Keeping tabs on authors in LINKcat: Eric Jerome Dickey






New York Times, 1/6/2021
Vivid female characters became a hallmark of his career, which will encompass 29 novels when “The Son of Mr. Suleman” is published in April. 
“I actually get inside their heads and develop them from the inside out,” he said. “I read a lot of female magazines, anything from Cosmo to Essence. I watch my friends, female friends. I watch my girlfriends, the little bitty things they do. I listen to things they say, and a lot of times I read between the lines.” 
The characters he created, especially the women, tended to have inner strength and a deadpan sense of humor.
