Or you may
have finished writing one book and you’re ready to start another. I’m in those
shoes. It’s time to start a new novel.
The process
of writing Abi of Cyrene challenged
me to grow as a person and to spend hours researching. I immersed my brain and
my soul in a time two thousand years ago.
Even
before I finished editing Abi,
something new consumed my thoughts. It’s a personal story about some things
- · 55 years ago and
- · 155 years ago.
I can’t
get it out of my mind. Not it . . . them. It’s two stories that mesh into one. Both
communicate the same idea. Both happen in the same area. Telling a novel of two
stories in two time periods is new for me.
This novel
is important. Every novel I write is important to me, and I want it to be
important to you.
I suspect
you have some stories in your head too, and I’d love to read them.
Also if
you’ve had experience with this kind of novel, please drop me a note on
Facebook either on my timeline or as a message. On Facebook as with most of my
books, I sign as Mary Lou Cheatham.
