Spring Blog Hop - Guest Post - Author of Angry Women Suite Lee Fullbright and a giveaway.

A Kirkus Critics’ Pick, and Nominee for a Global eBook Award, The Angry Woman Suite is a new novel about something we all have in common: family.

We’re either part of one, or have been part of one—or we’ve watched (or are watching) one or more families, enthralled (enthralled, because no one watches boring families—why would they?).

And that’s me: a people watcher. I’m actually probably more of a “watcher” than even a writer, though I can’t imagine that a novelist wouldn’t be a watcher—how could that be? That an innate proclivity for creating characters and situations—noticing people and the way they walk and dress, the inflection in their voices, what they say, and often more telling, what they don’t say—wouldn’t come out of a lifelong penchant for wondering if, for instance, the sweet, mild-mannered Mrs. Davis from down the street carries her handbag clasped so tightly to her chest because she’s actually running numbers for the Mob.

Or something like that.

And I could never imagine that a novelist wouldn’t be a reader. Really, how could that happen, either?

And that’s me, too: a reader. Always been a reader. At one point—and it was a very long point in my life; actually, more like the em dash of my life—I read upwards of four books a week. And then I began reading faster than books were coming out, and so I eventually became a writer of the kind of stories I love to read. Meaty stories with elements of mystery and history and coming-of-age and a love story, and strong—very strong—characters, like the ones in The Angry Woman Suite.   

The kind of characters where you even slow down nearing a book’s end because there’s a certain someone you don’t want to leave yet—know what I mean?

I’ve been told many times (in fact, I’m starting to get a little jealous) that one of the three narrators of The Angry Woman Suite, and the only female, has pulled at more than a few heartstrings. That would be Elyse Grayson, who is apparently, as one reviewer put it, “The most engaging fictional character since ‘Bees.’”

I’ve also been asked what I want people to know about my novel. That’s easy.   

I want them to know they’ll be pulled in by three very different narrators’ stories about a celebrity double murder in the early 1900s, in Pennsylvania, and the fallout on three generations of two families.     

I want them to know, as Kirkus Reviews so succinctly put it, that The Angry Woman Suite, “a superb debut, exposes the consequences of the choices we make and legacy’s sometimes excruciating embrace.”

And who doesn’t know about family and that sometimes “excruciating embrace”? 

And I’d like them to know I’m at leefullbright.com, and that The Angry Woman Suite is available at Amazon and at Barnes and Noble websites, in softback and as an ebook—and that I hope they enjoy the read.
