Today you have the honor and privledge of meeting the Brothers Washborn. Andy and Berk. Supposedly Andy is below in the green shirt, and Berk is in blue. But who knows? I mean really, they could say whatever they wanted to, right?
So the Brothers Washborn have agreed to a quick interview. Below are there answers to my (as usual) bizarre questions.
<> If you could eat anything for
breakfast, what would it be?
Both
Andy & Berk: Hotcakes (buttermilk), Bacon (crispy) and two eggs
over-easy, with a tall glass of ice-cold grapefruit juice.
<> Do you prefer leather or
cloth seats in cars? Why?
Both Andy &
Berk: Cloth, because it does not get too hot or too cold.
<> If you could travel anywhere
in the world, where would you go?
Andy: One of two
places. Anywhere or to bed.
Berk: An isolated
South Pacific Island.
<> What is the most interesting job you've ever had to this
point?
Andy: Repossessing
cars.
Berk: Organizing finance subsidiaries in foreign countries.
<> Tell us about a strange
writing habit that you have.
Andy: I
occasionally yell random things at the dog while I am writing.
Berk: I
occasionally have to stop writing to go eat fast food.
<> What is your favorite quote/saying about writing? What does
it mean to you?
a. It is better than working for a living. b. If it’s fun, it’s
not work.
<> What scene of this novel
proved to be the most difficult for you to write?
Where one main
character, Cal, buries his dog after it was killed saving
Cal’s
life.
<> What scene turned out exactly
as you imagined it?
As far as we can
tell, each scene turns out like we imagine it. We just don’t know
for sure how the reader imagines it.
<> What aspect of your life has most influenced your writing?
Reading and
daydreaming.
<> Why should people read your book? What does it have to
offer them?
If you like
interesting characters in a scary story, something to get your heart
beating, then you should read this book. (And the monsters are
awesome.)
<> If you could write a spin-off
novel about a side character, who would you choose?
FBI Special Agent
Linda Allen
<> Tell us why you love this story.
We love the mystery
and suspense, the scariness and the characters who have taken on
lives of their own.
If' you're into scary stories, this book is for you!
The mansion is, admittedly, the only notable addition to Trona, but it's something everyone tries to avoid due to its creepy facade. Everyone except for Camm Smith, who is obsessed with the need to get inside.
Seven years earlier, as Camm herded a pack of little trick-or-treaters past the mansion, her young neighbor, Hugh, disappeared, becoming just one of many children who have vanished from Trona over the years without a trace. Now a senior in high school, Camm is still haunted by the old tragedy and is sure the answer to the mysterious disappearances lies hidden somewhere in the decaying mansion. Joining forces with her best friend, Cal, who also happens to be Hugh's older brother, Camm naively begins a perilous search for the truth.
As things spiral quickly out of control, and others die, Camm and Cal discover it will take all their combined ingenuity to stay alive. An unseen creature, lurking deep within the bowels of the mansion, seems to have supernatural powers and is now hunting them. Making matters worse, they become entangled with hostile federal agents, who care only about keeping old secrets permanently hidden. Left with only their wit and seemingly ineffective firearms, they know they are running out of time. Unless they can make sense out of the few pieces of the puzzle they manage to unearth, the monster will certainly destroy them, and like so many others before them, they will be gone without a trace.
