When I downloaded The Beauty Thief over a year ago, little did I know the author, Rachael Ritchey, is local (to me), or that she would be a featured speaker at my writer’s group meeting. When I realized who she was, and which book of hers was still gracing my e-reader I knew this interview had to happen.

We spent a quick hour sipping coffee in a noisy Starbucks. Being the busy mom that she is, it was the only time she had, and boy am I glad she agreed to meet me. Her books are a blend of fantasy fiction, good family values, and swashbuckling adventure.

            1. Hey, Roger! Did you ever get that email I sent you back at the end of September about the ASF short story edits/revisions? I’m at the point where I’m going to compile stories, and I can’t find an email or anything where you might have sent me that stuff. Sorry for not reaching out again sooner. Things have been plugging along at a fast pace lately! 🙂

            2. Sorry Rachael that didn’t reach me. Could you send it again?

              I’m working may through the editing and the comments (9.00 pm over here and been a busy day).
              I’m basically in line here with your helpful comments and the editing (My syntax is my own worse enemy….you should see it before even I edit 😃!)
              I’ll be getting back to you tomorrow. Thanks so much for the opportunity.😃
              All the best
              Roger
