Reel Time (A Writer’s Real Reveal)
I was reelin', reelin' and a rockin'
I was reelin' and a rockin'
Rollin' till the break of dawn
(Lyrics from the song, “Reelin’ and Rockin’” sung by Chuck Berry, appearing on the album, 'One Dozen Berrys' -1958)
Rounding the bend of an 8 yr.—more like, 9 yr. - journey from conception to completion of 'An Enlightening Quiche,' my upcoming novel in the genre of Women’s Fiction, I discovered I have plenty of time on my hands for reelin’ and rockin’ while awaiting the 2nd eProof from my publisher.
So, one day this week I rocked & reeled I till the break of dawn for the purpose of making a pre-pub, promo book trailer.
Anxious as to whether I could pull off this creative endeavor, inspired by kindred authors I’ve befriended at Goodreads and Facebook, I uploaded Movie-Maker and navigated from my desk, sitting up tall in my imaginary producer-director seat.
Tentative at first while acclimating myself to the movie-making process, I got into the spirit of things and enjoyed myself in the wee small hours of the morn selecting royalty-free music from You Tube’s audio library, importing photos, and adding captions to each one to convey matters pertaining to the book. Play. Tweak. Replay. Tweak. Replay. Replay. Gloat.
Milking my “Pre-Pub Sneak-Peek” for all it’s worth at Authors Den, Facebook, Goodreads, LinkedIn, and Google, I’m hoping to whet the appetite of potential readers to acquire either a Print copy or eBook version of the novel when both are available worldwide on the Internet.
While I intend to promote my upcoming novel through other creative and engaging ways during the countdown to its launch, right now it’s “reel time” for you to get a glimpse of 'An Enlightening Quiche':
Taking place in Beauchemins, a French-Canadian mill community of northern Rhode Island’s Blackstone Valley, the story unfolds through alternating first-person narratives from the perspective of two women over forty, different as night and day, who rarely see eye-to-eye:
Augusta Bergeron - the town siren who engages in morally destructive behavior she attributes to maternal abandonment until she eggs-humes her mother’s quiche recipe.
Lindsay Metcalfe - the prim and proper historian-in-residence hailing from Boston who sets out to preserve the legacy of an impoverished mill, but gets more than she bargains for during the process.
