A LIFE THROUGH BOOKS INTERVIEW with Greg Jolley
“The Collectors” by Greg Jolley
January 13th,2021
What is the hardest part of writing your books?
While there are many creative challenges from the initial research to the final edits, I can honestly say it is always satisfying and rarely difficult. For “The Collectors,” my involvement with the publicist’s efforts are a little distracting, but that’s because I’m currently in the middle of a new write Read more of this blog post »

But just to be on the safe side, maybe it was best to keep pretending that one was a stuffed figure. Not to move. Never to move. Just to sit here in the tiny room, forever and ever.

Why, she wouldn't even harm a fly...”
