Sci-fi Urban Fantasy
Date Published: 09-28-2021
The sudden death of Jenna Hess provides an ideal setting for The Dollmaker. Jeremy Dillon is captivated by CR1XY, an elite model that he can't resist. Is her creation exclusive to him, or are we merely learning about an elaborate plot? Nothing is certain in this high stakes game.
Interview with Laura Daleo
How did you
become involved with the subject or theme of your book?
A
thought just popped into my head. While the story initially focused
on horror, once the characters began to emerge, it took a completely
different direction, towards science fiction.
What were your
goals and intentions in this book, and how well do you feel you
achieved them?
My
goal was to build a highly intelligent, synthetic, human-like
android that people would believe existed. By creating Carly, I
accomplished what I set out to do. The sci-fi elements in the story
are exactly what I wanted.
What was the
hardest part of writing this book?
In
my opinion, the most challenging part of the story was making all
the computer-related parts credible.
What did you
enjoy most about writing this book?
Developing
Carly's relationship with Jeremy.
Where there
alternate endings you considered?
The
ending of the story was always clear to me.
Can you share
some stories about people you met while researching this book?
My
entire research was conducted online using internet searches.
What genre of
books do you enjoy reading?
Vampires
fascinate me. They are fantastical creatures I love reading about. I
adore Anne Rice's Vampire Chronicles series.
