Book interview - Flip The Switch by Christi Buker


Please tell us a little about the book

It is titled Flip The Switch - It is my trauma testimonial. Informally written to relate to the reader. Covers topics of many kids of abuse, addiction, health concerns, infertility, self-harm, and healing.


Where did the inspiration come from for your book?

My life and experiences. I had talked with and helped friends and thought, why not offer my story and journey to others.


How did you find the experience of writing this book?

Therapeutic in a sense. Writing about the bad parts, even after you have healed is a bit taxing, but I also felt it was a type of closure, or finalization.


Did you draw any inspiration from any real life people with any of your characters?

All of them as it is non-fiction.


If you could say anything to readers of this  book then what would it be?

Pain is part of the healing, don’t be afraid to let yourself feel it, just don’t stay there. There are so many resources for help, please reach out. You are not alone.


Are there plans for more from these characters, or is it a stand alone piece?

Stand alone, though I am writing fiction now.

Francessca Bella interview

AUTHOR INTERVIEW     A little introduction: My name is Francessca Bella, author of Mazarine Dreamer, and I'm creative, writerly, artistic, studious, organized, striving, productive, insightful, an INTJ, and I thrive with verbomania.  My favorite words are  rarissima , fanasticality, peachy-keen,  vivace , and automagical.  When did your love of books begin? Books and art filled my mind, time, and imagination since childhood when I read voraciously and drew daily. My imagination always was activated and kept active  through the creative mediums. When did you start to have the wish to become an author? I lived as uniquely as fiction, residing in a new state, a new world, every other month and loving it; despite going to 36 different schools I graduated with a 4.0 GPA and went to college where my desire to become an author began with my mother as my inspiring encouragement-giver and co-writer. Looking back now, 29 manuscripts later, it seems like a walk through the park to get that f
