The Author
Carol Cadoo
The work of art:
Déjà Vu of Love
Where she creates.
Cayucos California
The Genre that gets to claim her:
I think it’s Chick Lit some think romance.
The Heart Of The Story:
It is a book about that one
relationship in life we all have that is passionate incredible but
never timed out right. Many men pass through your life but only one
through your soul. This is the story of one of those relationships.
How her Muse Creates:
You know I allow the characters
to tell me the story and then I just channel it. So I actually write
the story in my head while gardening, cleaning, doing everyday
things. At some point my brain tell me okay it’s time. I then
like a fighter going into the ring battle it out with the keyboards.
Generally when I sit down to hit my “print” button in the old
noodle computer I just go. It takes about 6 days of pretty solid
locked up in the room , kids don’t knock on the door unless there
is blood or cops at the door. LOL
She wrote this and thought ; " The world has got
to see this!"
I feel that way about this book. I
just love these characters I really bonded with them. They are very
cool people. I like them, especially Patrick Abbot Jazz Kellys best
friend.
The book she read that gave her a calling:
A Tree Grows in Brookly written by
Betty Smith it changed my life in the fourth grade. I had never been
moved by someones writing. I had been moved by the story before but
never by the actually writing. I thought wow words do this to
people? I knew when I turned the last page what I was going to do.
Her Biggest Writing Nemisis:
Oh
I hate the self editing process. I don’t mind the rewrite as far
as making the book mor cohesive better flow, pacing. But boy do I
hate to cut words I spent days, weeks, months writing . So my
solution I don’t just cut I cut than I paste the work in a not this
book maybe the next one file. I have yet to use any of those cut s
but I find it easier to edit knowing the work is going into the
garbage. It is a mind thing I think.
Her characters write themselves through
her:
They write themselves using me to channel. I don’t
even remember what I write. Kind of funny as I reread I laugh , I
cry I live the story as if I have never heard a word. I have always
been a little freaked out by the whole channeling process. Denied it
for years as it is a little creepy, at the end of the day I finally
just had t o embrace the process. Now I no longer freak over it I
just think it is odd.
A peice of her goes into each character:
I always include
a secreat part of me in each character. I know but never discuss who
has what of mine.
She is in it for the long haul:
I have been a wedding planner for years. I am now a full
time writer out in my house in the middle of nowhere.
If Carol could go back in time, She's want to make the most of it:
I would love to meet Ida Lupino she
was an actress but more important she was a female director in the
Golden Age of Hollywood. I can’t even imagine how tough that chick
was.
It may not stand out from the millions but it'll sure give them a run for there money.
You know to be frank I am not sure mine would stand out
but I guarantee it would give any book out there a run for their
money. My characters are probably in my opine what most people are
attracted to. I write really good dialoge and use it to move the
story line forward versus using narrative to do that. I think that
makes my book a little different then the rest.
Carol has learned a thing or two about marketing for free.
Hard work in lieu of cash, I love the Mommy Bloggers if
you will. I mean no disrespect for this group of savy strong moms
who have become the number one resource for companies to market their
products on line. I really respect these ladies . Check out your
Mommy Blogs but learn their code of conduct cause I promise you they
have one.
