Taryn:
Great interview and I love how your book harkens back to the traditional historical. So many writers have moved away from that and I’m hoping you’ll set a trend.
Teresa R.
Thanks for having me Hallee!
And thank you, Teresa. Castaway Hearts was truly my first foray into writing a historical and I was never one who cared about doing a lot of research into history, but it stayed with me and I actually enjoyed the research I did for it. Though I’m concentrating now on my contemporaries, I hope someday to pen a few other stories that will follow Castaway Hearts down through Catherine & Dawson’s family tree because I have a few ideas that carry down through the Civil War.
Oh, I love the sound of that! The book sounds wonderful and I hope you do write more books following their line.
Thanks so much Rachel. I would love to be able to continue it, but I know right now the research moving forward would be quite time-consuming and I’m just not yet up to the task.
I think too, I really need to be in the right place and the other characters aren’t calling to me to write their stories yet. That makes a huge difference.
A very nice interview. I love those stories which started long ago then you pick back up after you’ve grown up a little and make it even better. This is a beautiful story.
There’s a little bit of something special to the stories that stick with you through the years, isn’t there? Thanks so much for stopping by!
Like you, I don’t outline and love listening to my characters and following where they take me.
Sometimes what my characters tell me is far better than anything I could have come up with, Janie. That’s what I love about them.
