"Slow Drip" by Gary Polisano. Interview with Gary Polisano by Jason E. Foss


                                                                                    GARY POLISANO

                                "Great Authors leave a lasting impression on the Reader.  They make you think throughout the book never really knowing what's going to happen next thrilling us with the element of surprise.  Their books stand out.  Their plot keeps you glued to the pages.  And when you are done Reading their book you don't say 'I just read this interesting book but I'm having a hard time remembering who wrote it'.  No, you remember the name of the book Title and the name of the Author.  Gary Polisano is one of these Great Authors.  He was nice enough to let us know what motivates him."



Jason:                        "What motivated you to write "Slow Drip"?"


Gary:

                                   "I'm a big fan of detective mysteries and thriller mysteries, especially Michael Connelly and Ken Follett.  Always wanted to write a book and now that I am partially retired, I have the time to do it.  My goal was to write the book and leave it be, just satisfied that I had accomplished something that always interested me.  However, as friends and family asked to read the manuscript, they all seemed to be highly impressed with the plot, story-line and characters.  Their encouragement has motivated me to continue on and pursue the "series" with a renewed vigor and passion."



Jason:                       "Which character do you admire the most and why?"


Gary:

                                   "That would be the protagonist and lead character, Tina Patterson, a detective that excels even under adversity.  She however, is flawed (like all of us), but in a way that both helps her and hurts her.  She is truly an overachiever and is often underestimated even by those that trust her.  In the end, (and in the case of Slow Drip), with a bit of help, she comes out on top."


Jason:                        "For your fans and book lovers briefly describe "Slow Drip"."


Gary:

                                   "There are really two stories told in Slow Drip (a title that describes the character and method of the killer) .  The under-story is about a high school baseball star with the dreams of playing in the "bigs" some day.  He gets hit in the head with the baseball during a game and is rushed to emergency.  Days later, he finds the body of the third victim of a serial killer that is on the loose.  Events cause his life to get turned upside down, school work, a budding love affair, the relationship with his parents and most importantly for him, his baseball ability diminished rapidly.  He hold some keys to the murders that stem from his discovery.  The primary story focuses on the rampage of the serial killer and how he selects, plans and plots his next victim(s).  He is meticulous in his planning and execution of each murder - but something goes wrong, forcing him to act on impulse.  The murderer is skilled and brilliant and he kills his victims in a particular sick manner while leaving intentional clues for the police, that emboldens him in a unique way.  Tina Patterson is the detective that chases the murderer while under pressure to bring him quickly to justice, all the while having her ability as a police detective questioned by her commanding officer.  However, the reader learns that Tina possesses an extra tool in her crime solving arsenal, that of a sixth-sense ... one of intuition.  She relies on her gut feelings often in her decision making and more times than not, they pay off.  Eventually, the teenage baseballer and Detective Patterson help each other, in more ways than one!"


Jason:                      "Are you working on another book and if so what can you tell us about it?"


Gary:

                                "The second in the series, yet to be titled, picks up the very next day that Slow Drip ends.  Readers will understand why as they get to the final chapter of Slow Drip.  The focus again is on Tina Patterson and her ability to solve a new set of murders and related crimes.  There is also a key, loose end. from Slow Drip that needs closure, and again, it will become obvious to readers early on, in the new book."

                                                                               

Jason:                     "For those that want to read your book what is the easiest way to buy "Slow Drip"?"


Gary:

                                "Slow Drip is available through Amazon both as an e-book for $1.99 and paperback at $7.99.  It is also available in e-book format through Google Play, Apple Books, Barnes & Noble, Kobo,  Scribd, Odilo, Bookmate and 24Symbols."

                                                                                                 CLOSING

                                  The encouragement of Gary Polisano's family that motivated him to continue the "series" with even more passion than before.  My favorite thing about Gary was the fact that he is a fan of Detective and Thriller mysteries.  When you are a fan of something or someone that shows that one has the ability to show appreciation.  By recognizing how great someone's work is will reflect in your own work.  His Friends and Family saw something in his talent for writing instantly and thankfully Great books were created because of it.  What motivates us in life is just the beginning of the Journey.  Gary Polisano used that motivation to create unique stories.  He has a lot of fans and Great reviews from Satisfied Readers.  He not only writes for his love of Thriller Mysteries but he also writes for each and every person that picks up his books.  Click on the link above and buy "Slow Drip".
