However, I do love poetry of almost any kind – European, American, classical, modern-and it’s true that I have incorporated a lot of that into my books. And today I don’t read much fiction, though I do read a lot of nonfiction, particularly history and politics. I actually haven’t read most of the classics (though I am well-acquainted with the canon of Western theatrical literature, thanks to a great formation at Franciscan University). I’m a television major, and my orientation is towards theatre and screenplays, so I’m kind of atypical for a novelist. To the question, “How do you manage to get it all done?” Regina responds, “What makes you think I get it all done?” Regina and her husband Andrew live in Virginia's Shenandoah Valley with their children. Her only picture book Angel in the Waters has sold over 120,000 copies. The fifth book in that series, Alex O'Donnell and the 40 Cyber Thieves, won the 2011 Catholic Arts and Letters Award for best young adult fiction.
When she worked as the editor of Sophia Institute Press' fiction line, Rachel's Contrition became a #1 Best Seller in Amazon's Women's Fiction category, and winner of the 2011 Catholic Arts and Letters Award for best adult fiction. As an author, she has written the Fairy Tale Novels, a series of books for teens and adults that places fairy tales in modern settings with Christian themes interwoven. Currently she runs her own company, Chesterton Press, which publishes and distributes quality Catholic fiction. Regina Doman is a Catholic wife, mother, author and editor. I hope you will enjoy meeting this talented author. She has gracious agreed to visit the Goldstone Wood blog and tell us about her stories, her writing, and her newest release, Rapunzel Let Down. Doman has written several more books in her Fairy Tale series. and yet it remained magical, somehow!Ī few years later, after that first novel was renamed Shadow of the Bear, I discovered two sequels, Black as Night and Waking Rose, which I also enjoyed. and when it came, I stayed up all night reading it! I absolutely loved how this talented author could take a beloved fairy tale, set it in modern day New York, remove all traces of magic and yet. Intrigued, I requested it for a birthday present.
I first encountered her work when I was fifteen and I happened upon a certain book called Snow White and Rose Red: A Modern Fairy Tale. Dear Imps, I am very pleased today to introduce an author who has been a favorite for some time now.
