Character Interview: Mitchell Tobias (Uncle Mitch), Restoration

 

1. Introduce yourself to our readers. Where do you fit into the story? What should we know about you?

 

I'm Mitchell Tobias. The oldest of the Tobias siblings, a widower, and owner of the family farm. In recent years, I developed an intense interest in wetland restorations and conservation programs I'm the favorite uncle and mentor of the main male character, Seth; I'm also dead when the story begins. I wrote the letter that sends Alex to meet Seth, so without me, there would be no story. Some may say I orchestrated things from beyond the grave. And what do I say? I'd do anything to ensure my favorite nephew finds happiness and love.

 

2. What do you think about the author? Tell us everything. We want to know.

 

Elaine writes a wonderful story. And oh my, she includes some steamy love scenes. I'm happy she included my friends' supper club in the story. Tina & Harry lost my business when I died. Although what she had Seth and Alex do in that restroom…wow! She used her experience in U.S. Fish & Wildlife Service to create this story. I like how she uses her experiences to come up with ideas for stories.

 

3. What are your feelings about this story?

 

It's a heartfelt story that offers redemption for those who thought love was lost to them. Everything and everyone is worthy of restoration. I especially enjoyed the last scene when she shows Seth's total restoration as he and Alex visit my gravesite. I confess that it brought tears to my eyes.

 

4. How do you feel about being a character in this book?

 

I'm proud of holding such a critical role in this story.

 

5. What do you see in your future? (No spoilers please!)

 

Going to be enjoying life everlasting with my true love, Jennie, who passed before me. Plus, I'll be watching over Seth and Alex as they move forward in their life together.

 

6. Is there a Sequel in the future? Will you be part of it?

 

I'm thinking not as Elaine pretty much laid me to rest.

 

7. Say a movie producer comes knocking. What actor would you want to play you and why?

 

Jeff Bridges, he's fun, cocky, and good-looking for an old guy.
