I’m not quite sure I believe in it, but it completely
captures my imagination. I love the colorful displays and the incense and the
idea that voodoo mambos really can solve our problems, or at least bring us a
little luck.
Usually at around shop three or four, my husband will start
to say things like, “But we never buy anything.” Or “Let’s just skip this one.”
My answer has always been the same, “I need this for book research.”
For years, he would remind me that I write about biker
witches and demon slayers, not voodoo mambos. Until… my editor called and asked
if I’d like to write a short story about a voodoo mambo. I was so happy. How
often do you get to sell a story and put one over on the hubby at the same
time?
We both got a kick out of it as I wrote Gentlemen Prefer
Voodoo. It’s about a New Orleans
voodoo shop owner who has it all – except for love. So she decides to cast a
spell to draw the perfect man for her. Only she should have been more specific,
because her ideal man died in 1811 and was buried in St. Louis Cemetery Number
One. Her spell calls up a sexy, hot (totally whole) zombie love. He’s fighting
for one last chance at love while she’s basically trying to put him back in the
ground.
It was so much fun to write. A lot of that came from the pure
joy of imagining a world where voodoo is real. And who knows? Maybe it is. I
think I need to visit a few more voodoo shops to find out. In the mean time, I’d
like to give away a copy of the anthology, My Zombie Valentine, that includes
Gentlemen Prefer Voodoo. Just post and tell me if you believe. ;)

I think I might believe. My sister went to New Orleans for work and bought me a Good Luck Mama doll as a souvenier, a short time later, I won a trip to New Orleans. I like to think the Good Luck Mama doll wanted to see her hometown again!
I think anything is possible lol. I did get to visit New Orleans once but just for part of a day and I'm afraid we never got off of Bourbon Street lol.
I don't know if I believe or not, but I want to. I love creepy stuff. Ghosts, witches, voodoo, etc. I would love to go to New Orleans. It's a town thats always interested me.
I don't thing I believe in voodoo, but I think magic is fun and it would be cool if it existed.
I truly believe that there is magic in New Orleans. I live an hour away and have been there many times. You just get a totally different feeling while you are there. Those voodoo priestesses know something, that's all I am saying.
