What message are you trying to convey with this book?
My books are about how the power of love can help a person find his or her place in the world.
Do you have a website? Do you manage it yourself or do you have someone run it for you?
Yes, I do, at lisahendrix.com. My blog is also located there, as is my Contest page (which you may want to visit for a chance to win some Viking treasure).
So far, I've done it all myself, with some help from my computer-jockey husband. It's a WordPress site hosted on a third-party ISP, using a free theme I found that switches between Day and Night–-perfect for my immortal Vikings. At some point, I'm sure I'll turn over management to a third-party, but I'm not there yet.

What’s next for you?
The next book is Immortal Outlaw, the story of Steinarr the Proud, who is a lion by night. I'm having a lot of fun with this one, which is my take on what really happened in Sherwood Forest. I'm just finishing it up, and it will be out June 2009.
The Immortal Brotherhood consists of nine men, the nine survivors of the crew of raiders caught by the sorceress Cwen. She cursed all of them, so of course they all have to have books. And since that first dream image was of a man who was a thousand years old, each book will be set in a different century, bringing the whole series through that thousand years into the present. It's going to mean a lot of research, a lot of fun, and a lot of work. It's also going to require a fair amount of patience from my readers, since I'm not the world's fastest writer. But in return for that patience, I promise that each of the guys will have his book.
Thank you for this interview, Lisa! Do you have any final words you’d like to share with my readers?
I really enjoyed it, thank you.
My final words are a reminder of what a great thing books are, especially when times are a little unsteady. They're cheaper than going to a movie, they can be re-read as often as you like, and they make great gifts: all in all, one of the best treats you can buy yourself.
