Q & A WITH MISTY

Are you the model on the covers of your books? Who designs your book covers? Who does your editing?

Answers from the top (because I love a question that answers itself):

– Yes, I’m the model on all my book covers—except A Touch of Evil. That one needed a man, and while I might be handsome, I’m not quite the right kind of handsome for that cover.

– Yep, I design all my book covers myself. I’m proud of them, so feel free to check them out and tell me which one’s your favorite.

– Also me. I used bullet points here because, honestly, I didn’t feel like wrestling with sentence structure and a colon.

– Sure, I’ve had a little help along the way (don’t we all?), but for the most part, MistyMacBooks is a one-woman show. I’m the writer, producer, designer, director… everything but makeup artist—because who needs makeup when it’s all about me?

And if I weren’t me, the first thing I’d ask is:
“Misty, how do you find the time?”
Well, I multi-task. A lot.

Are you a professional model and/or a professional photographer?

No and no.
I bought my Nikon D7000 as a Christmas gift to myself in 2014, and it took me about six months just to figure out how to focus—so draw your own conclusions.

As for the modeling... if you look at my earlier stories (you do know they come with photos, right?), you might notice my hands look a little purple and my neck’s a bit cordy. That’s because I used to hold my breath while posing—until I made myself dizzy. These days, my hands stay pink, so I must’ve learned something.

Technically, someone’s a “professional” when they get paid. I pay myself, so... no, I’m not a professional photographer or model.
But I treat my photography, modeling, and writing like a profession—so maybe that makes me one after all.

Can I shoot you?

I only shoot myself. Ha.

Yes, yes, I know—it’s a serious question. Just give me a second to recover from the bad joke. (I’ve stopped saying that line anyway—it sounds a little too dark, and that’s definitely not my vibe.)

So here’s the real answer: no. I’m not a model—I’m a writer. Or at least, that’s what I’m trying to be. Hopefully I’m not turning out to be a better model than writer... right?

Honestly, I’d make a terrible model. I’d stomp my feet, complain about the lighting, insist on checking every shot the second it’s taken. Classic neurotic writer behavior. So no, you can’t shoot me—but it means a lot that you’d want to.

Are you the girl on Instagram/Tumblr/Twitter?

If her name is Misty Macallister, looks like me, and walks like me—then yes, she’s me.
I’m on Instagram, Tumblr, Twitter... and I was on Facebook (until Facebook deleted me—rude).

I post to Instagram at least twice a day, tumble often when the mood strikes, and tweet... well, let’s just say I dabble.

Why don't you show your face?

Why do you write erotica?

There’s nothing wrong with writing about people having sex—unless you’re a prude who doesn’t like sex. And that’s just sad, because sex is really lovely when it’s done right… kind of like good writing. When it’s done well, it’s worth the time.

Do you write from experience?

If it’s based on personal experience, it’s called memoir. I write fiction.
That said… there is a scene in one of my stories that comes straight from real life. And wow—what an experience it was. Ahem. Anyway, read my stories. And encourage your loved ones to have sex—it’s good for them in all kinds of ways. Don’t take my word for it—ask your doctor. Just make sure it’s a doctor who knows what they’re talking about.

Other questions I get?

Are you married? Do you work out? Want to meet? Afraid of the dark? Ever been tied up? Can you undo knots? Do you want to be tied up?

Yes—very!
Yes—a lot!
Um… probably not.
Not really…
Well… maybe. Why?
Now I’m locking my door and propping a chair under the doorknob, just in case.

These questions probably shouldn’t come back-to-back in all caps, but hey—I’ve seen worse.
If you’ve got a question, feel free to ask. As long as it doesn’t make me want to bolt the windows, I’ll try to answer it.
