Martin, how did you come up with the title for your book? Does it have any special meaning?
I wanted to do something specifically for Christmas and include that in the title. At the time I had no idea that readers enjoy Christmas stories all year round. That’s been a nice surprise.
Who was your favorite character and why?
Billy. No question. He offered something that none of the other characters did. And, several readers asked what becomes of him. So…
“Believing Again Book Two: A Tale Of Two Valentines” is in the works, and it will tell the rest of Billy’s story.
Does your book have any underlying theme, message, or moral?
Resilience. I think you reach a certain age and experience a certain amount of relationships, either friendships or intimate relationships, and you have to decide whether you’re going to believe again. This book is about believing again in spite of all obstacles and disappointments.
What would/could a reader or reviewer say about this book that shows they “get” you as an author?
This review made me smile:
“This is a story that will piss you off, make you cry, and make you laugh. Mostly it shows that all things, good and bad, small and large, all happen for a reason.”
That’s what I’m trying to do.
