For the next of my Five Question Author Interviews (which i accidentally sent six questions for!), I spoke with Anna Mocikat, another indie author whose work I love. I read her book Behind Blue Eyes recently and it more than deserves all the praise it has received. You can learn more on her author bio here

My love for cyberpunk started early. I think I was in second grade when I saw Tron for the first time. My parents let my brother and me watch it because they saw it’s Disney, so it must be for kids, haha. The Master Control Program scared the crap out of me, but the experience lasted, and the genre never stopped intriguing me. 2-There are a lot of strong characters in Behind Blue Eyes, can you pick your favourite? Although I love my MC Nephilim, who is a really badass chick, I have to say that my heart beats for Metatron, the villain. He’s hyper-intelligent, ruthless and seductive. I enjoyed writing his scenes very much. 3-How did you get into making book trailers? I studied at Film School many years ago and learned how to edit videos professionally. When I started publishing my books, I made trailers for them because I could 😉 After many authors started asking about them and wanted something like this for their books, I began offering the service to other authors. So far, I have made 21 book trailers and am booked out for the next two weeks. It makes me very happy that people like them so much! 4-What other indie author’s books have you read and enjoyed recently? Right now I’m reading Into Neon my Matthew Goodwin, and I am enjoying it very much. Recently I read The Moon Hunters by Anya Pavelle and can highly recommend it. I have your book on my TBR and can’t wait to read it! 5-Tell us more about Cyberpunk Day and the Cyberpunk Coalition The Cyberpunk Coalition is a group of cyberpunk authors, which Matt Goodwin and I founded a couple of months ago. We have initialized the Cyberpunk Day to help make the genre more popular. In my opinion, cyberpunk is the most inventive and sexiest sci-fi subgenre, and we want to show that on Cyberpunk Day. Authors, filmmakers, game developers, musicians, and artists will have live performances during the day, sharing their vision of the genre with the world. Check out our website www.cyberpunkday.com and our Twitter @cyberpunkday for more info! 6- What’s next for you as a writer, and will we see more from the Behind Blue Eyes universe in the future? Yes! I’m currently working on BBE2, which will be out in spring 2021. I think there are plenty of people out there who want to know how Nephilim’s story will continue. Additionally, I am one of the publishers of a cyberpunk anthology, which will feature 15 authors (me included). This book will be out in January, and I’m very excited about the project. All stories in there are of exceptional quality, and I’m convinced that genre fans will love the book! Thanks Anna! You can find Behind Blue Eyes here, www.amazon.co.uk/Behind-Blue-Eyes-Cyberpunk-Thriller-ebook/dp/B088GSXB88 and I would highly recommend that you take a look!
