Welcome to My New Home
“Welcome. Please, step inside. Can I offer you something to drink maybe? Can I take your jacket?”
“Don’t mind my dog Monkeyshine; she believes all guests are here for her exclusively.”
“Did you have any trouble finding me?” “Were the directions clear enough along Internet Highway?”
“I’m so very pleased we can visit like this. I’ve been cooking all morning.”
“The table is ready on the sun porch overlooking the back garden. It’s a beautiful day and having you here for lunch makes it all the better.”
There’s nothing finer than good food, conversation and friendship. I’m looking forward to discussing “Falling Whispers.” Did you read it? I’m rather proud of how it turned out.”
“By the way, Carmen and Dora were here last week before their trip to Madrid.” “Of course in real life they were gathered and collected from several people that I know, (not in a Frankenstein sort of way) but yes, they are real to me…at least in my imagination.”
“No, I’m not crazy…they just turned up as I was listening to some music.” “I would have used the actual song “Skinny Love” in the story itself, but unfortunately I could not afford permission. So instead, I composed “Remember No Poison My Love” especially for Dora and Carmen.”
“Please, choose a seat. You’re welcome to enjoy the chair facing north; it has the best view of the creek winding through the back acre.”
“I hope you brought your appetite.” “I asked around and prepared what I understand to be your favorite meal.”
“Do you have any questions surrounding “Falling Whispers?” I bet you’re wondering if we’ll see Dora and Carmen sometime in the near future? Will there be a sequel?”
“That’s a good question. My main want for them is to have a long and happy life together, unaffected by clutter and circumstance. Who knows what challenges they may face though…things happen.”
“Right now, I've been visiting a bit with Dora’s twin sister Laura. I’m here to tell you she is a bit of a pill. I mean, in many ways her personality is very much in opposite of her sister. Where Dora is kind and thoughtful, Laura is somewhat self absorbed and demanding.”
“I must admit, by the end of a day with Laura, my nerves are shot. She is one of those people who if you say something off, she’ll attack for no apparent reason. Being in such company is draining.”
“The trick in telling Laura’s story will be to keep a fine balance so that the reader is invested in the story-line.” “Remember while we learn more about Laura, we will also better understand Dora.”
“I am really into the complexities of relationships…all relationships interest me…but what I find intriguing is simply how the people we grow up with often shapes us into being who we are throughout our lives. Either we shift and change according to new influences or we remain fixed in old patterns only seeking out those we know as familiar. Does a person grow or do they remain stagnant?”
“As you can see there is a lot to consider.”
“While I serve lunch, maybe you could tell me a bit about yourself.”
“I’m very glad that we decided to do this and I hope you’ll enjoy your time here, enough to make stopping by a regular plan each week.”
