Story Behind The Book
I wanted to do a story about a faerie, and an old boxing movie from the 1950s popped into my head; could I combine the two? The result is "Ten Cent Wings."
I then went on to imagine a beginning for the angel/faerie in "Ten Cent Wings." Call this short the origin episode. So I imagined the faerie lived in a hidden world, away from humans, but because of some awful things done to her, she left that hidden world. I then imagined men in the late 1940s, coming home from World War II, and having problems finding jobs. This would be the faerie's prey - she needed money for her cigarette habit.
