Essays from Dysfunctional Families: Literary Betrayal Interview

 

Casey Bell is an author from New Jersey who has written a few books. We have conducted an interview with him about his latest book: "Essays from Dysfunctional Families: Literary Betrayal."


Why did you name your latest book, "Essays from Dysfunctional Families: Literary Betrayal"?
"Essays from Dysfunctional Families: Literary Betrayal" is two books in one. I wanted to write books based on true events without the permission of the people it happened to. After giving it some thought I realized how angry some of them might be. I began to write "Literary Betrayal" which is about an author who used his families’ and friends’ darkest secrets as his subject for a best-selling book he wrote. In "Literary Betrayal" the reader gets to see the negative effects of the author writing such book. In the process of writing the book (Literary) I chose to write the book the author wrote ("Essays from Dysfunctional Families.") so the reader could understand why his family and friends were so angry with him. In short, "Essays from Dysfunctional Families" is the first book written by Dean K Brent and "Literary Betrayal is the book about the author Dean K Brent."

Is it based on real life stories?
The second book "Literary Betrayal" in this book is completely false. The first part of the book "Essays from Dysfunctional Families" is a book with ten essays from ten different people from all over America. Each story is either completely false, or loosely based on true events.

When did you start writing?
I wrote my first book in 2004, but did not finish it until 2016. I wrote and finished my first book “The Diary of Stephanie Dane” in 2007. I have been writing off and on since then and published a few more books.
