Welcome to Fliterary! We love
making new friends.
Let’s sit together on the swings
and you can introduce yourself:
You have a new book out, what’s it about?
My newest release is Flora’s
Wish, book 1 of the Secret Lives of Will Tucker series from Harvest House
Here’s what Publisher’s Weekly said about Flora’s Wish:
“Fans of post-Civil War stories set in the South will find much
to enjoy in Y’Barbo’s first in the Secret Lives of Will Tucker series. “Fatal
Flora,” called such because of the deaths of four of her fiancés, is eager to
marry Will Tucker when she meets up with him in Eureka Springs, Ark. Instead
she discovers Lucas McMinn, a Pinkerton agent also searching for Tucker. Their
initial meeting results in Flora Brimm of the Natchez Brimms in handcuffs and
trying to explain to her proper and formidable grandmother what’s going on.
Flora and Lucas seem destined to work together on the case, with Lucas vowing
Tucker is guilty and Flora saying he isn’t. As they get to know each other,
Lucas discovers Flora is more than a spoiled Southern belle and she discovers
Lucas is more than a stubborn Pinkerton. But will Flora marry Tucker to save
her inheritance? Historical romance fans will adore this charming story.”
Where can we buy it?
If we invited your main character to sit with us, how would she/he
react?
Pinkterton Lucas McMinn would
probably be impatient. He’s not the type to sit and chat. Flora Brimm, however,
is the consummate Natchez belle and would not only be polite but would likely
offer to pour tea.
What would they say? What advice would they give?
Flora would tell you that getting
ahead of God is a dangerous thing to do. Lucas, however, would say that no
matter how good revenge feels, it’s neither our place nor a good idea to make
the attempt.
If any one person from history could sit with us, who would it be and
why?
I could name dozens of people, so
this is a tough one. What about Vincent Van Gough? I love his work and would
really be interested in a conversation with him.
Why did you choose to be a Christian writer and what does it mean to you?
Becoming a Christian was a
process for me. I was in church for years before I was challenged to take my
relationship with Jesus to a deeper level. Before I had a religion, now I have
a relationship with Jesus. Big difference.
What advice do you have for aspiring authors?
Write. Often. Edit. Write more.
Repeat!
