Controversial!
September 24, 2012 was definitely INTERVIEW MONDAY for me!
An interview I completed weeks ago appeared on an awesome blog Rachelle's Window http://www.rachelleayala.com/2012/09/...
It was so much fun to answer these questions and work with Rachelle.
Then, at 9:30 AM, I appeared live on COMEDY THERAPY RADIO with comedian and author, Brad Tassell! http://tobtr.com/s/3681049
This was a great experience. At first I must admit I was perplexed by Brad's promo: "Brad Tassell will interview CONTROVERSIAL author Aleatha Romig". I wondered, why am I controversial? However, as we spoke and I reflected over the emotions my readers are experiencing I understood.
The experiences Claire endures in CONSEQUENCES are indeed controversial... they are horrific and should in no way be down played. As a female I think it would be unbearable. That is what makes Claire so strong! She endures!
Then the question of Stockholm Syndrome causes the reader to question Claire's motivation for some of her decisions. How would you respond? Can we really say, unless we have endured?
But, Controversial... after reading reviews and blogs, this is what I see as the most controversial part of CONSEQUENCES. It is the unbelievable emotions felt by readers...it is the feeling that after all is said and done, many still want a Happy Ever After.
Controversial? Crazy? Insane?
Some may think so. However, I believe many of us want "GOOD" to prevail. We see glimmers of good, glimmers of love, glimmers of hope, and want to believe even a glimmer of good can triumph over a platter of evil.
It is a very female trait to want to "make it better" we want to believe in hope.. in the future... in TRUTH!
Are my readers crazy? Or as one blogger wrote... are the readers sane and Tony crazy?
It goes back to CONSEQUENCES evoking overpowering emotion! If you haven't rode this roller coaster, jump aboard! If you have, tell everyone you know... because... many of your answers are coming!
TRUTH will be here in November! Let's find out who is the crazy one!
