Watch My TALK OF ALABAMA interview on The Blanchard Witches


 I was so nervous for my first interview about the book series, but everyone at Talk of Alabama was so wonderful and made me feel very comfortable.  Host Stoney Sharp was amazing and put me right at ease.  I had a really fun time on the show.  I hope to go back when the second book debuts in September.

Who is My Favorite Character in the Blanchard Series?

Image
I've been asked a few time who my favorite character is in the world of the Blanchards.  That is too difficult an answer to give for several reasons.  I could say that since I created everyone, its hard to choose a favorite.  But that isn't actually true.  Primarily, its difficult to pick because each book has multiple storylines different from its preceding book.  Some characters are more in the foreground in certain volumes and not in others.  And, (spoiler alert) not everyone stays alive through the course of the series.  For this reason, and since right now only the first book is on the shelves, I will speak only of Volume One  THE BLANCHARD WITCHES OF DAIHMLER COUNTY.

  Massachusetts lawmakers formally exonerated Elizabeth Johnson Jr., who was accused of being a witch in 1693 at the height of the Salem Witch Trials.  It only took 329 years to clear her name, but it was officially handled in May of this year.

She never married, although she did come close once in her youth when she was dating Howard Caldwell.  Olympia was against the marriage, not because she didn't care for Howard, but because Artemis had not learned to control her powers and was often perilous to be around.  She is a secret smoker and thinks no one knows. Her dream in youth was to be a renowned chef, but her powers made that dream die early.  Now she finds joy in taking care of the family and being the cook for the household where she creates amazing dishes for her family every day.
