Mike:
Hi, Carol . I’m happy to have yet another Association of
Rhode Island Author (ARIA) to introduce to my Overlords fan base. As with the others, we’re going to do an old fashioned
interview. Here we go!
Carol: Carol Desforges, is a
retired science teacher who is constantly on the go: participating in community
volunteering, writing family sagas, golfing, teaching Mah Jongg, running Mah
Jongg Tournaments, attending book tours, and managing family commitments.
Though she was born in New York, Rhode Island has been her home since 1967 when
she attended the University of RI. She currently lives in North Providence on a
golf course, her unit is on the first hole.
Mike: What
are you working on these days and what’s the current status of that project?
Carol: I am currently writing my third novel in a series about the
dysfunctional Shugrinsky family. This novel will incorporate fantasy.
Mike:
Can
you tell the audience what inspires you to write?
Carol: I began a story to help a 23-year-old girl learn what is means
to come to a resolution with a dysfunctional parent. The story grew and grew
until it became a novel. I became hooked on the story of a dysfunctional
family.
Mike:
What
genre do you enjoy writing the most?
Carol: Family Sagas.
Carol: Don’t have a name for the third novel dealing the Shugrinsky
family.
Mike:
OK, time for some quick ones, ready? Favorite movie?
Carol: Being There and the Sleeper.
Mike:
Favorite food or dish to make?
Carol: My adopted children find that my version of American Chop Suey
and Chicken Matzah Ball Soup are the comfort foods they remember fondly. I
became excited about cooking when I learned to make pie crust and other
desserts in a course at Johnson and Wales. Prior to that, my desserts were
disasters. My strawberry shortcake was more like a hockey puck than an edible
biscuit.
Mike:
Favorite place you have ever visited?
Carol: Mountains in Western USA.
Mike: Favorite music band?
Carol: Boston Pops.
Mike: Favorite book, and no it can’t be one of
yours!
Carol: Most dramas that evoke strong emotional responses.
Mike: Carol,
thanks for being such a good sport! Is
there anything you would like to leave my fans with?
