20 Questions for Yours Truly

UPDATE 2: The questions are closed! Thanks for participating. If you still want a minimate, click for this page.

UPDATE: Hey, gang! Be sure to include your AGE and your HOMETOWN with your questions! It's OK to post here instead of e-mailing them in, but we still need that information! Thanks!

To celebrate the upcoming release of Goth Girl Rising, my publisher has decided to make a little video of yours truly answering twenty questions from readers. The only problem with this scheme is that we need questions!

This is your chance -- ask anything you like! Are you curious about the writing process? How I get my ideas? How long it takes me to write a book? What my favorite sandwich is?

Submit your questions to 20questions AT barrylyga.com. Together with my publisher, I'll pick the top twenty questions and answer them in a video interview made just
for fans.... We will be accepting questions from September 1-September 30. Along with your question, please submit your first name, age, and city. If your question is chosen and your name is used on the video, you will also win a Goth Girl Minimate!

Question

I have read that you were strongly influenced by comic books. What about comics specifically have influenced your writing style, characterization, and stories broadly? Were there any specific comics that stick out as having been particularly influential? If so, what were they, and why did they have this impact? Thanks.
