Jennifer Echols Revealed
Q. What is your motto or maxim?
A. Write the book you want to read.
Q. Who is your favorite fictional villain?
A. The Reavers on the canceled TV show Firefly are the most terrifying invention ever. That was a great show and I'm so sad it's gone!
Q. What’s your fantasy profession?
A. High school band director. This was my first career goal in college, but I am not a good teacher.
Q. If you could meet any historical character, who would it be and what would you say to him or her?
A. I would try to save the four girls killed in the Birmingham church bombing on September 15, 1963. I live in Birmingham and September 15 is my birthday, so they are never far from my mind.
Q. If you could be any person or thing, who or what would it be?
A. It would be cool to be Barack Obama right now. If I couldn't be him, I would love to be a fly on the wall in the Oval Office.
