Short Story Press Presents Kidnapped Writer by Eve Gaal
Kidnapped Writer is about our melting pot here in America. The main character is Viola and she’s having a horrible day. In fact, it is absolutely the worst day of her life. After years at her newspaper job as a writer, they’ve cut back on everything and put her into the advertising department. On her way out of town for the weekend, she gets kidnapped by a strange family needing her help. Outraged, Viola finds herself held captive by a very old woman in a dingy Italian restaurant. As the grandmother reveals the startling story about her family, Viola quickly forgets her own troubles. The dilemma is that things have changed and even if she wanted to help, it might not be possible. Sympathizing with her kidnappers doesn’t exactly solve her problems. Or does it?

This short story is the second one from this author about this same character. Now Viola is back and she continues to not have one of her best days.The story starts out with Viola finding out that she has been down-sized...she no longer works at The Examiner as a journalist, but now in advertising. No matter that she's worked hard on the stories that she has produced. It doesn't seem to make much difference. She's being cast down into advertising hell. She leaves visibly upset, leaving behind the lions to rip each other apart. She's already in pieces.
As she drives out of the city, she doesn't realize that there has been a car following her. When one of her car's tires goes flat, the car behind her stops. She thinks they've come to help her. Next thing you know, she's being forced into the back of their car.
She gets taken to a small diner and is seated next to a very sweet looking but crotchety old lady who is not afraid to speak her mind. She speaks of the diversity of this country, how her and her late husband came from across the ocean...she from Italy and he from Germany. She speaks about their children, how each one of them found someone to love that was not part of their same culture. A "melting pot" of love.
So, why was Viola kidnapped? What was the purpose of scaring the crap out of her to tell her about the love of this family? You'll have to read it to find out. You'll realize that love comes in all forms, shapes and colours. As a Canadian, we refer to that as a "mosaic".
5 stars.

Short Story Press Presents Kidnapped Writer edition by Short Story Press Eve Gaal Literature Fiction eBooks Reviews
This is a well written story, with an amusing plot line. I enjoyed the main character and the problems she has to solve. The other characters were fun, too. There is one major twist to the action which is not what you expect to happen and which offers some interesting information. If you like light hearted mysteries, this is for you.
Kidnapped Writer is fast paced, suspenseful and fun!
Devastated, Viola Timmons finds herself demoted from newsroom reporter to ad exec. Now her dream of being an investigative reporter has come to a standstill. However, a dangerous situation could change this, but only if she's able to get out of it alive.
The freedom to love whomever we choose is one of the great things about our country, yet what has Viola done to incur the wrath of kidnappers regarding this?
Kidnapped Writer keeps the pages turning!
I really enjoyed this short story by Eve Gaal about a reporter who winds up getting a demotion because of the budget cuts that have plagued the newspaper industry in recent years. It won't take you long to read it but I think you'll be impressed with the characters and the easy style in which it is written.
Kidnapped Writer is the story of a passionate yet distraught writer named Viola who learns that she's been downsized. Just when she's at the zenith of her depression, fate strikes and she's kidnapped. What happens next is not only filled with surprises and a nice twist, but there's a lesson here for everyone that has a dream. Viola's passion is writing, and it takes a little kidnapping for her to realize the power of HER words.
Bravo Ms. Gaal, bravo!
Eve Gaal's short story, "Kidnapped Writer", pulls us into a world of interesting characters and an unusual plot. The main character Viola is having a terrible day that gets grossly worse when she is kidnapped. Viola's controlled calmness and spunkiness helps her to endure surprises while the solution to everyone's situation is manifested in her writing.
There is a dash of humor and a hint of romance that makes the right recipe for a delicious story. Eve's ability to engage and to entertain the reader demonstrates her skill and talent. "Kidnapped Writer" was truly an enjoyable story!
