Recently I had the honor to meet an old friend and writer, AJ Elmore. AJ grew up in West Virginia on the Kanawha County-Clay County borders, and she graduated from Marshall University with a degree in journalism. However, time and place separated us.
As those who know me, I am a reader. One of the better books I read in April was The Nameless by AJ Elmore. I loved the story! But, it wasn’t my typical read: not non-fiction, not a mystery, not historical fiction, not poetry, nor even a romance. It was a fantasy. As I read the first chapters, I could see myself “being there” in the setting, experiencing what was happening. (Imagine! A 70-year-old grandma at a punk concert and then drinking in a bar afterward! WHOO! The descriptions were that good!) The storyline lured me in, and I made time to read more.
However, it was a fantasy. But I loved it! It was one of my Top 5 books for 2024. I will read another AJ Elmore story in May.
AJ graciously agreed to an interview.
