<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, Tahoma, sans-serif;"><span style="background-color: white; line-height: 20px;"><br /></span></span><span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, Tahoma, sans-serif;"><span style="line-height: 20px;">But first... please read a very special blogpost in which Judi describes the events that inspired her to write <i>The Angel Connection</i>.</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, Tahoma, sans-serif;"><span style="line-height: 20px;"><br /></span></span>
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; line-height: 20px;"><b>What Inspired <i>The Angel Connection</i></b></span><br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background-color: white; background-position: initial initial; background-repeat: initial initial; margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;">
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Authors are inevitably
asked: “What inspired your book?” When I’m queried about <i>The Angel
Connection, </i>my standard (and true) reply is that my own disillusionment
with love spurred the longing to write the quintessential love story -- one
that I could control! I was also enchanted by the historic village and environs
that had recently become my new home. Finally, there was a fascination with the
Pennsylvania Impressionist movement that had its roots virtually on my cottage
doorstep.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background-color: white; background-position: initial initial; background-repeat: initial initial; margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;">
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background-color: white; background-position: initial initial; background-repeat: initial initial; margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;">
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">But the real story
behind the story is much less romantic and much more complicated. It began with
fragments of relentless thought patterns triggered by two seemingly unrelated
sources: a) a century old gravestone and b) a headline grabbing television news
story. Initially I didn’t understand why I was obsessed with both, but I knew
something important was brewing.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background-color: white; background-position: initial initial; background-repeat: initial initial; margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background-color: white; background-position: initial initial; background-repeat: initial initial; margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;">
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Shortly after buying a
home in the village that’s the setting for <i>The Angel Connection,</i> I
was exploring the local cemetery and came upon an obelisk at the highest rise
of the graveyard. The carvings read as follows: “ETTIE SHAW… died on
February 14 1874… age 22 years 6 months… 21 days. WILLIE… our only baby… died
February 11 1874.” Immediately a vision of the tragedy appeared in my mind: the
achingly young wife, giving birth to a child that lived barely a day, dying
herself three days later, no doubt by hemorrhage, on Valentine’s Day of all
days. I saw the bereaved young father whose world had been shattered. My
imagination attached itself to the heartbreaking family drama that had played
out one hundred and twenty years ago in this remote country village. I couldn’t
shake the images. I played them over and over in my head, grieving as I
revisited the grave countless times.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background-color: white; background-position: initial initial; background-repeat: initial initial; margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background-color: white; background-position: initial initial; background-repeat: initial initial; margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;">
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">At the same time a
tragedy was unfolding in the news media that similarly obsessed me. A married
woman named Susan Smith was claiming that an African-American man had kidnapped
her two little boys. She was all over the TV, granting countless interviews,
sobbing and pleading for the return of her babies, her hapless husband by her
side. The media was in frenzy, especially when the little boys’ bodies were
dredged up from a nearby lake, strapped into their car seats in the back of Susan
Smith’s own vehicle. The truth finally came out: she’d drowned them herself to
be with her lover -- just drove the unsuspecting little boys into the lake
before saving herself. The reporter in me was horrified and mesmerized by the
story. How could she do it? Oddly, I found myself wondering how that murder
would have played out <i>one hundred</i> <i>years ago</i>? Absent the
pressure and unrelenting attention of modern media and the accompanying
technology, would she have gotten away with it? What kind of woman
would sacrifice her own child over a love affair? What if she killed her
child <i>inadvertently </i>and had to cover it up? How would she hide
the body while simultaneously hiding her grief, her
culpability? Who <i>is</i> this woman who embarks on a
course that can only lead to disaster?<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background-color: white; background-position: initial initial; background-repeat: initial initial; margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;">
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Can she be a sympathetic
character in spite of her deep flaws?<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background-color: white; background-position: initial initial; background-repeat: initial initial; margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background-color: white; background-position: initial initial; background-repeat: initial initial; margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;">
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">These human dramas,
separated by more than one hundred years, were the bizarre, disparate seeds
that took root in in the murky mysterious place where story incubates and, if we’re
committed and lucky, ultimately blooms. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background-color: white; background-position: initial initial; background-repeat: initial initial; margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background-color: white; background-position: initial initial; background-repeat: initial initial; margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;">
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">And that’s the true
story behind the story that manifested as <i>The Angel Connection</i>.<o:p></o:p></span><br />

<div>
But first, please read about the true paranormal events that happened to me and made their way into my book.<br />
<br />

</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background-color: white; font-family: 'Times New Roman', Times, serif; font-size: 16px; margin: 0px;">
There’s a scene early in <i>The Angel Connection</i> where paranormal happenings convince Morgan the protagonist that the old Rectory she’s impulsively moved into is haunted. The spookiest event takes place one evening in the living room.<u></u><u></u><br />
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background-color: white; font-family: 'Times New Roman', Times, serif; font-size: 16px; margin: 0px;">
</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background-color: white; font-family: 'Times New Roman', Times, serif; font-size: 16px; margin: 0px;">
Morgan has just discovered a series of charcoal drawings hidden under the floorboards upstairs. The drawings are now spread out on the floor; “a patchwork quilt of white squares resting silently on the carpet. Suddenly the segment of carpet nearest us begins to rise, creating a kind of tunnel effect. As the first tunnel dissolves back into the floor, a second one ripples and rises, then a third and a fourth until the entire carpet of sketches is undulating like miniature ripples on a lake, a subtle low-rise ballet of pale parchments breathing up and down, astonishingly alive.”<u></u><u></u><br />
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background-color: white; font-family: 'Times New Roman', Times, serif; font-size: 16px; margin: 0px;">
</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background-color: white; font-family: 'Times New Roman', Times, serif; font-size: 16px; margin: 0px;">
This scene didn’t come from my imagination -- it actually happened to me. Back in the '70s my young sons and I moved into an old converted schoolhouse in rural Chester County, Pennsylvania. Shortly after I signed the lease, the landlord casually mentioned that the house was rumored to have ghosts. As a single mother with two little kids in the middle of nowhere, I would have preferred this information be disclosed <i>before</i> the signing of the lease. Too late. My name was on the dotted line. Shortly after that, weird stuff began to happen. Strange shadows oscillating on the cathedral ceiling, a phantasmagoric vision of a woman folding clothes, inexplicable noises in the kitchen, faint footsteps across the floorboards.<u></u><u></u><br />
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background-color: white; font-family: 'Times New Roman', Times, serif; font-size: 16px; margin: 0px;">
</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background-color: white; font-family: 'Times New Roman', Times, serif; font-size: 16px; margin: 0px;">
One Sunday afternoon, I was hosting a small brunch and talking about the unsettling possibility that there really <i>was </i>a ghost. One of the guests playfully called out, ”Here Ghostie, here ghostie!” My sister-in-law, in her signature Milanese accent, warned: “Don’t call him! He come!” The next moment the carpet in the living room stirred and began to undulate across the floor, creating tunnels from one end to the other. We stood there, pop-eyed and jaws agape. The eerie spectacle continued for perhaps forty seconds. That was the first time the carpet moved, but not the last. It happened several times more over a two-year period and there was no explanation for it.<u></u><u></u></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background-color: white; font-family: 'Times New Roman', Times, serif; font-size: 16px; margin: 0px;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background-color: white; font-family: 'Times New Roman', Times, serif; font-size: 16px; margin: 0px;">
We eventually vacated the schoolhouse (which we adored, despite the poltergeistic activity!) when my work required me to be closer to Philadelphia.<u></u><u></u></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background-color: white; font-family: 'Times New Roman', Times, serif; font-size: 16px; margin: 0px;">
</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background-color: white; font-family: 'Times New Roman', Times, serif; font-size: 16px; margin: 0px;">
About five years had passed when a new friend and I discovered in passing that we had both lived in the schoolhouse, though her stay there was a few years prior to mine. We got to talking about the cute little house and ghosts, and I related my own scary stories, with emphasis on the undulating carpet. What she told me next made the hairs on my neck stand at attention.<u></u><u></u></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background-color: white; font-family: 'Times New Roman', Times, serif; font-size: 16px; margin: 0px;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background-color: white; font-family: 'Times New Roman', Times, serif; font-size: 16px; margin: 0px;">
She’s been in the process of moving out of the schoolhouse. All her furniture was gone but she couldn’t get into her new place until the next day, so she was spending one last night at the house in a sleeping bag on the living room floor. As she lay her head down, she felt the floorboards under her begin to ripple. It felt as if the floor was rising and falling. She spent a sleepless night and couldn’t get out of the place soon enough.<u></u><u></u></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background-color: white; font-family: 'Times New Roman', Times, serif; font-size: 16px; margin: 0px;">
The undulating carpet in <i>The Angel Connection </i>is the first in a series of spooky paranormal events that mysteriously connect two women born a century apart. The convergence of their lives and loves leads to an explosive karmic conclusion. Could such an eerie event as a carpet rising and falling happen in “real life”?<br />
<br />
Yes Dear Reader, it happened to me.</div>

Judi made <a href="http://philadelphia.cbslocal.com/video/9423241-pat-ciarrocchi-interviews-judi-barton/" target="_blank">a return appearance on CBS3 </a>during her recent book tour for <i>The Angel Connection</i>. This time however, it was not as an on-air reporter, which is how locals were used to seeing her for years, but as an author on "Talk Philly," for <a href="http://philadelphia.cbslocal.com/video/9423241-pat-ciarrocchi-interviews-judi-barton/" target="_blank">an interview with host Pat Ciarrocchi</a>. Judi and Pat talk about life in Hollywood and how Bucks County inspired this first novel.<br />
<br />
And as an extra bonus on this Throwback Thursday (#tbt), here's Judi from her previous life as a CBS reporter:<br />

What exquisite timing! Judi is doing a book tour in Bucks County right now <i>and</i> today<a href="http://www.2readornot2read.com/2013/10/the-birthplace-of-angel-connection-by.html" target="_blank"> her guest blog for <i>To Read, or Not To Read </i></a>is about the birthplace of <i>The Angel Connection. </i>The coincidences are too numerous and too odd to be written off, so it was fated that Judi had to write this story which features reincarnation and karmic retribution at its core.

<br />
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
<span style="background-color: white; color: #181818; font-family: Georgia, Times, 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 18px;">I recently received a copy of The Angel Connection by Judith Anne Barton in exchange for an honest review. I thought the premise of this book sounded really interesting, and I was not disappointed. This is the story of two women. In 1996 we meet Morgan, a twice-divorced unemployed woman who is estranged from her grown son. She decides to make a fresh start, so she moves to Bucks County, Pa, site of the Pa Impressionist movement. In 1895 we meet Evangeline, a preacher's wife and mother to 3-year old Willie. Evangeline (Angel) is a talented artist who has given up painting in order to support her husband in his ministry. She is trapped in a loveless marriage, and she meets a famous painter, Daniel. The author tells the parallels between the lives of both women. I could feel both stories building to a big conclusion. I found myself crying at times, because the book was so moving. I really felt the pain of the characters. This book had a bit of everything for me - love, passion, betrayal, karma, mystery, secrets, romance, history, tragedy, redemption, and a paranormal aspect that I found to be quite unique. This is a debut novel for Ms. Barton, and I hope she continues to write. I thought this book was hauntingly beautiful. It was a book I didn't want to put down.</span></blockquote>

Irene writes: "The story is emotional, tinged in doom and scary in places. The heroines seem to be deeply flawed but very real and humane. All women will be able to relate to their plight in that most women are trying to balance career and family obligations... So, grab a box of Kleenex, and a pot of tea and settle into your favourite chair. You are in for a heck of a ride reading this wonderful book!"<br />

<a href="http://abookishaffair.blogspot.com/2013/09/review-angel-connection-by-judith-anne.html" target="_blank">A Bookish Affair</a> reviews the book and says, "<span style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif; line-height: 18px;">Overall, this book would be a great pick for historical-fiction fans who are looking for a bit of paranormal as a side dish for their history."</span><br />

The lovely Sezoni Whitfield sent over a screen cap showing Judi tweeting during the #WritersKaboodle authors chat, just at the moment that it was a trending topic on Twitter.

Judi had a live Twitter author chat this morning with Sezoni Whitfield who produces the "Writers Kaboodle" weekly author chat on Twitter. Judi was a bit nervous at first, but she came through with flying colors! She got into the swing of things and was tweeting faster than Sezoni could ask questions. You can find Judi's chat on her Twitter stream at <a href="https://twitter.com/jabartonbooks" target="_blank">@jbartonbooks</a>. Check out #writerskaboodle on Twitter every Thursday from 9am-9pm ET and well as its <a href="http://www.writerskaboodle.blogspot.com/" target="_blank">website</a>. Sezoni is a great supporter of authors and interviews an author every hour. Thanks for the great discussion Sezoni!<br />
