Being an author is an odd odd sort of avocation. You spend years and years, working in private: researching, reading, thinking, scribbling, marking through and scribbling yet again. And then, somehow, your babies are born. You often find yourself wondering: Where do they go? Have they found a good home? Or are they languishing in a used bookstore? Or, God forbid, a remainder bin, sold for 50 cents a pound. (An author's nightmare.)
To that end, if you have a copy of one of my books, send me a photo and sate my curiosity.
So much of my book takes place in Louisiana, it's nice to know that one of them will be living there. It's owned by Violet R., who lives in Avoyelles Parish, south of the old Singer Tract.
