Featured Interview With Louise Watkiss Lucas
Tell us a little about yourself. Where were you raised? Where do you live now?
My latest book is a collection of twelve short stories.
The genre is contemporary fiction.
At the beginning of 2022, I decided to write one story each month.
Greasy Joe’s & Other Stories is the resulting book.
All the stories stem from my observation of people, current events and daily life.
However dark the story, I like to inject humour.
I use dialogue to tell the story in the majority of my writing.
At what age did you realize your fascination with books? When did you start writing?
From the age of three or four, when I first learned to read, I loved books and storytelling.
Writing with real intent only began when my children grew up, and working as an architect took a back seat.
Who are your favorite authors to read? What is your favorite genre to read. Who Inspires you in your writings?
My favourite authors are too numerous to mention in this short blurb.
Here are just a few, in no particular order.
Douglas Coupland, Laurie Graham, Charles Dickens, Thomas Hardy, Scott Fitzgerald, Iris Murdock, A. M Homes, John Irving.
The list goes on and on.
