Adair chatted with us over e-mail for a Sit Down Saturday giving us a little glimpse of her quick wit and some really funny answers.
When did you first realize you wanted to be a writer?
When my bar tab became too expensive for a 9 to 5 lifestyle
How long does it take you to write a book?
Depends on the size of the book. A book in a series is typically shorter and I can usually pump one out in about a month. A novel is at least twice the size and it takes my somewhere between Why-did-I-decide-to-do-this-again? and My-eyes-wont-stop-bleeding.... Give or take.
What is your work schedule like when you're writing?
Chaotic. Sometimes I'll get up in the middle of the night and write...because my brain hates me and actively wants to see me suffer. I typically transfer that same hate onto my characters. That way I can relate to them!
Where do you get your information or ideas for your books?
Mostly while I'm driving irresponsibly.
Tell us a little about your background!
I've had at least 30 jobs/careers in the past 20 years.
What is the biggest lie you've ever told?
That I am an author and that I should be taken seriously.
Have you ever been in trouble with the police? If YES, for what?
Not that I can remember... I don't think I was caught doing anything vulgar
Characters often find themselves in situations they aren't sure they can get themselves out of. When was the last time you found yourself in a situation that was hard to get out of and what did you do?
The Department of Motor Vehicles. I don't think I ever managed to escape. I'm writing this in the cue line.
What is your biggest fear?
That I'll never get to see outer space.
What secret talents do you have?
I can drink a sailor under the table, does that count?
If you could have any accent from anywhere in the world, what would you choose?
It has to be an accent on this world?
Do you ever daydream about people you see at the park? Airport? Train station? Mall? And build romance scenes around them while you daydream?
No. I daydream that when I'm jogging everyone around me is a zombie and I have to avoid them for fear of being eaten.
What would you name the autobiography of your life?
"You're never going to believe who is still alive."
What chore do you absolutely hate doing?
Dishes are the bane of my existence.
What’s the stupidest thing you’ve ever done?
I've lit my hair on fire at a restaurant. The candle made it super romantic...until it wasn't.
If someone asked you to give them a random piece of advice, what would you say?
I would look them fiercely in the eyes and tell them "DO NOT GET ON THAT PLANE."
Do you write naked?
No, but I'm pretty sure I've woken up that way in a club in Canada.
What’s the first thing you notice about people?
The bulge in their pants
