I did have a question. In the acknowledgments, you mentioned that The Current was based off a short story you wrote called "Water." I have written many short stories and I am fascinated with the process of turning a short story into a novel. Do you have a link to the story you can send? Thanks
Tim Johnston
Hi, Rebecca. The only link to that one is here: http://givalpress.com/index.cfm?rsn=2...
Hope that helps!
Cheers,
Tim

I don't have a question. I just wanted to tell you how much I love "The Current." I just read it for the second the time (the 1st time was about 2 years ago). Thank you for writing such a beautiful novel! I'm not sure how to articulate this other to say that you characters are so real and you manage to convey heart wrenching events, and life experiences, with very clear, moving, and uncomplicated language. How?

Tim Johnston:
Thanks so much for writing DESCENT, Tim!!! It was one of my favorite reads of the year, and one of the best mystery/thrillers I have ever read. The book reminded of both THE COLLECTOR by John Fowles, and INTENSITY by Dean Koontz. Can't wait to read your next book... Just wondering if you grew up in Iowa?

Dear Tim Johnston, I'm halfway through "Descent" and am totally hooked--I will probably finish it in another day or so. The sense of place and setting is so strong. To me, it feels as though the Rockies are a character in this story. They seem so menacing, constantly looming over everything... My question is, what inspired this setting choice? Did you live in Colorado or visit this area before writing the book?
