Tiffany: Hahaa!! Okay!

Me:  Getting to know your 

characters was amazing! 

Are any of them based on 

anyone real life?

Tiffany: I do write most of my 

character experiences based 

on past experiences of either 

myself or people that I have 

known, exaggerated of course.

The character images 

on my facebook page are people

 chosen that have some

 influence in my life as well...

Samantha my main heroine, 

she is my beautiful niece!

Me: Alright… 

now to the nitty gritty… 

You said it took you 11 years 

to write The Pandora Affair… 

How come it took so 

long to get there? 

Writers block extreme?

Tiffany: I am guessing my A.D.D 

had something to do with......

OH look at the kitty......

where were we? 

It also went on hiatus 

during my divorce. 

So once it was done, 

I needed feedback to see 

if it was worth publishing....

so I had a small group of guinea pigs

 read it and every single person 

loved it and told me 

I HAD to get it published!!

Me: So, since it took 

eleven years to write the 

first one... are we going to 

have to wait another 11 years to 

find out what is happening in book two?

Tiffany: No, 

The Pandora Affair started out 

as bucket list item, 

after I let my sister in law 

Babette and my cousin Jessi 

read it before it was published 

I was given a MUCH stricter deadline 

to get the next book, 

Pandora's Soldiers in their hands 

in less than 12 months...

greedy bitches! 

That was more time than

 my friend James Gouine gave me,

 after he finished 

The Pandora Affair 

he told me he would need 

Pandora’s Soldiers finished 

and in his hands no later than

 the following week…LOL

Me: Sounds like you have

 a wonderful support system there…

Now, Do you have any favorite authors?

Tiffany: Ok, favorite Authors...

my all-time favorite is Stephen King, 

I have read his books since I can remember...

I also like John Grisham, 

Edgar Allan Poe, J. K. Rowling 

and yes...Stephanie Meyer...

don't judge me! 

LOL...I love my Twilight!!

Me: EEEKK!! I <3's Twilight...

 Team Edward or Team Jacob?

Tiffany: Team Both.. :-P

Me: I am so 

How can you be both?? lol

Tiffany:  Hahahaaa 

ok so let me tell 

you the story 

behind Team Both..

Me:  Yes Please Do!!

Tiffany: I LOVE Vampires, 

love them...from Buffy, Angel, 

Spike and Twilight...

one of my best guy friends Jesse

 is not only awesome but he loves

 wolves...so there is a running

 joke with us that I am Bella and

 he is Jacob...and whenever I 

needed him for comfort when I 

was mad at my Vampire (LOL), 

he was there... 

Me:  lol now that's cute… 

So, I am going to list a couple things

 and we are going to play this or that.

.. and you are going to pick one ready??

Tiffany: Sure!

Me:  Good because after

 a few of these.... 

I have a couple juicy questions

 to ask before I let you go!

Tiffany: Oh Lordy! LOL

Me:  Chocolate:

Dark, White, or Milk?

Tiffany: Milk..

Me:  Movie night:

Scary movie and cuddling 

with your lover, or chick 

flick with the gals!

Tiffany: Scary movie

 cuddling with lover...

Me:  I can’t do ANYTHING 

without music going… SO….

When you're writing: 

Quiet and focused, 

OR music/tv going?

Tiffany: I can do either, 

depends on my mood.

Me:  does the music 

affect your writing?

Tiffany: honestly if I

 do listen to music when I write

 it will always be classical.

Me:  Alright... Now I 

got to read a little into 

Pandora's Soldiers and 

I got a taste of one of your 

HAWT sex scenes... 

Now, in The Pandora Affair, 

they were good, but in this one, 

the people involved seem to have 

QUITE a bit more dominance 

and the sex does in a little bit of a 

different direction 

(In a good way of course) 

What changed or made you decide

 to make it so different..?

Tiffany: Well....

Mmmmm about that question ...

When I wrote The Pandora Affair 

I was married to a semi smarter 

version of Rainman.....

I am currently dating Ironman...LOL  

Me:  well well.... 

now that my mouth is watering...

Which character in the 

books is your Ironman and 

why do you call

him Ironman?

Tiffany: Well, unfortunately 

he was not around for the

 creation of The Pandora Affair,

 but he is a significant part

 of all of my characters in 

Pandora’s Soldiers. 

Every time I get stuck 

and need help we discuss what a 

scene is going to be like and we 

go over scenarios to see which 

one works best for 

that character. 

Let’s just say 

his inspiration 

is unrelenting.

The reason I call him 

Ironman is because it is 

damn near impossible to win a

 debate on certain subjects 

with him and god knows 

I’ve tried. His sarcasm and 

intelligence on certain subjects 

outweighs my own and 

he is not big on being in the 

limelight, so that is why I use 

Ironman instead of his name.

Me:  Ooh what a stud! 

 He's a sexy character. *fans self* 

 I like James... but then again,

 I am a horse of a different color lol!!

Tiffany: I love James too, 

and Roger...

all my characters...

I am being very biased!!

Me:  hehe Alright, now I have

 interviewed a couple 

authors and some say that they 

decide the story... and some say

 that it's more like, the characters

 write out their story inside their 

head and the author is just the one

 to put their story on the paper..

Which one are you?

Tiffany: I am the puppeteer

 and control the characters...

based on audience reaction to 

the characters themselves, 

I write from there...

I am truly about the twist 

and turns of the shock factor...

does that make sense?

Me:  sURE DOES!!

Apparently my Caps 

Lock loves you! Lol

Tiffany: Haaa I make 

everything hard and big

Me:  

Tiffany: That came out wrong…

Me:  That’s what she said.. 

Me:  Okay, Okay, 

I will go back to being good.. 

hehe

Tiffany: *pokes Bridgette*

Me:  So, I have to ask... 

I have one author friend 

DL Roan who is an advocate 

for human trafficking.. 

and trust me, you'd be 

SHOCKED to find out how 

much of it is going on here 

under our own noses!!

Is there anything that you 

feel strongly about or want 

to tell my readers about?

Tiffany: I am a HUGE 

advocate against Animal Abuse 

and Canine Cancer, 

I just recently lost my best friend, 

companion and therapy dog 

to bladder cancer 

and it turned my world upside down...

now a portion of the proceeds 

from my books will go to 

the National Canine Cancer Foundation.

  

Me:  that is so sweet!! 

I am sorry for your loss, 

but maybe this will give 

you a chance to make some 

new canine kiddos..?

Tiffany: We got a puppy 

on Halloween right before 

Buddy was diagnosed, 

but yes I always adopt.

Me:  You've been so 

wonderful and I hope 

I am not taking too much 

time away from your writing.., 

but I HAVE to ask...

If you could pick any movie stars, 

(current or past) to play 

these characters, 

who would you pick?

James:

Samantha:

Roger:

Tyler:

(Remember...I want an all star cast!! *winks*)

Tiffany: 

Me:  Okay, Okay, 

I know I said that was 

the last one,…. 

But I can’t help myself!! 

I have one more!! 

Hehe I PROMISE 

I will stop after this one! :-D

Tiffany:  Alright :-D Shoot..

Me:  There are quite a few 

main characters that I met 

in that teaser you sent me 

from Pandora’s Soldiers… 

How about showing me a 

couple Top Notch Movie Stars 

to play a couple people from 

Pandora’s Soldiers!! 

Give my fans a little taste 

of the men in book two!! :-D

Tiffany: 

Me:  My Oh My!!! 

I can’t wait to be able 

to read more bout these 

smexi men in Book two!!  

Thank you for spending 

time with me and letting 

me pick your brain! :)

Tiffany: Anytime hun!
