Interview with Cyn Balog

July 24, 2009 By C. Lee McKenzie


CYN BALOG’s FAIRY TALE is here just in time for a great summer read. Here’s a sneak preview of what you have in store for you.

Morgan Sparks and Cam Browne are a match made in heaven. They’ve been best friends since birth, they tell each other everything, and oh yeah- they’re totally hot for each other. But a week before their joint Sweet Sixteen bash, everything changes. Cam’s awkward cousin Pip comes to stay, and Morgan is stunned when her formerly perfect boyfriend seems to be drifting away. When Morgan demands answers, she’s shocked to discover the source of Cam’s distance isn’t another girl- it’s another world. Pip claims that Cam is a fairy. No, seriously. A fairy.

And now his people want Cam to return to their world and take his rightful place as Fairy King.

Determined to keep Cam with her, Morgan plots to fool the fairies. But as Cam continues to change, she has to decide once and for all if he really is her destiny, and if their “perfect” love can weather an uncertain future.

So how’s that for sweet plot?

Now About Cyn Balog

Cyn Balog is a normal, everyday Jersey Girl who always believed magical things can happen to us when we least expect them. She’s also the Race & Event Manager for several national fitness magazines. She lives outside Allentown, Pennsylvania with her husband and young daughter. Both are 100% human, or so she thinks. FAIRY TALE is her first novel.

When Cyn stopped by to tell us a little bit more about herself she was patient enough to answer some questions.

Of all your favorite books, which one do you wish you had written?

FEED by MT Anderson… the voice is just… brilliance… and the end makes me weep. It somehow makes you care about a character who can not bring himself to care about anyone or anything.

I loved that book too. Glad we agree on that one. So let’s talk about fictional characters. If you could be a character in a book which one would you choose?

Oh, it would have to be one of the Disney princesses, because I’m all for living happily ever after.

Oh, yes. And speaking of being happy, after chocolate what do you eat to make the writer-block pain go away?

I chew gum. I think they must have made Wrigley’s LUSH-flavored gum in like, heaven. It comes in this sexy black packaging, too, and yet I can still amuse myself by blowing bubbles with it.

Sounds like a calorie-saving plan as well. Thanks for stopping in. It’s been great talking with you.

Cyn Balog’s FAIRY TALE is available at Amazon, so order it now and enjoy a summer reading treat. Also stop by her website and see what else she’s up to.
