For my second Twitterview hosting experience, I got to quiz Roz Morris.
Squeeeeee!
For those of you who don’t know, Roz is the ghost writer for some 12 bestselling novels.
She is also an editor and book doctor (are the two the same? Read the Storify linked below to find out!), and in recent years she’s self-published two novels under her own name and the first two books in her Nail Your Novel series, all bestsellers. She also writes articles all over the internet, teaches writing and self-publishing classes … the woman is amazing.
And so gracious with her time! When we proposed the Twitterview as the culmination of a month-long Roz Morris spotlight on the M2the5th Google Plus community, little did we suspect how engaged Roz would be. Lori Sailiata, Amy Pabalan, and I may have shared her blogs, videos, and articles, but she commented on every one, and we had some interesting conversations.
If you visit her web site (linked above), you can find out all about Roz, her consultancy services, her books, and everything else.
You can also read the Storify of the Twitterview (put together by chief Tweet wrangler, Lori): https://storify.com/LaraBrittWrites/mto5-twitterview-roz-morris
#Mto5 Roz Morris Twitterview Storify
Yesterday’s Twitterview was a great time. It’s really a matter of controlled chaos, or mischief managed, if you like the Harry Potter allusion.
Not only is Roz a great writer and writing coach, but she also, as Amy learned, owns a horse, which boosted Roz’s cool quotient in Amy’s eyes. And if that wasn’t enough, Roz attended circus classes and tried out everything from juggling to the trapeze.
New Twitter friend Mark was active throughout the hour-long session, but other participants, including Porter Anderson, retweeted and shared some of Roz’s gems during and after the Twitterview.
And that’s not all!
M2the5th (Mostly Multicultural, Mysteries, Memoir, and Myth) will be holding weekly Nail Your Novel Tweet chats followed by video hangout workshops on Saturdays throughout April (except for Easter weekend). Join the Google Plus community for more details as they emerge.
We want to keep the Roz-love going because her third Nail Your Novel will be coming out this spring!
Wheeeee!
Always Looking Up 
Yes, it’s quite a blizzard when those Twitter events are done properly. I for one needed a nap before I could begin to dive in an wrangle up the tweets in their logical threads. I’m definitely a Storify fangirl. It keeps the event going on for those who missed it in real time too. Thank you, Melanie for some outstanding questions and for keeping us on track. That is quite a feat in itself!

It was a lot of fun, but a heap of nerves too. Good experience, though. I highly recommend it.

Hi Melanie – and all the M2the5th crowd! Thanks for making me so welcome and for keeping my fingers smoking in the tweetchat! That was just the warm-up – next Saturday we’ll get down to some real novelising work. Hope to see you then
