Hi Angie and Monica. "Any Bitter Thing" was a great read this month. I really enjoyed it, especially the "twist" of Father M really being alive.

12:32

PressHerald.com - Thanks, Andi .. We're having a little trouble getting Monica logged on.

Monica, did you know the ending of the book when you began writing it?

12:33

PressHerald.com - While we're getting Monica set up, I'll type for her.

12:33

PressHerald.com - M says she knew nothing except that a young woman had an accident. That's all I had.

12:34

PressHerald.com - I'm curious, who is the Father Bob the book is dedicated to?

12:34

PressHerald.com - M: Father Bob is my real life priest uncle. All the good memories of Lizzy's early childhood came from my own memories of him.

Wow, that's amazing. Every little twist and turn seems so carefully planned. Great question, Angie - I wondered that, too, when I began reading the book.
