FAQ

IN WHICH I ATTEMPT TO ANSWER THE MOST FREQUENTLY-ASKED QUESTIONS:


Yes, and thank you for asking! Interviews are granted on first-come first-served basis. I can’t answer them on a deadline for you, because I complete them in between other writing projects.


For the moment, I don’t do vlogs, because no one wants to hear my kids or my dogs howling in the background. Also: hair and make-up people are hard to come by in the outer boondocks of Sparkleville.

My fees for personal appearances vary. Please email me with further details about your event, and I’ll get back to you as soon as possible: lisa (at) lisamantchev (dot) com

I am fantastically flattered that you chose me or any of my books as a subject for your paper. At this time, though, I can’t answer questions of that nature due to time constraints and the fact that there’s a fine, wavery, messy line between “helping” and “doing your homework for you.”

I do not currently have any titles available as ARCs, but thank you for asking!

Currently, I have swag for:

  • THE THEATRE NOVELS: rack cards, backstage pass bracelets, signed bookplates. Please note I only mail out one signed bookplate per request.
  • TICKER: bookmarks, rack cards, golden “Overabundance of Nonsense” seal, Violet’s "BAKE CAKE" knuckle tattoos, signed bookplates
  • SUGAR SKULLS: signed bookplates by *both* authors
  • PICTURE BOOKS: Assorted stickers

To get any of the above, all you have to do is send me a SASE with enough postage to get it back to you. Please include a note as to which swag packs you would like.


Book bloggers can request any of the above for a giveaway *if* they plan on running a contest that includes a copy of the book (print or digital) as a prize. At this time, I cannot provide books for giveaways.

First, check my Appearances page to see if I have anything coming up near you. Since most of my events are in WA state, chances are you will need to stick your books in a large bubble envelope and include another self-addressed bubble envelope with enough postage on it to get the books back to you. Please include a note or a Post-It detailing how/to whom you want the books inscribed.

I have another picture book under contract with S&S and I am currently drafting a new YA novel/series that someone should really option for a movie. (whispers) Netflix, call me.
