Q&A with the First Lady of the West, New York Times bestselling author Linda Lael Miller

Linda Lael Miller

Tell us about your first job.

I was a waitress, before and after school, at a place in Northport called The Parrot Room. (Go figure, there were, of course, no parrots.) I loved having my own money, but I didn’t always love getting up early.

What is your favorite way to interact with fans?

Of course the best way to interact with fans is in person—I love to shake their hands or hug them or just say “howdy”—but obviously that isn’t always possible. I tweet and have a Facebook page and, of course, there’s my website, where I blog almost every weekday.

Did you always know you would be a writer?

I first wanted to be an actress, then an astronaut. In some ways, I am an actress, because I live the lives of my characters right along with them. I gave up on being an astronaut when I found out I’d have to be good at math—never gonna happen, folks. I was about 10 when I decided I wanted to be a writer, with some encouragement from a special teacher, and I’ve never really deviated from that course since.

Do you have any “writing necessities”? A favorite snack, drink, pen, laptop, etc.?

No special needs on that score, unless you count coffee and lots of it, and sometimes music by Johnny Cash, Marty Robbins, or Randy Travis, my favorites.

Thanks Linda! That is awesome that you get to try on different personas through your writing. And I agree, coffee is a must! 

Read on to find out more about Linda Lael Miller’s latest book Once a Rancher; book one in The Carsons of Mustang Creek series.

About Once A Rancher:

once a rancher

The Carsons of Mustang Creek: three men who embody the West and define what it means to be a rancher, a cowboy and a hero in this brand-new series from the queen of Western romance.

Slater Carson, the oldest brother, might be a filmmaker by trade, but he’s still a cowboy at heart—and he knows the value of a hard day’s work under the hot Wyoming sun. So when he sees troubled teen Ryder heading down a dangerous path, he offers the boy a job on the ranch he shares with his two younger brothers. And since Ryder’s guardian is the gorgeous new Mustang Creek resort manager, Grace Emery, Slater figures it can’t hurt to keep a closer eye on her as well…

Grace Emery doesn’t have time for romance. Between settling in to her new job and caring for her ex-husband’s rebellious son, her attraction to larger-than-life Slater is a distraction she can’t afford. But when an unexpected threat emerges, she’ll discover just how far Slater will go to protect what matters most—and that love is always worth fighting for.
