WHAT CASTS THE SHADOW? by Seth Mullins: Author Interview and Giveaway

Welcome to my stop on the virtual book tour for What Casts the Shadow? by Seth Mullins, a literary fiction book available now. This post is part of a tour organized by Goddess Fish Promotions. Click on the banner to visit other stops on this tour.





An Air of Pilgrimage






1. What is your favorite television show?

Buffy the Vampire Slayer

2. What is something you’ve lied about?

There have always been a few pop bands that I’ve secretly liked though I professed, aloud, to hate them.

3. Who is the last person you hugged?

I honestly can’t remember. We had a fairly big family get-together recently…

4. What is the story of your first kiss?

I was lying on the grass holding hands with a girl I really liked. We were both in second grade. I’d been invited to her house for a playdate. We looked over at her mom’s car, which had a bumper sticker that read: Virginia is for lovers. “You want to go to Virginia?” this girl asked me with a suggestive smile. That broke the ice.

5. Do you like kissing in public?

I wish I had the chance to do so more often. (He gazes out his window, wistfully)

  1. It's a fun interview!


    1. This current tour that I've been involved with has brought me to several sites that specialize in romantic fiction, so it was nice to have an interview segment that ventures into that side of life... Thanks for visiting.

  2. What a line. It is too bad that kinda thing only works in 2nd grade =)

    1. Yes. And to this day, I STILL haven't been to Virginia :)

  3. I enjoyed the blurb and the exerpt. What casts the Shadow sounds like an awsome read. Thank you

    1. Thank you Linda :) It has definitely been a labor of love, and though I think there's a lot that's unique and special about this story, it can be a challenge to try and get that across in a brief description. I appreciate your response!

  4. I would have to lie too about liking certain rock bands.

    1. I definitely experienced this most strongly back in High School. Even though I was fortunate to go to a school that was less cliquish than many others, I still fell in with a group of metal-heads who couldn't relate to my love of performers like Elton John, John Lennon...

  5. Thank you again, Tallulah, for having me here. I enjoyed the interactions today. Kind regards :)

  6. The interview was awesome liked it a lot.

    1. I particularly liked revisiting my 'first love'. :) Thanks for stopping by. I appreciate the compliment.

  7. The blurb, excerpt, and interview was great. I am not sure about the cover, though.

    1. Well, I appreciate nailing three out four, in your eyes! Thank you. The cover is deliberately subdued, and though I knew that this wouldn't appeal to everyone it seemed appropriate for a multi-layered story that pulls you in by degrees, rather than hitting you over the head immediately.
