The Romantic Side of Suspense podcast

Why Linda J. White Likes Virginia as a Story Setting (Episode 88)

1 , ,

On this episode of “The Romantic Side of Suspense,” I’m talking with Linda J. White, the author of multiple award-winning mystery/suspense books, including the HOLT Medallion-winning Seeds of Evidence, Selah finalist The Fear That Chases Me, and HOLT double-finalist, When Evil Finds Us. Her husband was a video producer/director at the FBI Academy for nearly three decades. She lives in Yorktown, Va., with her current canine buddy, Keira.

“All of my books are set in the mid-Atlantic, mostly in Virginia,” Linda says. “I know the weather and knows how the weather moves across the state. … I like the mountains and I like the beach. It’s got everything I need as far as setting is concerned.”

The Farm Life Inspires Elle E. Kay’s Work (Episode 85)

0 , ,

On this episode of “The Romantic Side of Suspense,” I’m talking with Elle E. Kay, who lives on a hobby farm in Central Pennsylvania with her husband, three dogs, and many farm animals. She’s a born-again, Bible-believing Christian who keeps perennial gardens and enjoys the wildflowers strewn about her property. The wildlife who visit the property are a joy for her, but nothing beats the excitement of a kid being born to one of her many goats. Shadowing Stella was Elle’s debut novel. Elle also wrote for the multi-author Lawkeeper series and has released three contemporary romances with a suspense/mystery thread in that series. She also released four historical romances. The Billionaire’s Reluctant Bride was her first book in the multi-author Blushing Brides series. She recently published a book for another multi-author series, The Heroes of Freedom Ridge. Elle is also working on a romantic suspense novel with ties to the Rattlesnake Roundup in Noxen, Pa. She writes children’s books under the pen name, Ellie Mae Kay.

“Starting with my debut, I’ve put a couple of farms scenes in my book,” Elle says. “[My farm and its animals] are in my books a lot. … [To write,] I sit on my screened porch in fall, spring and summer because I can look out over the acres and enjoy the animals. That’s my favorite go-to place to write. In the winter, … I usually sit on my couch to write.”
