Today I’m happy to welcome Rhonda Stapleton (the last, but not the least of the 2009 Debutantes) to my blog, to answer a few questions about her debut YA novel Stupid Cupid.

Q: Tell us about a scene or character from your novel that was especially easy (or especially difficult) to write.

A: The tarot card reading scene was surprisingly easy to write…in fact, it’s the only scene my editor didn’t bleed all over. LOL

Q: What is your favorite (or one of your favorite) myths or fairy-tales, and why? Or alternately, what fairy-tale or myth do you dislike, and why?

A: I am fascinated (and super saddened) by the little mermaid–the original one, where she turns into sea foam. Wow, how awful is that, really?

Q: So, what has been the most exciting part of selling your book(s) and getting published so far?

A: Getting my final author copies in. It’s really real now!! How crazy is that?!?!

About Stupid Cupid
Felicity Walker believes in true love. That’s why she applies for a gig at the matchmaking company Cupid’s Hollow. But when Felicity gets the job, she learns that she isn’t just a matchmaker…she’s a cupid! (There’s more than one of them, you know.)

Armed with a hot pink, tricked-out PDA infused with the latest in cupid magic (love arrows shot through email), Felicity works to meet her quota of successful matches. But when she bends the rules of cupidity by matching her best friend Maya with three different boys at once, disaster strikes. Felicity needs to come up with a plan to set it all right, pronto, before she gets fired…and before Maya ends up with her heart split in three.

About Rhonda Stapleton
Rhonda Stapleton started writing a few years ago to appease the voices in her head. She has a Master’s degree in English and a Bachelor’s degree in Creative Writing. Rhonda works as an editor for a legal publishing company and enjoys offering editing workshops. Rhonda lives in Northeast Ohio with her lovely, energetic family, who are more than enough to keep her busy when she’s not writing.

In the twelve minutes of free time she has each day, Rhonda enjoys reading, photography, writing poetry, singing in the shower (and in the car, at work, or basically anywhere that provides oxygen), drinking chai tea, and playing on the Internet.
