I think readers who are looking for something a little off-kilter will enjoy this book. It’s a fast-paced dark comedy/crime story that will appeal to fans of the Coen Brothers, Ben Stiller, and similar artists.

The decision to write the book to alleviate the anger and nausea I felt about Trump’s election was easy. I also can adopt a somewhat natural comic look at terrible situations, the ability to laugh to keep from crying.

I like editing but often, I might come back to a work I loved and decide it’s garbage and then return again and love it. Refining it is like sculpting in a sense and discovering deep levels of the story without (hopefully) making it become contrived.

This tiny nugget threw me for a major loop. Annie Oakley was one of the greatest heroes of her time. How is it no one knows of this story? Why has this never been told before?

I have guilty pleasures like anyone else, but my “jam” is definitely non-fiction, diversity (both in content and authors), books set in a destination, horror, morbid topics (i.e. books about death), historical fiction, books written by female authors, books that have a “deeper” message about hot topic issues (i.e. abortion, race, etc), and so on.

I still feel very strongly that most people who pick up a book of fiction want to be swept away into a story, whether it’s romance, adventure or even horror. It’s the same reason why we go see a movie or play a videogame. We want the experience.

I think any character is made up by a collage of qualities collected from real people you know, or from yourself.

After an agent gave me some excellent, succinct advice about “raising the stakes,” I realized I had to take the plunge and make the difficult decision to cut several chapters and characters, even though I loved them.
