I’m occasionally posting here the kind comments provided by authors who read my new novel SEVEN ANGELS. They’re included in the book – out in paperback on June 1 and available for pre-order – and have my undying gratitude.
Today I wanted to include author Colin Harker’s quote and I love that she noted Seven Angels, the small town in Tennessee, would be a nice place to visit. I agree – once my heroine Gloria Shepherd and her friends have worked to clean up the town.
If you judged Colin by her writing, you’d think she was a horror maven and that’s certainly true. But since Colin and I became friends a couple of years ago, I’ve learned there’s a lot more to her. She’s a wonderful writer, definitely, but she’s a wonderfully engaged reader too and even though we’re not at all in the same age cohort, she has a love for some of the great books I loved growing up in the 1960s and 1970s. In particular, we’ve been bonding over Harlan Ellison, the famously talented and cantankerous author.
I got to have dinner with Colin and her sister – another hugely talented author – at Bouchercon in Nashville in 2024 and we talked about all kinds of things, maybe especially ghosts.
