    SAMPLE EXCERPT:

    “What was the inspiration behind the creation of this book?”

    The story behind Graveminder came from the UK, a place that Melissa Marr and her family would annually visit. Particularly, she was traveling in Ireland in 2007 when she read a paragraph or so about the “hungry dead.” As an author, Melissa Marr finds her inspiration in books, songs, people around her, lore, and everything else in her surroundings. Her series, Wicked Lovely, was actually inspired by Scottish lore. For Graveminder, Melissa Marr based her story on the lore that the dead must be nourished with food, drink and story for a set time. If the needs of the dead were not provided, the dead will come back and claim flesh, blood and breath, instead. She also considered the concept of liminality in creating the two worlds that she introduced in Graveminders. She considered that, in the real world, there are always opposites such as, in and out, good or bad, pros or con. She created a world that would combine these two sides and came up with the dead being able to walk among the living and the living being able to walk among the dead

      Story

      Foreword

      A personal note from the editor…

      What if…? was the question that gave birth to Behind the Story Books.

      When I pick up a book, from the first letter to the last, I am often completely enveloped in the novel - I'm laughing, rejoicing, fighting, and crying, side by side next to the characters. Even long after the book is finished, I found myself reminiscing about the scenes and characters over and over again in my head like a broken tape recorder – I was left high and very dry.

      One particularly pleasant evening, after closing the last page to a wonderful story, I just HAD to find out everything about the book - how it was created, how it was developed, who the author was, - everything.

      This sudden spurt of passion has led me to create and develop Behind the Story Books, to share with you - my fellow book lovers – a fan’s love for books. I hope you can see the love that went into the creation this book. Please enjoy this book and support Behind the Story Books. It is created for a fan, by a fan.

      So without further ado, I present to you…
