Goodreads asked Ariel O'Suilleabhain:

Where did you get the idea for your most recent book?

Ariel O'Suilleabhain In answer to one of my fan questions for this week, "Where did you get the idea for your most recent book?" The thoroughly inspirational idea for 'A Mother Society: Ginsberg Style' came about because of my passion for scholarly poetry studies through time - I wanted to translate a 'Ginsberg' (poem style) novella to others to help them understand that being a housewife does not mean you lack intelligence. In many cases much the opposite stands as factual. After all, we are more than often the ones who gave you an abundance of if not all of our ideas. How do we do it ? Come along and read the book and find out why being a common housewife is precious and not so ordinary as you may think. The ability to make the simple things of daily life a complete fantasy takes a lot of thought. For example, the real winner of the Nobel Peace Prize is the woman whose dinner for a family of twelve inspired her beloved to silence themselves and bless the food together during a meal so delicious that no one wanted to waste one good bite. During this time, peace pacts are made eternal by simple eye contact and promises made to share sweaters, notebook paper and kindness. And all they did was eat the wordless joy. That would have been my Grandmother Sarah. But are we really that much different as women today? Timeless, many of us are still that beloved housewife. 'A Mother Society' embraces the thought that comes from the eternal and at once ever refreshing mystery of how and why we women are able to soar above it all, a flight of pure intrigue that proves that our brain capacity and especially more for a housewife a valuable and universal gift from a good and brilliant God. (December).
