Burglar Molly Miranda is partnered up with an untrustworthy wildcard for a job assignment. Hilarity ensues.
What inspired you to write Molly Miranda: Thief for Hire?
I was looking for a funny action novel featuring a female protagonist and I couldn't find one. I'd been trying to come up with a premise for a book for years. It totally figures that when I finally did, it was entirely by accident.
Where do you do most of your writing?
My corner desk in my bedroom/office on my iMac.
What is your favorite book?
The book that means the most to me in the whole world is "Angus, Thongs & Full-Frontal Snogging" by Louise Rennison. It taught me at a young age that books can be funny.
Which part of Molly Miranda: Thief for Hire did you enjoy writing the most?
The action scenes were so much fun. I also love writing the witty banter between Rhys (the aforementioned untrustworthy wildcard) and Molly. Witty banter is their natural state.
Who is your favorite literary heroine?
I live in Prince Edward Island so I'm tempted to say Anne Shirley from Anne of Green Gables. I also adore Heather from Meg Cabot's Size 12 is Not Fat mystery series. And, obviously, Mia from The Princess Diaries.
Do you have any tips for readers who are looking to become published writers?
I skipped the traditional route and went right for publishing independently. If you're looking to go indie too, start learning what it takes to self-publish as early as you can. There is much to learn.
Are you working on anything else at the moment and if so, can you tell us?
I'm working on the sequel to Molly Miranda: Thief for Hire. While the first one takes place largely in England, this one takes place in France. It also picks up where we left off with Molly and the gang.
Thanks, Jillianne!

It doesn’t help that this new part-in-crime is super annoying. And attractive…
