The Deviant looks like an exciting story. Can you tell us a little about it?
The Deviant is this wild
tale of sex abuse in the workplace. The difference is, the woman is the abuser.
She’s rich, powerful and well connected. But there is something very wrong with
this woman, whose name is Jayne. She gets a thrill from debasing the young
ambitious men who work for her.
Any plans to turn it into a
series?
It’s an interesting idea
that I haven’t really explored. I think it might be fun
How long did it take you to write
The Deviant?
Some of it is autobiographical,
so it went pretty quickly, about three months.
That’s an amazing cover. Can you tell us a little about it?
Thanks so much. The story is set
in Washington, D.C., during the crack-murder years. The woman pictured is a
fictionalized version and a composite of people I have worked with. Although no
one I have ever worked with was a sex abuser.
What inspired you when writing The Deviant?
The Deviant began as a dare. My
daughter said I bet you can’t write the Harvey Weinstein saga from the opposite
view. I sat down and in three months had it all finished.
Can you tell us a little about
the main character in the book?
The protagonist is named Eric Berger,
a reporter for a big Washington, D.C., newspaper. He’s driven to expose
corruption and slime at any level. It’s what drives him. The antagonist is the
editor-in-chief of the paper. She offers him the best beats at the paper and
other avenues to fame if he’ll comply with her sexual demands.
Did anything stick out as particularly challenging when writing The Deviant?
The Deviant
was the easiest and by far the most fun I’ve ever had writing a book or
anything else. It was not at all difficult.
What do you like to do when not
writing?
I am a dedicated beach bum. I hike and swim and fish when I can.
