Interview with Terri Greening, Author of The Last One to Die

What’s the story behind the story? What inspired you to write The Last One To Die?

I wanted to write a story with an unreliable narrator, like Faron Chevalier, who tells the story from her own point of view, which sometimes differs from the perspectives of others in an unsettling way. Faron’s demeanor is vulnerable but also mysterious, making her enigmatic and difficult to figure out.

What’s your favorite genre to read? Is it the same as your favorite genre to write?

I like to read mysteries and thrillers, and I also enjoy writing them.

What books are on your TBR pile right now?

Under the Sea-Wind by Rachel Carson.

What scene in your book was your favorite to write?

My favorite scene to write was the one around the campfire at night, with noises coming from the bog and the woods.

Do you have any quirky writing habits? (lucky mugs, cats on laps, etc.)

I like a quiet atmosphere where I can write for a few hours without interruption.

If you could choose one thing for readers to remember after reading your book, what would it be?

I think I would like readers to take away the idea that reality could be subjective.
