E24 - Paul Attaway - Novelist - How to build a fictional series

EPISODE 24 - Today we welcome novelist, Paul Attaway and discuss the series of fictional books that he is building and the journey he is on as an author.What It Means To Be A Southern StorytellerOn the simplest level, I define myself as a “Southern Storyteller” because my stories are either set in the South and/or involve characters that are born in the South. But there’s more to it than that. Every part of this country possesses its’ own unique charm and beauty as well as its’ own sordidness and ugliness, the South maybe more so. I hope to write stories that depict what Southerners are like and what life is like in the South and do so with compelling characters that may at times embody the good, the bad, the beautiful and the ugly. But I have hope and so it is my goal that readers, after finishing one of my stories, will put the book down filled with hope as well.

Along with his wife, Rose, the girl of his dreams he met in college, they are raising two boys, Eli and Walker. Humble but competitive, Monty is slowly but steadily building a profitable and well-respected law practice in beautiful Charleston, SC. His hard work, steeped in a deeply ingrained Protestant work ethic, is paying dividends in the form of a second home on Kiawah Island and membership in the exclusive Wappoo Country Club.Book: Eli's RedemptionAbout the book - In Eli’s Redemption, Paul Attaway writes a novel that stands on its own but also picks up where he left off, at the exciting climax of Blood in the Low Country, his debut set in Charleston, S. C. in the 1970s. Paul's Website___Living The Next Chapterpodcast created by TrueMediaSolutions.caSupport the show___https://livingthenextchapter.com/podcast produced by: https://truemediasolutions.ca/Coffee Refills are always appreciated, refill Dave's cup here, and thanks!https://buymeacoffee.com/truemediaca
