Ali: <\/strong>Describe your writing style in three words. 
Pam:<\/strong> Immersive, contextual storytelling<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

Ali: <\/strong>What is the last book you read?
Pam: <\/strong>Where the Crawdads Sing <\/em>by Delia Owens<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ali: <\/strong>What genre is Moon Water? 
Pam:<\/strong> Historical Fiction (Story takes place in 1969)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ali: <\/strong>Who are your main characters?
Pam:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u00b7     The protagonist is Nettie<\/strong>, a sixteen-year-old during a summer of discontent. She\u2019s reeling from sucker punches coming from all directions. Her boyfriend since grade school wants to break up just as they were beginning to figure out the sex thing, her life-long nemesis is jabbing her with perfectly polished nails, and her hellfire and brimstone preacher refuses to baptize her. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u00b7     Win <\/strong>is Nettie\u2019s best friend and a full-blooded Monacan Indian. She is the understudy to her grandmother, Nibi<\/strong>, who is a Monacan medicine woman and seer. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ali: <\/strong>What is the quest you’ve posed for your characters to complete?
Pam:<\/strong> Nibi gives Nettie and Win a cryptic message about a coming darkness: a blood moon whose veiled danger threatens Nettie and those she loves. To survive, Nettie and Win must build a mysterious dreamcatcher\u2013one that requires them to scour the perilous mountains for Nature\u2019s ancient but perfect elements.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ali: <\/strong>Is there a character you most enjoyed writing and why?
Pam:<\/strong> Creating the character of Nibi was the most enjoyable. She a Monacan medicine woman who sees the unseen and knows the unknown. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ali: <\/strong>What should readers know about your book? <\/strong>
Pam:<\/strong> As historical fiction, it has a core of truth wrapped in fiction. It is also embedded with the lessons that many sixteen-year-olds never experience.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ali: <\/strong>Give a shout out or acknowledgement to the person or persons who helped you bring this book to life. <\/strong>
Pam:<\/strong> The model for the character of Nibi was Victoria Last Walker Ferguson<\/strong>, a real-life Monacan, who is the Monacan Life Interpreter at the Monacan Village at Natural Bridge, Virginia. She is as close to a real Native American medicine woman as I would ever hope to find. Her wisdom blew me away.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
