🎯 Where Should I Start?
ⓘ About Charmaine Wilkerson
Before writing the novel “Black Cake”, she spent several years working most notably in flash fiction. The crafting of the novel first started when she wrote this short scene about two teen girls that started swimming in Caribbean waters during the 1960s. They were both driven by this connection with nature and a visceral ambition and their strong determination to swim, despite the fact that they were also afraid. Next, she wrote these seemingly unrelated scenes set during contemporary times. After a while she realized that they were all the same tale. And that is when Charmaine knew that she had a novel, that she was not just all over the place, she was actually circling an idea. Wilkerson has always dabbled, read, and written.
