MEET THE AUTHOR
FEATURED AUTHOR: MICHAEL PRELEE
Hi Royal here! Today SBC welcomes the gifted and crafty Sci-Fi and Crime author MICHAEL PRELEE!
Hi Michael, let’s start by GETTING TO KNOW YOU. What GENRE do you write? Why?
I write science fiction infused with a crime element and mysteries set in small towns.
Can you please tell us the TITLES OF YOUR BOOKS?
My first novel is the sci-fi crime story MILKY WAY REPO. My second novel was just released and it is a small town mystery called MURDER IN THE HEART OF IT ALL.
How DID YOU START WRITING? When did you KNOW IT WAS YOUR CALLING?
I’ve always enjoyed reading and story ideas kept presenting themselves to me. I finally just started working on one and it became my first novel, MILKY WAY REPO.
Now, let’s talk ABOUT THE BOOKS. What should someone EXPECT WHEN READING MURDER IN THE HEART OF IT ALL?
MURDER IN THE HEART OF IT ALL is a character driven mystery/ suspense story. Readers can expect to hear a multitude of voices in the story, each expressing a desire for a resolution that satisfies their needs.
Michael, who is ONE OF YOUR FAVORITE CHARACTERS and why?
In this novel, the protagonist is Tim Abernathy and he is my favorite in the book. He is the reporter assigned to find whoever is writing the anonymous letters and we get to see him grow as a person as he struggles to complete his task.
Wow, I love Tim already, and I am intrigued to learn more! (Royal)
What is one thing that you would LIKE TO SAY TO YOUR READERS?
This book is a reflection of life in the American Rust Belt. This area was suffering from the effects of the Great Recession long before 2009 and this story is about someone lashing out in anger about their situation.
