About the work
Red-Handed came out as a screenplay first, and then developed into a novel. The first scene that came to my mind was the conversation that Louie and Rose had when he's at the airport. I could see the irony in what he claimed so strongly "he didn't want". So I started playing with the notion of getting exactly what you didn't want, but then it turns out to be exactly what you needed and you truly longed for. I loved the idea of having my characters bicker and dwell in the irony of how interested they were in each other's life, choices, and paths. It also gave the an opportunity to include familiar characters from my college years, and place these two main characters in the town I called home for four years.
