    About this series

    Beach Babies came to me a few years ago when I held a picture, now the cover of this book, and stared at it. Bobbie Sue Rossi isn’t a heroine, neither will she be a legend. She’s simply a woman that did what needed to be done. I understand her and identify with her in many ways. We make no excuses for our behavior or even our mistakes. But, I like to think her kind of courage will go on.

      Cry is a contrast in extremes. A young girl, living just above the poverty line, struggles with unanswered questions about her past. Running parallel to her story is the opulent and abundant life of a televangelist, who is not only well-known, she’s a woman, “God’s anointed daughter.” Two different stories — two opposite women — merging in the most unexpected place. The inspiration for this tale of Southern women came from the first line. I had written it weeks before all the characters revealed themselves. But also, with church being paramount in my life growing up (my religious roots go way deep), I wanted to explore what it would be like for a young girl who was not raised in church. The characters appeared at the oddest times, visiting my mind regularly to check on my progress. Many nights they got me out of bed to finish a scene or change their dialogue. I originally intended Janey Gay to be my protagonist . . . but in the end, Essie and Loretta convinced me that they had the most important story to tell.

      What type of person lives in Needmore, North Carolina and do they really . . . need more? A woman with little education most people would look at and call “low life” or “white trash.” Vernell struggles to make a way where there seems to be no way . . . living from paycheck to paycheck (like so many women I know), the deck is stacked against her. From the book: Southern Fried Women

      Old Time Religion is one of the stories in the award-winning book, Southern Fried Women, and previously in the anthology, Original Sin: The Seven Deadlies Come Home To Roost, under the sin category of gluttony. Described as funny, dark, and disturbing, Old Time Religion actually touches on many sins. It’ll make you think, and it may disturb you, but remember . . . it’s just a story. Isn’t it?
