WIP Les-isms
So for those who actually read (and liked) my book… Yes I’m working on SOL number two. No it’s not done… I thought I share some of my favorite “Les-isms” to date… I don’t know how many of these will make it to the final copy, but they were a lot of fun to write….

Writing as E.V. Iverson Dead Dwight: a dark comedy
Dwight has problems… He found himself wandering barefoot on the Picks Crossing Bridge with no recollection of how he got there. Now he can’t find his truck. What good is a junkman without a truck? Then when he got his barefooted ass home, his barfly, karaoke killing girlfriend informed him she’d had him zombiefied, and…
The Dead Don’t Eat, They Rot… When a short story out grows its britches.
My soon to be published novella grew from the short story below. I wrote it never intending for it to be published, I just needed another item fill up a student portfolio and get a grade. This is why I’m always telling my kids to save all their work no matter how unimportant it might…

Appalachian Mountain Talk
Appalachian Mountain Talk Even though I go back to visit in Hendersonville every time I’m back east, I still researched the area my current project is set in. It’s easy to take for granted the things we say and do just because they’re familiar; because every one around us says and does it the same…
Appalachian Culture
My upcoming novella, Dead Dwight: a dark comedy, takes place in North Carolina’s rural Appalachia, an area near and dear to my heart, in the fictional town of Coalhaven. I grew up about 100 miles east of Hendersonville NC, and was introduced to the area by a gentleman my husband met while serving in the…
