I am thrilled to have Lisa Prysock with us today! Thank you so much for joining us!
PM: You have written stories in so many different genres, I hate to ask, but do you have a favorite, or at least one genre you lean more favorably to?
LM: First, thank you so much, Paula, for hosting me for Coffee Questions.
Favorite genre to write in? I lean toward historical romance, bouncing from the Victorian Gilded Age, to Regency, to the Scarlett O’Hara Era, to Mail Order Bride and the Pioneer Era. However, once I finally tried to write contemporary, I fell in love with it also, and then there’s the whole world of Royal Romance and the stuff fairy tales are made of. I can’t seem to pick just one. I am completely smitten with them all. If I can dream it, I can write it.
PM: When do you find the time to write? Where is your favorite place to write?
LM: Since my children graduated from homeschool (I homeschooled the youngest two for six years), I write as a full time career.
My favorite place to write in the winter is the dining room table near the fireplace, bookcases, our piano, and a hutch with a few of my favorite dishes. However, I usually write in my writing office. It doubles as a craft/sewing room. Hubby installed a ginormous L-shaped desk for me and it faces a wooded area across the street. The view is serene and inspires my writing.
PM: From your bio, I see you have lived in several different area’s of the US and Kentucky is your home, what do you love most about living in Kentucky?
LM: I love the lay of the land and the rich history here. I am also in love with the people here. Many of them have a kind of southern charm and friendliness, along with a love for God and country.
PM: If you could be a superhero, what would you want your superpowers to be?
LM: Can I be a princess and help make the world a better place? My kingdom will be a place of love and kindness where evil isn’t allowed to exist.
PM: If we were to open you your refrigerator right now, what would we find in it?
LM: Yogurt, Golden Delicious apples, leftover spaghetti, green beans, coffee creamer, water, spinach dip, and salad. Did I mention coffee creamer? Heh, heh. Lots of coffee creamer.
PM: What are you reading for fun right now?
LM: I’m honored to be in a multi-author series “Whispers in Wyoming” with Kari Trumbo, and am reading her book, Sensitive and Secure. It’s about a stalker, LOL.
PM: Do you write stories more from your own experiences, or do you spend a lot time doing research on the type of characters your creating?
LM: Definitely some of both. I research a ton of stuff, but I also draw upon my own experiences.
PM: Who was your greatest influence when you decided to become an author?
LM: Lucy Maude Montgomery, Jane Austen, Laura Ingalls Wilder, Louisa May Alcott, Margaret Mitchell, and Jesus have been my main influences.
I fell in love with books at a young age. My mother and grandparents loved books and had extensive collections. My mom would read lots of stories to my sisters and me when we were children. Then I discovered the world of modern day Christian Historical Romance and many writers continued to influence me like Tracy Peterson and Janette Oke. I’d have to say growing up watching television producers like Michael Landon drew me to writing as well. A dream for me is to have Michael Landon, Jr. bring my books to life on screen. (I hope he’s reading this.)
PM: Tell us what you enjoy doing the most when you are not writing or reading?
LM: I like swimming, taking a walk, going to visit and tour historical houses, cross stitching, crochet, drawing, gardening, dancing around the house while I’m cooking or cleaning to Christian contemporary artists, going out to dinner with my family, and watching a really great Hallmark or family oriented movie, but my guilty pleasure is watching a really awesome PBS series with my husband like “Downton Abbey,” “Pride & Prejudice,” “Poldark,” or anything I can find that’s completely old-fashioned.
PM: How can readers keep up with you and your new releases?
LM: Check out my author website at www.LisaPrysock.com and sign up for my newsletter while you’re there. (There’s a little box that pops up with an invitation.)
PM: Finally, coffee or tea? Cream, sugar?
LM: Coffee, with cream, no sugar. Tea in the afternoons, with sugar, and sometimes honey.

About Lisa M. Prysock
I would name the baby Emory Evan, whether a boy or girl.
What an excellent suggestion, Karen! Thank you for sharing!
Great name suggestion, Karen. Thank you for commenting.
Jessica if it’s a girl, Jeremy if it’s a boy.
Aww, those are sweet names, Kim! Appreciate you visiting with us today!
Thanks for commenting and with two cute name ideas for Harry and Meghan. 😊
If I could name Harry and Megan’s baby, I would name the girl Diana after his mother. I’d name a boy Jerome, just cause I like it!
Thank you, Trudy! I would have to agree about the girl name, sigh…..Lady Di was amazing!
Thanks for stopping by, Trudy! Love your name suggestions, especially Diana.
Victoria if it’s a girl and Albert if it’s a boy☺️
What lovely historical references for names! Great ideas, Mary! Thank you for sharing.
Absolutely love these name ideas. Very appropriate for a royal baby.
James and Katherine
Nice suggestion, Lisa! I really like those too!
Excellent name suggestions! Aunt Katherine would be honored. 😊 Thanks, Lisa!
I would pick Henry for s boy and Diana for a girl. Great giveaway! Thank you!
Very fitting names, Dorothy! I can’t help but sentimental about the name Diana!
I love these name choices, Dorothy! Very regal. 😊
Hm, royal babies need something sweet yet beautiful. I would name them: Boy – Tristian and Girl – Melody
I started reading early also. Have not stopped. Wow so many wonderful genres you write. This is wonderful. I would be a princess also, and help people see that kindness and compassion are wanted, needed and rewarmed.
Lori, your comment has left a huge smile with me this morning! Beautiful names, too. 😊
Aww, that is so sweet, Lori, I love those names! And who doesn’t wish they were a princess at least once in a while?? Thank you so much for sharing with us today!
Julie and Steven
Sweet names, Julie! Thank you for sharing with us today!
I would name the girl Victoria Annalise and the boy Christopher Patrick. It sounds like you and I have a lot of the same taste in books and music!
Lovely name suggestions, Candace! Thank you for sharing!
For a girl, I think Harry and Meghan should pick, Diana. Personally, it’s not one of my favorite names, but I think one of their children should be called that, just because of the amazing person, their mother was.
For a boy………Timothy.
