Writing "The Confessions of Old King Coal" has been a labor of love for me. Three years ago I embarked on some family history research, focusing on a great uncle, Tommy Thompson, who emigrated to America in 1910. I knew he'd become quite successful in his little corner of America -- East Peoria -- but as I researched I unraveled the personality of the man, and the tragic relationship he shared with his wife.

It was compelling stuff. He had the golden touch when it came to business -- he made his fortune in coal in the Twenties -- but he was a man of many contradictions, all of which are explored in my novel. His wife died in tragic circumstances in the Fifties, and it was this aspect of the story that really tugged at my heartstrings.
