Welcome
from Vancouver, British Columbia, award-winning paranormal novelist Karen
Magill!
What does paranormal
mean to you?
Paranormal,
to me, just means things that people don’t always accept as normal. I write on
things like out of body experiences, (see The
Bond, A Paranormal Love Story), ESP and visions, events that are just a
little beyond what most of society accepts as normal. I don’t write on vampires
or werewolves or such. At least not yet.
What paranormal
activities have you witnessed?
I can’t
say I have witnessed paranormal activities. I have heard of them and believe in
them.
Of all the genres, why
write paranormal?
I like to
say that I am on a mission to make the paranormal, normal. I believe that
psychic visions and ESP are possible for everyone if we could just open our
minds.
Have you encountered or
written any paranormal activity that includes/involves horses?
I don’t
think I have had a paranormal experience with horses. In August of 1984, I was
horseback riding and the horse had a heart attack and fell on me, cracking my
skull in the process. If I had any psychic events or out of body experiences at
that time, I don’t remember.
Where do you like to
write?
I have a
desktop computer and I like to put in a CD, put on the headphones then sit
here, in my living room, and just write. Once that music is on, I can get more
accomplished and the time just flies by.
Do you write as you are
investigating?
I don’t
investigate paranormal activity. I read about it and the rest is from my
imagination.
When combining
historical facts with fiction, do you have to have permissions from the
historical person/families?
Usually I
don’t use the names of the families involved in history though in Missing Flowers, I did use the name of a
madam here in Vancouver in the late 1800s because she had the same name as my
great-grandmother.
In my
upcoming paranormal mystery, A Little
Poison, I do mention a woman who was murdered in Stanley Park in the
seventies. I didn’t get permission but I did quote where I got the information
on her murder from.
What books have you
written?
The Bond, A Paranormal Love Story
Let Us Play, A Rock ‘n Roll Love
Story, known as Mystique Rising in Kindle
Missing Flowers
A Little Poison, to be released soon I hope.
What are you currently
writing?
I am
working on something different. I am writing a non fiction, motivational book
about my journey with MS. I hope to self publish it next spring and its title
is On The Right Side; My Story of
Survival and Success.
List 10 things that
people may not know about you....
This is
difficult. Give me a moment to think.
I like
classical music. Everyone knows me as a rocker chic but sometimes I just like
to mellow out to some Bach.
I can get
quite obsessive, especially with things I like. I have been told that I have
stalker like tendencies though my psychiatrist told me that I am just eccentric.
I prefer
to be alone then with other people. I joke that I don’t play well with others.
I have a
short attention span.
I am not
patient. Actually, that one will be no surprise to anyone who knows me!
I can be
self-centered.
I can be
too focused, to the exclusion of everything else around me.
I like to
live in a dream world of my own making. Reality is highly overrated.
I like to
make people laugh.
I get
discouraged and down sometimes. But most people don’t know that because it
doesn’t last long.
