Interview and Book Excerpt at the Colorado Sun

October 6, 2018 By: Patricia

Colorado Humanities has teamed with the Colorado Sun to spotlight this year’s Colorado Book Awards winners and finalists in the digital paper’s weekend SunLit feature. This weekend was my turn.

The excerpt I selected from Wishing Caswell Dead is the chapter where Jo Mae Proud is introduced. There’s also an interview where I responded to questions about the book, research, and what’s next.

I’m deep into revisions of a new Village of Sangamon novel, which is one of the reasons I haven’t posted much to this blog. I’ll be back soon.

      Thanks, Alex, and thanks for helping spread the word on social media. It’s super when these surprise promo opportunities pop up.

Meet Patricia

I read, I write, I blog, and sometimes I do the laundry and cook. My 2014 novel, Dead Wrong, was a finalist in the thriller category of the 2015 Colorado Book Awards. Wishing Caswell Dead (Five Star/Cengage, December 20, 2017) is a historical mystery set in 1830s Illinois in the fictitious Village of Sangamon. The novel was a finalist for the 2018 Colorado Book Awards for General Fiction. My most recent release, In Defense of Delia (Five Star/Cengage, November 2022), is available in hardcover and will soon be available in ebook and trade paperback. Read More…
