Interview with Cat Forsley, Author of 100 Days of Love

Cover of 100 Days of Love, by Cat Forsley

Beautiful Audiobook… Out now!

This book, this book, I’m excited to talk about this audiobook!

100 Days of Love is a beautiful compilation of spoken poetry, by Cat Forsley. Can you say, “A breath of fresh air”? I can, do, love it!

I recently won a copy of this book (how cool!) and could not wait to interview Cat about her audiobook. It is 40 minutes of beautiful poetry. I played it on my computer and enjoyed this soothing collection of romance; it focuses on sweet ties between one man and one woman. I felt my soul elevate as I enjoyed the artistic words.

Of course, what else would I expect but beautiful words and enchanting voice from talented Toronto-based musician Cat Forsley? If you don’t follow her work, she is the lead singer in the band  As The City Rumbles Underneath. Now that the introductions are complete…

Here is my Interview with Cat Forsley (CF):

>>Hi Cat, welcome! Congratulations on your first book! So tell me, why did you write this book?

CF: I wrote 100 Days of Love because My heart was in a place where I just couldn’t stop writing. I write every day : Lyrics , Poetry , prose and stories and after my band As The City Rumbles Underneath uploaded the final cut of Hearts Expire in early October, a new story started to form itself in my heart . And it came out so naturally , so fluidly .

It’s about a Boy and a Girl / man and woman and explores the Lightness of love . The Questions and the answers are Love . And so It came – with a hard rush and was recorded at Morph Productions about a week after I wrote it .

Quote from poem "The Everlasting Now"

Quote from poem “The Everlasting Now”

>>That’s awesome! What do you hope listeners will get out of the book?

CF: I hope that listeners will Get a good feeling when they hear this prose . It’s prose that carries, and explores Love in a metaphysical way. It’s Part Of my dream world : spoken .

The First time i Listened to the final version , i Myself was put in a lullaby world , where all is always alright . I hope that Listeners will also take the underlying theme with them – and that is – that there is no separation. We are Love, We are made to loved and be loved .

>>I feel your soul, your melody, your heart in this book. Why is the book in audio format?

CF: The Book is in audio format because my voice has always been my strength, my favourite element . This is also why I sing . It’s Something I cannot get enough of and I thought my prose would be better showcased , animated with my Voice . It Gives the prose a more intimate feel. All I do is Heart centred , and that lends itself truly to using my Favourite instrument – my voice .

>>Thank-you for being here today! To my readers, thank-you for joining us ((smiles all around)).

To get your own copy of 100 Days of Love, pick it up now at Amazon, iTunes or CDBaby.  You can also listen to clips there from the romantic, insightful poems!

The self-published masterpiece 100 Days of Love was recorded at Morph Productions and contains 30 tracks/poems/pieces of wonder.

    I love the fact that she published it as an audiobook first, that’s so interesting. Poetry is such an oral art, and I always reread it aloud so it makes a lot of sense. I love the title of the collection as well. Will definitely check it out. Thanks for sharing!

    Very nice interview Christy. Not too many do an audiobook first and then a printed book. That’s a different way. Hope she does well with it.
