Well...I'd have to say The Walking Dead and Breaking Bad on AMC are my favorites but I also like Hell On Wheels & The Killing. Okay...so they don't have much to do with Castle or Cold Case, however, they both show the extreme lengths that people will go to not only survive but become the one in charge no matter the cost.
I read reviews about your book and would really like to read it myself...and, yes, being a mother, too, the thought of a child starving to death in the US is heart breaking & makes me angry. I think you have touched on a subject that a lot of people should consider & would like to read your novel.
How anyone could think Mozart was a buffoon is beyond imagining. His talent speaks for itself. True, creative people may seem a bit quirky but whatever they need to do to help them along or let off steam can be forgiven by the rest of the general population. Mozart has always been my favorite Classical composer and it was a loss to the world that he died so young...what unbelievable talent!
I did enjoy the movie "Amadeus" and, as with all movies about famous persons, I realize that creative license is usually taken. Sounds like you've written an intriguing & well researched novel with a crime element giving the story of Mozart's death investigated by his sister a new twist. Reading of how you portray Mozart in your novel only makes me appreciate and admire the composer all the more and for that we can thank you.
I look forward to reading "Mozart's Last Aria" and hopefully winning a copy in this contest!
Coincidentally, I've had RA since I was 25 yrs. old (won't say how long ago that was...:) with 2 small boys to take care of and later on a full time job...so I understand what you are both saying.
Recently, my 88 yr. old mother was diagnosed with Dementia...so am learning about that disease and how to cope along with my mom, brother and sister.
I love cats and have 3. My first passed on a couple of years ago...so, like Steere House I replaced them with a few more.
I hope to read this book soon. Thank you both for a great and inspiring interview.
Wolves are such beautiful, nobel and loyal animals. So, if werewolves would have these qualities and those of reasoning, too, what's not to like...:> Your books are great...keep it up, Terry!
"Scary Stuff" sounds like a book I'd like to read since I can relate to the "antique picker"...I tend to be the same way...besides, I like the book cover...:> As far as your article on the recent Writing Conference you attended, I think it's great you have an author (M. Connelly) that you look up to...same as us readers! I agree with Theresa B's comment...."meeting & greeting is what fans like" and I'm always impressed how giving most writers are with their fans. Keep up the good work!
