Author Interview: Ann Snizek

Author Ann Snizek writes young adult urban fantasy with a fresh science fiction twist. Who am I? I’m an eclectic person and a bit of a homebody. I do enjoy going out and doing things, but I completely enjoy my quiet time at home. We have a small homestead-in-progress (meaning we are slowly working toward being as self-sufficient as possible). I love animals, art, music, theater, movies, and…

I've posted about Deacon Timothy Flanigan in the past, and now he's in the news once again, talking about the coronavirus and how to avoid getting it and spreading it. From Rhode Island Catholic:  RICK SNIZEK: Should large gatherings, such as weekend Masses in particular, be avoided if more positive cases are identified locally? How

Vánoční příběhy: Snížek - dokáže Bel pomoci malé Lucy a najde jejího kocourka?

Bel má rozporuplné pocity, jelikož má Vánoce strávit u babičky. To by nebyl až takový problém, kdyby babička nebydlela ve starém domě, který nebudí v Bel zrovna ten nejlepší dojem. To ale neznamená, že by babičku neměla ráda, právě naopak. Bel spolu s rodiči jezdili za babičkou často. Někdy se stalo, že maminka Bel jen tak vysadila a nechala…- Více na https://www.kritiky.cz/vanocni-pribehy-snizek-dokaze-bel-pomoci-male-lucy-a-najde-jejiho-kocourka/

HOLYOKE — Improving the academic success of Latino students will be the subject of a talk on Wednesday, May 23, by Carlos Santiago, commissioner of the Massachusetts Department of Higher Education, featured speaker at an afternoon event focused on strengthening Holyoke Community College (HCC) as a Hispanic Serving Institution.

Santiago’s talk, “Latinx Students in Public Higher Education” — rescheduled twice before because of snowstorms — will begin just before 3 p.m. in HCC’s Leslie Phillips Theater, followed by a question-and-answer session.

That talk will be introduced at 2 p.m. by a faculty and staff panel discussion concentrating on HCC’s future as a Hispanic Serving Institution, or HSI. On the panel will be HCC Spanish professors Raúl Gutiérrez and Mónica Torregrosa; Myriam Quiñones, coordinator of HCC’s Multicultural Academic Services program; and Michele Snizek, HCC director of Retention and Student Success.

“Our goal is to develop a common understanding of our Hispanic Serving Institution designation and collectively form a vision of HCC as an effective HSI,” said HCC President Christina Royal.

‘Hispanic Serving Institution’ is a federal designation for colleges and universities where more than 25% of the student population is Hispanic. HCC received status as an HSI in 2017. As an HSI, HCC is now eligible for federal grants that can be used to improve services and programs that benefit all students.

The HSI event is part of HCC’s year-long strategic planning initiative. Earlier in the day, from 11:30 a.m. to 1:30 p.m., HCC will be holding a “Future Walk” celebration in the hallways and theater lobby in the Fine & Performing Arts building. In addition to music and refreshments, HCC will unveil its new strategic plan — including mission, vision, and values statements and a timeline showing how the plan was developed — and solicit feedback.

A reception in the theater lobby will follow Santiago’s talk. All events are free and open to the public.

I’ve known for quite some time that The Haunted Story: Dead Letter needed a better cover. My amateurish attempt wasn’t catching anyone’s eye.

The cover I designed myself

I needed something professional and eye-catching. An image that would sell the book for me. So far I’ve only sold any when I’ve found people on Facebook that are spooky horror fans and pitched the book to them. I don’t mind talking about my stories, it’s just a little more time consuming than I’d like since I also need to finish writing Hermes925, keep this blog up to date, try to find odd-jobs and freelance work so I can pay my way while I’m doing all this, and keep working on the rest of the Haunted Story series!

The fact that I needed better cover art was so distracting I couldn’t even focus on my book projects, knowing that every book I put out would require similar one-on-one marketing to sell. Then yesterday, driven by who knows what, I posted one of my favourite conversation topics on Facebook:

Click the pic to see people’s comments and add your own!

As a result I ended up having a very productive conversation with Heather Montgomery, a talented cover designer, merch maker, and author in her own right! She designs most of her own covers. Check out her website to see some of her other work. She came up with these three great designs for me:

It took me a while to pick a favourite because they were each so awesome in their own way, and far better than mine. If the Amazon page has already been updated, then you might already know that I ended up picking this one:

Isn’t it spectacular?

I love it! I’m going to use Heather’s designs for all of the Haunted Story series, and the sci-fi Hermes925 too! If I get the chance to do a book-signing event of some kind in future I will probably have her design some matching T-shirts for each book too!

I am unbelievably excited about this partnership. Please check out her website and show her some love. She writes under the name Ann Snizek, and her new paranormal/scifi For: Giva de Vine, is for available through a variety of online sources.

Please help us both out and share this article around and, as always, have a great day! 🙂

My published short story has an awesome new cover! I've known for quite some time that The Haunted Story: Dead Letter needed a better cover. My amateurish attempt wasn't catching anyone's eye.
