An Interview with Keziah Elaine Theriot
By Gale Laure
Keziah Elaine Theriot - or Kizzy, as she is called – is the main character and the murder victim in Evolution of a Sad Woman. Kizzy is described as being a different woman with each of the five men that she loved. These five men join forces as strangers to try and solve her murder in this mystery, suspense, thriller and romance novel.
Kizzy, how many men have you loved in your life?
I have loved only six men in my life. My father, Alan, was the first man I ever loved. My father was strong and gentle all at the same time.
Tom Hastings was my first true love. Tom was the most fascinating man I ever knew. I could feel weak in Tom’s arms. He was so big and so strong.
William Newton was the smartest man I have ever known. He was actually brilliant about everything. He had dignity and poise. His smile could light up a room.
Evan Picard was the gentlest person I ever knew. He tries to be tough with other people, but he always treated me with gentleness. His hands were strong and soft all at the same time.
Jimmy Smithson was the sexiest, bad boy I have loved. Even Jimmy’s badness was good. Jimmy does everything with a passion.
Father C.D. Casmiersky was the best person I have ever known. He is a genuinely good and God-like man. He was pretty good looking, too.
How many men have you had sex with, Kizzy?
(Giggles). I don’t think that number is important. I can tell you, many people have found me sexy and none of them have ever been disappointed.
What did you want for your life?
(Kizzy answers very solemnly)
I always wanted happiness. I wanted to be a movie star with the camera lights flashing around me. I wanted to strut on a deliciously, deep, red carpet with one of the men I loved on my arm. I wanted to go home from the event to my children sleeping sweetly in their beds. I wanted to kiss their foreheads and cover their toes. I wanted simple peace.
If you could live your life over again, would you change everything? Anything?
To change my life would say that I had done everything wrong. I think I would repeat meeting and loving the six men I have loved. Would I change everything? No. Would I change some things? Maybe. I would not do everything differently. You see this time I would know the outcomes of all my actions in advance. So I would do everything the same. It would only be the outcomes that would be different.
Do you feel your loss of innocence was your downfall in life?
My loss of innocence? I never lost my innocence right up to the end.
Do you think you are a good person, Kizzy?
Of course, I am. I am as good as anyone else. I am much better than many people. Believe me, I could name some.
Were you a different woman with each of the five men?
I don’t know why you say that. I am just me – always. Maybe they were different with me.
Kizzy, what do you think about the men you have loved falling in love with other women?
(Slowly moistens her large pink lips) Those five men will never love anyone the way they loved me. Once I love a man, he stays loved. (Smiles) They will never, ever forget me!
Lastly, Kizzy, what would you like to say to the readers?
Don’t judge me. You don’t know me.
(Leans forward and whispers) And, you never will!
(smiles)
