Interview With Author Amelia C. Adams
& Snippet from A Broken Wing
Describe yourself in 50 words
or less.
I’m organized and yet
messy, eclectic and yet somewhat predictable, very sure of myself in some
things and totally doubtful in others, and I love chocolate, movies, and naps.
Lots of naps. And lots of chocolate.
What do you love most in the
world?
I love my
husband and children more than anything else, but that’s probably an expected
answer, so I’ll give you a little more for fun. I love the smell of baking
bread and also the smell of rain. I love rolling over and going back to sleep.
I love laughing until I cry. I also love chocolate and naps. I think I already
mentioned those, but they bear repeating.
What do you fear most?
I fear something bad
happening to one of my kids. I’m also not crazy about heights and spiders. And
if there’s a spider up high, forget it.
What is your largest
unfulfilled dream, and what are you doing to reach it?
You know what, I feel so
blessed. My dream was always to be a published author, and now I write full
time for a living. I’d say that my dreams are being fulfilled every day, and I
just need to keep on the path I’m on.
What is the hardest thing
you've ever done?
Wow. Um, answering this
question is pretty hard. Hardest physically? Giving birth was sort of
painful. J Hardest emotionally? Facing
some demons from my childhood and sitting in the feelings instead of smashing
them down.
Now that we've gotten to know each
other, tell me a story. It can be long or short. From your childhood or last
week. Funny, sad, or somewhere in between. Just make sure it's yours. What's
your story?
Well
now, there was the time when I was about five and I swallowed a plum pit. I was
absolutely certain that I was going to die. I could picture the pit sprouting
in my stomach and branches coming out of my ears. I was terrified. My parents
came home soon after and explained that pits need dirt and sunshine to grow,
and since neither of those things were in my stomach, I was fine. And you know
what, I think they were right.
Snippet from A Broken Wing
Across the aisle sat
a handsome young man with his left arm in a sling. He’d come on board at the
last stop, and he was certainly a nice change in the landscape. She’d all but
memorized the other passengers’ faces since she began her journey. Only a few of
the originals were still on the train—the rest had gotten off to be replaced by
equally tired-looking people who slid down in their seats and didn’t seem
inclined to be social.
The man’s eyes were
fixed steadfastly on the novel he held in his right hand, so she felt
comfortable studying him. His hair was dark, and a bit wavy along the neck. She
imagined it curled all over when it was freshly washed, then became straighter
as it dried. He had a small mustache on his upper lip—not one of those
overgrown things that looked like an animal had climbed up on his face to die,
but instead, it was tidy, and lent him distinction.
He wore a suit of
medium brown, and his hat, which was black, rested on the seat beside him. He
didn’t seem to be traveling with anyone, and she wondered what had brought him
on this journey. A fiancée awaiting him in Topeka? Perhaps a new job in western
Colorado? Or was he going to head south and adventure on in Wichita?
“With the liberties
you’re currently taking, madam, I believe it best if we introduce ourselves.”
She jolted at the
sound of his voice. He had lowered his novel and now looked at her with curious
brown eyes.
“I . . . I beg your
pardon? What liberties, sir?”
“You’ve been staring
at me for ten minutes at least. At first, I was flattered, but now I’m becoming
uncomfortable. Is there a spot on my tie? A wrinkle in my shirt? Tell me,
madam, so I can fix whatever it is at once.”
