Interview with Jeff Hudson, Author of Deconstructing Us: My Trouble with a Throuple

What’s the story behind the story? What inspired you to write Deconstructing Us: My Trouble with a Throuple?

My experience in a throuple literally turned my life upside down. I never in a million years thought I’d allow a third person equal footing in my 22-year partnership but I did and the events that followed were quite harrowing to say the least. I felt compelled to share my experience and what I believe is a healthy open relationship vs. one that could be ultimately destructive.

If you had to pick theme songs for the main characters of Deconstructing Us: My Trouble with a Throuple, what would they be?

For me – “Wings” by Jackson Dean and “Still Alive” by Arizona.

What’s your favorite genre to read? Is it the same as your favorite genre to write?

All genres but I’m a sucker for a good book cover and title. If it catches my eye, I’ll generally pick up a copy.

What books are on your TBR pile right now?

Phantasma by Kaylie Smith and The Family by Naomi Krupitsky.

What scene in your book was your favorite to write?

Definitely the scene when I first met Lucas Walker – the third man in.

Do you have any quirky writing habits? (lucky mugs, cats on laps, etc.)

Waking up in the middle of the night and writing in the dark.

Do you have a motto, quote, or philosophy you live by?

Loyalty is everything.

If you could choose one thing for readers to remember after reading your book, what would it be?

Learn how to listen to your body’s “inner whisper.”
