Hi Michael. Thank you for joining us on Writers4Higher!
1.
Tell me about yourself, your book, your life, your inspiration.
I would like
to introduce myself; Michael Kinnett, I am a new author at Southern Yellow Pine
Publishing.
After a working career and raising two
daughters, my wife and I moved to the Florida Panhandle. It was in the historic
town of Apalachicola that I began creating and caring for the Orman House State
Park Museum. When I started, the house was an empty shell. Immersed in local
history, I now enjoy sharing Apalachicola’s rich heritage with thousands of
visitors from around the world. Apalachicola
Pearl was born from my passion for the town’s history and its people. My
sincere wish is for you to enjoy reading Apalachicola
Pearl as much as I enjoyed writing her.
Where do you see your
writing taking you in the future?
When it comes to writing these days it’s not as though I have
much choice. With the storyline for Apalachicola Pearl stuck in my head I
didn’t sleep for four month until I had it all down on paper. There were times
I questioned if a seven year old girl from the 1800s might have been channeling
through me. I will continue writing just for pleasure, I love a well told
story.
How do you use your
talents/time to help others?
I am a story teller and interpreter for the Florida State Park
Service at Orman House State Park Museum. My passion is in sharing the rich
heritage of Apalachicola, Florida, with all who would listen. I feel as though I
have done my job when young people become inspired by history and want to learn
more.
