Ask An Author Week #2: Terry Irene Blain

Question: If you could travel back in time for a month long vacation, which Era would you visit and why?

Terry Irene Blain: Oh, for only a month? My first thought on reading this question was the old Chinese proverb/curse ‘may you live in interesting times’. But if it’s only for a month, then I’d chose the American Revolutionary period. This is the beginning of the United State and the first definition of ‘American’. Perhaps the siege of Boston early in the conflict, or maybe be in Virginia at the time of Yorktown. I might get to meet/see one of the founding fathers. 

Kentucky Green: Journeying to her childhood home of Kentucky, April Williamson allows nothing to deter her. Certainly not Dan McKenzie who’s duty bound to escort her. Dan believes the frontier of 1794 is no place for women. But in spite of their mutual attractions, a dark secret in his past means April cannot be his.

    Who would I meet? I did an interview on the To Be Read Blog on the 13th of April http://toberead.wordpress.com

    Where I had to answer this question, but there I got three choices, but if you're going to pin me down to one, I think right now I'd choose George Washington.

    He was such an overwhelming and outstand personality, that history has tended to make him a caricature rather than a real person. I also think he was a very private person and didn't let too many people see the 'real' George.

    And besides, I always loved a man in uniform
