Hello everyone: ) Thank you for stopping in to check
out Secret: In Wolf Lake story-star,
Samantha Parks, a.k.a. Sam. She actually hates too much attention, so I (DK
Davis, writer of her story) took on the role of interviewer. Mostly just to get
her talking: )
DK
Davis – Okay, Sam, time to get started. Tell everyone a little about yourself –
you know, like your age and interests, things you love to do.
Sam – I’m fifteen, actually closer to sixteen. *she looks at me and I nod for her to
continue* Okay, let’s see, I love fishing, adore my chocolate Labrador,
Koko, and enjoy being at Wolf Lake. I’d rather be there than my other option.
DK
– Ahhh, yes, let’s talk about the other option…what is it and why the negative
vibes regarding it?
Sam – Mom wanted me to travel with her and Matt. Can
you imagine being the third wheel on a European honeymoon? I’d hate it. *rolls eyes*
DK
– That’s not really why you chose not to go. Give it up, be honest with us.
Sam – Fine. *big
sigh* Matt and Dad were best friends. I mean they grew up together, all
through school, like brothers. They did everything together. Now he thinks he
can move deeper into my life and replace my father!?
DK
– But why would he think that? What happened to your father?
Sam – *eyes
shine with water* Dad was killed two years ago. Hit by a druggy driving through
the school parking lot where my father taught.
DK
– So sorry for your loss, Sam. *Sam nods*
Let’s talk about something else, like what are your dislikes as a girl in
today’s world?
Sam - *smiles*
I have a hard time relating to girly-girls. My cousin, Lisa, is one of those.
All she thinks about is guys. Seriously. Well, that’s not all she thinks
about…I mean she’s always checking her hair, painting her nails, doing her
make-up, wearing clothes that…well, seem tight and revealing to me,
uncomfortable.
We used to have fun together, a few years ago…before
her every thought included a guy. Now…we pretty much can’t stand each other.
DK
– So what’s the best thing about Wolf Lake?
Sam – I’ve always loved Wolf Lake. It was where we
went for vacation when Dad was alive. I have good memories from there. Plus,
there’s something else I discovered at the lake…a secret…something I promised
not to talk about until given permission. Now, I have new memories…and
honestly, new friendships, the kind that might last forever.
DK
– Well that pretty much sews up our time today – thank you, Sam. I really
appreciate you coming along, agreeing to the interview, and sharing as much as
you have. I know some of it wasn’t easy for you.
Sam – Thanks for asking me here, DK. Even though
some of my story still hurts, I want everyone to hear my story, to know the
secret locked inside, and to love and resonate with the ending like I do: )
We hope you’ll check out Sam’s story, Secret: In Wolf Lake, a YA Sci-fi
Fantasy adventure. For now – Sam would love to answer any questions or comments
you’d like to make. Please don’t be shy…because…she’s shy, but agreed to answer
questions; )
DK Davis writes YA sci-fi, supernatural, and fantasy with a good
dollop of all the relationships woven in between. When she’s not writing,
editing, or reading, she’s hiking, RV’ing, fishing, spending time with
grandchildren or her favorite muse (her husband) in Southwest Michigan.
