About me:
Danielle Lee Zwissler was born in Dover, Ohio. A small town in Northeast Ohio. Her love of romance and cowboys have helped enrich her life and love of reading.
She is also big fan of William Shatner, Harry Potter, and all things Harlequin.
Her first novel, "Her Last Chance", debuted in 2010 with Firefly & Wisp Books. And then shortly after the sequel, "The Art of Seduction". In 2011, an up and coming publisher, "Books to go Now!" published a trio of short-stories called, "Trio of Sin".
Since then, Danielle has been featured in several anthologies, and 5 erotica books under her pen name, Heather Lane.
Currently, Danielle is working on several fantasy as well as a few western romances.
Her latest set of books are all part of a series called, "Cowboys & Cowgirls". This series features five books, all of the western nature, with sexy lead characters and several subplots. The first in the series is "The Cowboy's Bride" which is now available on paperback as well as ebook. Then the rest of the series will go as followed: Served, Cowgirl Up!, Cowboy Up!, Dakota Falls, and then Tiegen's Bride.

What made you want to write the book?
"Rock, Paper, The Iron Writer!" is a collection of short stories (only 500 words long) that I wrote for a website called "The Iron Writer Challenge". I started taking place in the challenges on Challenge 46. Each one is comprised of four elements. For example: a car, a toaster oven, a rat, and a convertible. From there, you have to write a story that uses all four of the elements and make sense of it. There is voting, a winner, and loads of fun. Four writers compete to see who the "Iron Writer" is. I made the book/short story collection to feature my stories as well as to advertise the Iron Writer website.
Why did you choose the genre that you did?
Since this is a collection of stories all the genres are different. Each story has a different feel to them. I went through yesterday, after receiving a few questions about my writing style and tried to pinpoint which story was my favorite. I have to say, "Tuesdays with Hanna" is my favorite, it is most like the romance genre that I write in now. The other stories range from horror, to mystery, to light comedy.
If you were to name a favourite scene what would it be?
My favorite story was "Tuesdays with Hanna", but my favorite scene would be in "Guns N Roses" and it is when the plot is revealed in the last sentence of the story. I am grim that way.
What part of the book that you found the hardest to write?
The hardest part in writing these stories was the obvious ... trying to make all the elements fit. It is funny, though, I think I did a great job in making a story out of all of them. A lot of people that have read the shorts told me that they'd like to see these develop into books. Me, I am not so interested in that idea. I like short stories...I love stories that you can read a beginning, middle and end, in less than an hour.
When and how did you get the idea for the book?
A friend of mine who is also in The Iron Writer put out a few collections of his own, and his were great. I thought, why not?
What do you look forward to the most with this book being on sale?
I am hoping that with it being free people will download and love it, then purchase my other works. A girl can hope, right? ;)
Where do you see your story going?
It could go anywhere at this point. I can either have a ton of downloads and sales that come from this, or people could hate it and despise me without even looking at the other things. I hope it's the former, instead of the latter. :)
Well lets all thank Danielle for being here and she has some seriously interesting items that she is working on. I hope that she will have a great success with them. Pop by tomorrow for another author's appearance.
