About†Nancy Widrew
INTERVIEW WITH NANCY WIDREW
1. What’s your inspiration for writing SOMETHING DOWN THERE?
My inspiration was based on an actual spelunking adventure in West Virginia. I really felt doomed in that underground pit, certain I’d never get back up. Fortunately, everything worked out well; still that scary image lingered, and years later I let my imagination run wild.
2. Please share a fun behind the scenes fact or experience while researching or writing this book.
I surprised myself by how terrible I made some of the characters. Here’s a tiny spoiler: one of the villains gleefully kicks a good guy to make sure he’s dead—something, of course, I’d never do. Apparently I have a dark side, squirreled away.
3. What is it about writing a psychological thriller that draws you?
Books that have a sense of reality—where you can imagine a particular abomination happening to you—are much scarier than anything with monsters or excessive gore.
4. Which scene in the book leaves the deepest impression on you? Why?
The ending: since I focused on the notions of sacrifice, love, and courage, I actually found myself tearing up.
5. What’s up next for you? (like, if you have another book in the works or something)
I just finished a short story. They’re fun to write because you get immediate gratification. I also have a memoir in the works and I may write a sequel to SOMETHING DOWN THERE, even though it’s a book unto itself. (My sister wants to know what happens next.)
