Interview:

1. What footwear is your character wearing in Kicking It? 
Chris Marie Green: Very hip boots that seem to be made of vines…and that won’t come off. Oh, and she doesn’t remember where she got them. She also can’t remember her own identity! 
Lucienne Diver: My character is wearing silver stiletto boots with Plexiglas heels. They are her idea the way the Wicked Witch of the West would embrace dancing in the rain with her flying monkeys. 

2. How many pairs of boots do you currently own?  
Chris Marie Green: Four pairs: two very comfortable Uggs, one fairly fashionable knee-high brown pair with chunky heels, one well-adored cowboy pair.
Lucienne Diver: I own at least four pairs—black, black thigh-highs, red lace ups and brown suede. I’d know exactly, but since moving to Florida I don’t have as many chances to wear my boots as I’d like! 

3. What color is your favorite pair of boots? 
Chris Marie Green: Light brown suede (the cowboy boots). 
Lucienne Diver: Black. My favorite pair would have to be the thigh highs. I think my husband would agree. 

4. What type of boots do you prefer? Cowboy boots? Riding boots? Biker- boots? Over-the-knee dominatrix boots? Do share!  
Chris Marie Green: I love, love, love my cowboy boots. I wear them constantly. The poor things are worn out but I Can’t. Let. Go. I can’t! When they finally fall apart, I will cry. 
Lucienne Diver: Over the knee dominatrix boots. Come on, admit it, anyone shocked? 

5. What’s your most recent boot purchase? Why that pair? 
Chris Marie Green: One of the Uggs. They are the most comfortable things, even though they’re kind of considered passé, I guess. But I say comfort never goes out of style!
Lucienne Diver: I most recently bought ankle boots because I was going to an ice bar in Orlando with friends and all I’d brought with me were open toed shoes. Brrr!

6. Why did you choose those boots for the story? 
Chris Marie Green: I can’t give too much away because the boots are a part of the story’s mystery, but let’s just say I needed something with a living component to them… Also, I thought they would look super cool. 
Lucienne Diver: When you’re going Fembot meets alien queen, what else is a gal to wear?
