MMGM and an out of this WORLD Visit with @AceHansenMG

Hey all! Taking a break from a break because I have a really important visitor with me today. He actually let me ask a few questions about him and his upcoming release! And before you continue with the interview, do let apologize about the smell...green farts you know. Not me! Not me! Him. Seriously, Ace. You could have held on to that one. 

Okay, maybe not. Anyway, here is some information on Ace's book.

From the publisher: When a mysterious green gas crisis breaks wind, the Global Air Group (GAG) offers a million-dollar prize to the first person to discover the cause. Julius Caesar Brown dreams of winning the cash so he can pay off Jake the Snake, the blackmailing bully who threatens to ruin his chances with the cutest girl in fifth grade. But Julius can barely pass a math test, let alone solve an international scientific mystery. What he needs is money. Fast. His mom volunteers him to help the Zombie Lady. Yeah. The crazy woman down the street who every kid knows eats boys’ brains. But Miss Crabtree’s no zombie. And winning the million-dollar prize may not be as far-fetched as Julius once thought.



And now....the interview! 
I have been following your book release countdown on twitter. A tweetdown if you will. Can you give my readers an update on your book release date? The ebook releases on July 12th, 2013. The print book will be out sometime before December.
Share some thoughts on why it is a must read? Because everyone needs to laugh out loud. And let's face it, green farts are funny!

Do you have a favorite writing spot? My bed. Snack? Gummy worms. Send me some, okay? Writer gear and wear?Pajamas. Anything similar to Anglelina? Since I live inside of her (I'm kind of a parasite) we enjoy all the same habits. 

Any great writing tips you have picked up from your mentor? She's a slave driver! Once she gets going, it's every day. Day in and day out. She never takes a day off! But she feeds me gummy worms, so I tolerate her. Angelina is your mentor I assume? She's more like an odd older sister. 

Future projects you can share with us? There's a clue in the last chapter of the book. Even super secret ones? Bead spring. Mogollon natives. Time travel. That's all I'm saying' We promise to not tell anyone. Sure you won't!!!

How are you enjoying life as a debut author? I've published thousands of books on my home planet, but this is a first for Planet Earth. I'll let you know how much I'm enjoying this debut author life when I figure out how many gummy worms I can buy from the sale of this book. I'm hoping for at least 10000 pounds. That ought to last me a few months. 

How are you planning school visits. 
I'll be appearing as myself. Green skin and everything. Angelina works for the local school district, so I'm hoping she can get me past the principals. 

You will be taking Angelina with you? Nope. I"ll be going it alone. She's too old and too serious. Doesn't even laugh at my jokes. And she refuses to buy me gummy worms after the last incident. . . 
Let her do some of the talking? No way!
Are you looking forward to visits in person and possibly via Skype? I can't wait. Earth kids are hilarious. They ask the funniest questions!

I have a feeling that you have a burning question you really wanted me to ask. Why don't you just go on ahead and answer it. Um, tell us what the question is too please. 
Do aliens fart green, you ask? Yes we do! And our gas smells like turtle breath. Ace.....don't you dare fart right now. 

Here's my website:  http://www.acehansenmg.com

I'm really hoping it shows up on Amazon soon!

Me too, Ace! Thanks for sharing your website. Hope you don't mind, I am going to share Angelina's website, too. And her twitter handle...and yours too of course! 

Angelina's website. She is just an all around awesome write you keeps #wipmadness running year round. Her twitter handle.


Happy MMGM all! And see you back over on Shannon Messenger's site where it all started!

  1. Oh, how funny! Green farts and all. So aliens subsist on gummy worms; I didn't know that. This is most appropriate today, Deb, the 66th anniversary of the Roswell incident!

  8. On behalf of Ace, I'd like to thank you for all your encouraging comments. Ace is off bingeing on gummy worms right now and has left me in charge of all his thank yous. You try to train up an alien right, but. . .

  9. Deb & Ace, loved the interview. Green farts and all!

    Ace, you're one special little alien dude. But do you want to know why I think you're most out of this world? (Pun intended) Because you take care of our Angi. With your great big, green, goofy grin, you've brought a smile to her face. :) Thank you!!!!!! And of course, I can't wait to read your book. :) Looking forward to having you over at my place next week. Warning to blog visitors: please come equipped with gas masks.

  14. I think gummy worms are the key to unlocking the universe, actually.
    Good luck on your quest! And lay off the potato salad. (a.k.a. "farts in a bowl")
