Interview with Rasheedah Prioleau

The Blog Tour for Everlasting: Da Eb’Bulastin (Sa’Fyre Island Series Book 1) has stopped at Lngibson.com, and I am excited to interview fellow speculative fiction author, Rasheedah Prioleau.

The book, Everlasting: Da Eb’Bulastin, is a page-turner—filled with excellent prose and the trill of suspense and horror. The main setting is the Gullah Islands, which is an enigmatic character within itself. Prioleau spins an unforgettable story of suspense, secret family dynamics, vexing cultural obligations, and pure horror.

  1. What was your inspiration for writing Everlasting: Da Eb’Bulastin?

 

I always wanted to write a story that encompassed the Gullah culture. I’d just finished releasing my first novel, and quite frankly I was getting tired of talking about it.   I wanted to do something new, and I knew that Halloween would be a great time to change the conversation a bit. American Specter, while fun and exciting was a bit tame. So wanted to get a tad grittier and take a risk doing something a bit darker.

 

 

  1. What has been the highlight of your career so far?

 

There are so many highlights it would be hard to pin one thing. But, the best part is meeting all types of people who have connected with my work. They continue to fuel the fire that pushes me to keep writing.
