Exploring Realms: A Conversation with Author T.H. Moore
3 min read
You relocated from Southwest Philadelphia to Camden, New Jersey, at a young age. How have these diverse environments influenced your writing, particularly in “The End Justifies the Means”?
Southwest and Camden are very similar. Both are inner cities with both good and bad people as your neighbors. There is some crime, and then there are homeowners who work hard to maintain a community in their neighborhoods. The two cities did inspire my debut novel, “The End Justifies the Means,” but most of the story takes place in Camden. It’s in this city I delve into a story of a family’s survival amongst crooked politicians, bigoted police, and everyday criminals with their sights on victimizing any and everyone.
The End Justifies the Means” is uniquely creative fiction inspired by your life experiences. Can you tell us more about how your personal experiences informed the story and what messages or themes you aimed to convey in the novel?
The main message or theme I’m trying to deliver is the importance of family and how the choices we make in life directly determine how easy or difficult our lives will ultimately be. But success in life isn’t as simple as making the right decisions. The story also shows that sometimes, life will only be as fair as you and I make it.
