Today
I introduce you to Toi Thomas, author of Eternal
Curse: Giovanni’s Angel, a fantasy novel with a spiritual twist to it.
A
self-proclaimed techie and foodie, Toi Thomas was born in Texas, but considers
Virginia to be home. Growing up in Dallas, Toi had a strong interest in reading
fiction and loved to watch movies. Even today, many of Toi’s friends come to
her for the answers to movie trivia. Working with computers and cooking lavish
meals have become reoccurring pastimes for the Virginia Beach teacher’s
assistant, but now Toi wants to entertain the world with the first installment
of her new books series. She’s thrilled to take the world on a journey to
discover the secrets of the Eternal Curse.
Eternal Curse:
Giovanni’s Angel Synopsis
A
wealthy doctor in search of a purpose and an isolated outcast searching for
acceptance, meet online and discover that they may be just what the other has
been looking for. Mira’s a woman who believes in what she knows and Giovanni’s
a man who knows better than to think he truly knows anything. When Mira decides
to meet Giovanni face to face, for the first time, at his secluded country
home, their journey truly begins. Will the doctor and the outcast be able to
stand strong against all the powers of heaven and hell to pursue their ultimate
purpose?
How did this book come
about?
Toi’s first book started as notes taken on a reoccurring dream. There’s so much she doesn’t remember of the dreams, but once she started taking notes, a story began to develop. She wrote to keep her mind off anything or everything that was troubling her at the time. It worked and Toi ended up with her first book.
Why self-publish?
For
Toi, self-publishing was a second thought after having little results from the
traditional process of publishing, but she thinks self-publishing may actually
be harder. Ultimately, whatever the future holds be it success or failure, she
is in control of it all and loves it.

DeleteNice to hear abut others' success whether it be self pub or traditional. Good luck with the book, Toi! And thanks Denise for spotlighting other authors.
ReplyDeleteThe premise of Toi's book sounds promising. I've often considered trying to mine my dreams for writing material, but so far haven't made the attempt. I hope she was good luck with her series.
