It’s here! (Please take the time to read and comment. Thank you).

Hey Loves,

In my previous post, I introduced you guys to a phenomenal personality, Prof. Charles French. He is one of my earlier followers who actually takes the time to leave a word of encouragement on my posts and drop comments or likes.

He has really fascinating views and content on his blog charlesfrenchonwordsreadingandwriting.wordpress.com

He has remained true to his discipline as an educator I.e a college professor, meaning there is always something to learn in his post while he holds your attention. But most importantly he is someone who loves horror and is an expert on it!

From The King himself Stephen King to all the various aspects, he can hold his own.

And now ladies and gentlemen he has released his very first Book!

I give to you Prof. Charles French

Below is my interview with him.

Interview Questions

<

p style=”font-size:13.6px;”>-You, being a college professor, blogging and now a novel and how this has influenced your book.

<

p style=”font-size:13.6px;”>I have taught at college for many years—over 25—and that has certainly had an impact on my novel. I have a Ph.D. in English Literature, and Gothic and horror is one of my areas on interest. Certainly many of the ideas and themes I have examined and taught in these fields: the nature of evil, impact of the past on the present, and good vs. evil, among them have found their way into my novel. 

<

p style=”font-size:13.6px;”>I certainly enjoy blogging and the opportunity it gives to meet other people, especially those who love books and those who are writers. I am not sure that it influenced  my novel, but the blogging has allowed me to share my experiences with many other people.

<

p style=”font-size:13.6px;”>– A brief flash back also on how it all began and why a novel?

<

p style=”font-size:13.6px;”>I began writing this novel about 6 years ago. I had begun several books over the years, but I had never finished them. My wife turned to me one day and asked me why I didn’t commit to being a writer, and I did not have a good answer for her. So I did make that commitment, and after 13 drafts, I am finally releasing my book: Maledicus: The Investigative Paranormal Society Book I. 

<

p style=”font-size:13.6px;”>– Why now?

<

p style=”font-size:13.6px;”>It is time to let go of the book now. I could keep revising it forever, but there comes a time to say that it is done and to move on to the next project. I am currently writing the first draft of the next book in this series and working on revisions of a young adult novel.

<

p style=”font-size:13.6px;”>– Has this always been a dream, a bucket list or something that you walked into.

<

p style=”font-size:13.6px;”>I have always thought about being a writer, but now I am a writer. The level of success I achieve with the books is not something I can control, but I can make sure that I continue to write—the rest of my life.

<

p style=”font-size:13.6px;”>If you could introduce the book quickly, what would you say about it?

<

p style=”font-size:13.6px;”>“All that is necessary for the triumph of evil is that good men do nothing.” (Edmund Burke) 

<

p style=”font-size:13.6px;”>Roosevelt Theodore Roosevelt Franklin attempts to make it through life day by day.  Roosevelt 

<

p style=”font-size:13.6px;”>is a widower, who lost his beloved wife to cancer and a retired history professor, and he has not 

<

p style=”font-size:13.6px;”>stopped grieving.  He and his two closest friends, also retired and who have also lost loved 

<

p style=”font-size:13.6px;”>ones, form a paranormal investigation group.  They hope to find an answer to the 

<

p style=”font-size:13.6px;”>question: is there life after death? 

<

p style=”font-size:13.6px;”>When asked by a local teacher to investigate a possible haunting of her house, the group 

<

p style=”font-size:13.6px;”>discovers an evil beyond anything they could have imagined.  This is no mere ghost. Maledicus, 

<

p style=”font-size:13.6px;”>who was in life a pimp, torturer, and murderer during Caligula’s reign in Rome, in death has 

<

p style=”font-size:13.6px;”>become a sociopathic demon that attacks the weak and the innocent.  Maledicus threatens a five 

<

p style=”font-size:13.6px;”>year old child’s life and soul.  Terrified by what they have discovered, Roosevelt and his friends 

<

p style=”font-size:13.6px;”>must choose to either walk away from this threat , or to do battle with this ancient creature at the 

<

p style=”font-size:13.6px;”>potential loss of their sanities, their lives, and their souls.

<

p style=”font-size:13.6px;”>Thank you so much, Prof. Charles French for your time,

<

p style=”font-size:13.6px;”>Cheers.
