Now available from Solstice Publishing is the thriller Scooter Nation, book two in the Unapologetic Lives series, by author A.B. Funkhauser.
The author has taken a few minutes out of her busy schedule for a Q&A about her novel.
When did you become interested in storytelling?
When I was seven years old, I found an unused ledger book in the crawl space. Green, hardcover, with clean ruled pages on one side, and blank white pages for illustrations on the other, it made good sense to me to write my own children’s book and draw the pictures too! I filled it with short stories printed neatly in pencil. The only story title I remember is “Fish Head the Cat.”
What was your first book/story published?
I published HEUER LOST AND FOUND through Solstice Publishing in 2015. It took a long time to write, but it was worth it. Heuer taught me how to write.
What inspired you to write Scooter Nation?
I’m a licensed funeral director, and so after I explored the concept of “what happens after we die” in Heuer, I took it back to earth and asked, “what happens when your life and everything you know about it is turned upside down?” in Scooter.
What characters in Scooter Nation are the most/least like you, and in what ways?
