Can
you tell me something about yourself?
I have lived my
entire life in Tennessee and Georgia, except for one ‘lost summer’ spent in Los
Angeles.
What
inspired you to write?
I have always written
articles on different subjects however Fables
of the Reconstruction is my debut novella. Earlier this year I ruptured
my Achilles tendon and have had major complications and setbacks to the healing
process. So, I’ve had lots of time on my hands to research and write during the
last few months.
I’m
sorry to hear that Hunter and hope you are well soon.
Who
are you favourite authors?
Thanks for asking,
it’s just so difficult to choose from so many gifted people. I own more Anne
Rice book’s than any other author, so that must mean something.
Can
you tell me something about your latest book?
Fables of the Reconstruction is the story of a Belgian pimp, Pierre
von Minzle, living in Victorian London with a 'magic' powder, claiming to be
undead. He believes in Pomba Gira mysticisms & follows Creole Voodoo. He
believes he has found his equal in Mary Montague, and makes her undead, too. The
story itself is told from four points of view. There is a modern, surprise
twist to the book's ending.
Oh
my, this sounds intriguing; I will have to read your novella.
So,
how long did it take you to write it?
From the first day
writing to the publishing date, Fables of
the Reconstruction took ten weeks. The stories were in my imagination, just
waiting to be researched and told.
Can
you tell us something about the writing process, do you have a set time for
writing, did you do any research or anything else of interest that was
involved?
I attempt to write
100 words every day. My best writing and ideas seem to present themselves at
night. I am a huge history buff and have travelled extensively so that enabled
me to have an understanding of the locations created for Fables of the Reconstruction.
What
do you think readers will come away with when they have finished your book?
I hope readers will
look forward to Book 2 – Reconstruction of the Fables – coming in Spring 2013.
THANK
YOU FOR THIS INTERESTING EXCERPT...
Invocation to the Goddess
Pomba Gira is a
wonderful Goddess. Treat her with respect and reverence and she will bestow her
blessings upon you. A beguiling spirit, Pomba Gira gives comfort to the broken
hearted, vengeance for the wronged, and a fierce path for those that will take
her as muse.
Pomba Gira is the
Goddess of the Night. She is the Goddess of guitars, cemeteries, tombs,
streets, crossroads, the soul, and the oceans. There are various manifestations
of the Goddess, such as Maria Padilha, Compass Rose, Queen of the Seven
Crossroads, Pombagira of Calunga, Pombagira of Souls, Gypsy Pombagira,
Pombagira Maria Mulambo, Red Rose, Miss Rosie Skull.
Really, wouldn’t you be disappointed if a girl from Nashville didn’t
start her book with a prayer to the Goddess of the guitar?

a New Amsterdam, available soon on Amazon.com
