Thanks so much for your questions, and so sorry for such a long-delayed response. I was born and still live in the mountains of East Tennessee. The regional dialect of BLOODROOT's characters was very much inspired by the voices I grew up hearing, of families and friends and neighbors. I'm currently working on a third novel, THE NATURE OF FIRE, also set in Appalachia. There's no official release date yet, but hopefully it will be published soon!(less)

“I'd done cleaved myself to him right yonder under the trees, kneeling over that bloodroot flower. Looking at its red root sap, I was overcome with something that felt like the Holy Ghost. I seen all the generations that would come out of me and Macon. I seen our blood mixed up together, shining there in the gloomy light.”
