Looking at the cover of Strangely Funny you might think that
knowing what’s on my character’s plate could make you ill. So, let me assure
you that I’m not writing a monster.
In A Proper Job for a Lady, Atalanta Wilde is an attractive
monster hunter with a keen fashion sense. Above all she is a lady. After all,
one doesn’t have to look or smell like a monster to catch one.
In truth, Atalanta doesn’t have a lot to eat in the story.
She is at the Wilde-Woods Inn because there is danger afoot. She believes a
monster from long ago has returned and nobody will be safe until she finishes
the work her ancestors began.
A nice cup of spiced tea and some of her cousin’s fresh
baked bread do restore her spirits after a long dangerous trip.
Cousin Constance also provides her with trail rations before
she sets out to find the monster. She doesn’t specify what those rations are,
but knowing her cousin, they will be a delightful surprise for Atalanta.
Nothing bad comes from the kitchen at Wilde Wood Inn. Tall,
stunning, Atalanta might turn every head in the room but they won’t stay turned
when Constance fills the room with the aroma of her cooking.
