Here is an interview I did with Tory Gates, which was primarily about Bountiful Calling. I want to thank Tory for the insightful questions and his willingness to let the conversation detour in directions I had not expected it to turn. For instance, we talked about some of the emotionally challenging sections in Bountiful Calling, scenes that could be difficult to read and were certainly hard to write. I explained that once I hit upon them there was no turning back because I would not substitute them with something safe, something false.
We also talked about my previous novel, The Old Songs. I explained the magic some of the characters experienced when they opened themselves to the power of forgiveness and compassion. And then Tory led me down memory lane, pulling out memories of people and authors that inspired me when I was growing up in Queens, NY. These were things I had not thought about in a long time and enjoyed re-experiencing them very much. I thoroughly enjoyed our talk and hope you find it engaging and entertaining.
