****Caroline Leavitt’s s WITH OR WITHOUT YOU is #96 in the never-ending series called INSIDE THE EMOTION OF FICTION where the Chris Rice Cooper Blog (CRC) focuses on one specific excerpt from a fiction genre and how that fiction writer wrote that specific excerpt.  All INSIDE THE EMOTION OF FICTION links are at the end of this piece. 

Has this been published? And it is totally fine if the answer is  no. If yes, what publisher and what publication date? Algonquin Books  Publication (https://www.algonquin.com/) date for With or Without You is August 4, 2020.

What is the date you began writing this piece of fiction and the date when you completely finished the piece of fiction? Oh my God, this is a great question. The idea for this started about 7 years ago, but I couldn’t make it work, so I put it aside, wrote another novel (Cruel Beautiful World, Algonquin Books) and then returned to this one. I wrote a detailed synopsis and the first 70 pages and it sold to Algonquin, and I had 3 years to write it!

Where did you do most of your writing for this fiction work? And please describe in detail.  I’m so lucky in that we were able to buy a 3-story 1865 brick house in Hoboken bac in 1990 (right) when no one wanted to live here and you could snag a brownstone for 100K! (They now go for 3 million…) Our whole top floor is our offices (my husband is a writer, too.) I love my office love having a place to go that is dedicated to work, love the deep blue soothing color, the books I love are here, there’s a whole bulletin board of photos of loved ones, exercise stuff and a couch to nap on!

What were your writing habits while writing this work- did you drink something as you wrote, listen to music, write in pen and paper, directly on laptop; specific time of day? I go to work when I wake up, which is usually 11 (We stay up until 1 or two watching movies. We are both movieholics).  We break for lunch, I always work on the computer and sometimes I have music, but not always.

What scene/excerpt of the book was the most emotional for you to write? This scene/excerpt can be as short or as long as you prefer. Hmmmm, this particular book isn’t published yet so I cannot excerpt the scene, but the hardest scene for me was the opening, where 40-ish troubled rocker Simon and his longtime partner Stella are arguing about their relationship, drinking too much—and then they decide to share a pill the way they used to when they were first together and in their twenties—and it’s an action that changes everything.  It was so hard to get it right!

Why is this scene/excerpt so emotional for you to write? And can you describe your own emotional experience of writing this specific scene/excerpt? It was really emotional for me because I felt all the emotions they were feeling. What does it mean to have fame? What does it mean to lose it? Stella, just turned 40, is desperate to have a child and afraid that time has passed—and that was me when I was her age, so I knew that desperate kind of yearning and it was hard to revisit it (Though I was able to have a child in my 40s!) (Right) I always want people to be partnered, so it broke my heart to write a scene where a couple I already loved was contemplating breaking up.

Were there any deletions from this scene/excerpt that you can share with us? Attached is a photo marked up by my editor, which is actually pretty mild (Right) ! The first big difference is it is no longer called that title! I can tell you that my pages are often so marked up that you cannot find the words!  So originally I was going to have Stella fall into coma and emerge with a gift of healing. I couldn’t make it work. Maybe I didn’t believe it enough. But I showed it to my editor and he said, “Hmmm what if she just has a dramatic personality change instead that threatens both of them?” And as soon as he said it, I knew that was the way to go. (Plus, that personality change often happens when people go into coma and comes out. Amazing stories on that!

PICTURES OF YOU Two women get in a car crash and one survives—one is a woman fleeing a terrible marriage, the other is a mystery wife who is traveling with a suitcase and her young asthmatic son.

IS THIS TOMORROW Set in the Cold War 1950s, this is the story of a beautiful young divorce an her son, who come under suspicion when her son’s best friend goes missing.

CRUEL BEAUTIFUL WORLD Set in 1969, this is the story of a teenager who runs away to a back-to-the-land hippie paradise with her older high school teacher only to find it turning into a nightmare.

Anything you would like to add? If you are a writer, never, ever give up. It wasn’t until my 9^th novel that I had any sort of success, and at that time, I thought my career was over!
