Dear Licia,

I read Firm Resolve because I thought it'd be about modeling. I remember seeing your face on billboards and on T.V. I thought you'd write a love story just like your music videos. Your book was about lawyers and business. There were no pictures. What happened to you? You're not the same.

 Disappointed in Southeast Asia

Dear Disappointed,

I'm very sorry that Firm Resolve failed to meet your expectations. Indeed, I was a teenage model; however, that was a long time ago. Yet, my girlish spirit lives on in a future book – Lucifina: The Belle of Hell. It's about an angel too naughty for Heaven, but too pure for Hell. After a fight with Satan, Lucifina is expelled to earth as a teenage model and can only return to Hell if she can recruit world leaders.

 Love,
Licia

Firm Resolve Further Explanation

After watching Gaddafi butchered alive, I pulled out a notepad and created an outline for my book Firm Resolve. I divided the book into five sections and carefully broke each part into chapters and sub-chapters before writing. Part 1 was inspired by the disappearance of CIA agent Jim Thompson. Jane Eyre by Charlotte Bronte was a heavy influence for much of the book. Corporal King from King Rat, stories about Vietnam, and the Iran Contra Affair inspired Natalia's father, Aaron Walker, and the backdrop of the entire story. I was also influenced by the structure and style of Jean Rhys’s Wide Sargasso Sea, which is about a Victorian marriage in the Caribbean. There are several plots in Firm Resolve — 1.) The disappearance of Natalia’s parents, 2.) How Natalia survived in the intervening years and changes from a fiery young woman into a very determined agent and why she disappears, and 3.) Curt Steiger’s fraudulent business activities as a pharmaceutical startup founder. The d

Dear Licia, I loved Firm Resolve. It's not a romance, but I'm dying to know, who did Lana secretly like? From, Curious Dear Curious, Thank you so much for your support and what a great question. I think Lana secretly has feelings for Rob Schneider because she mentions him twice in the book. Alternatively, I think the Cryptkeeper ( Tales from the Crypt ) is a good match because they say that the secret to a good relationship is a shared sense of humor. But I guess you'll have to read Firm Denial to find out.

Scheherazade of 1001 Arabian Nights

I think my mother read 1001 Arabian Nights to me as a child, but I can only vaguely remember the Arabic tales within it. What has always stood out in my memory is the framing device of the story. A King was outraged to learn that his wife was unfaithful and thus had her killed. Deciding that all women were inclined towards infidelity, the king determined to marry a succession of virgins only to execute each one the next morning. After exhausting the supply of women, Scheherazade offered herself as the next bride. This young woman was well versed in history, poetry, philosophy, the sciences, and arts. On the night of their marriage, Scheherazade began telling the king a tale but did not end it. The King was extremely intrigued by the cliffhanger and decided to postpone his new bride's execution in order to hear the story's ending. The next night, as soon as Scheherazade finished the former tale, she began another one but did not finish it, thus postponing her execution. T
