Jonathon Scott Fuqua is the author of two previous acclaimed novels: DARBY and THE REAPPEARANCE OF SAM WEBBER. Of THE WILLOUGHBY SPIT WONDER, he says, "Two years ago, I watched a very good friend die. After his funeral, I came to see that his life had been a masterpiece because all his friends grinned and laughed at his memory. With this in mind, I began writing THE WILLOUGHBY SPIT WONDER and promptly realized that the main character, Carter, shared my wish that death could be defied by force of will."
