Join Robert “Doc” Gowdy, author of the science fiction novel, Captain Bonny Morgan: The Cassandra Prophesy, as he virtually tours the blogosphere in May & June 2010 on his first virtual book tour with Pump Up Your Book!
About Robert “Doc” Gowdy
Robert “Doc” Gowdy is a graduate of the University of North Texas with a Ph.D. in Literary Criticism and Theory and an emphasis on Nineteenth-Century British literature. His specialization in literary theory is psychoanalytic criticism and theory, particularly Lacanian psychoanalysis, with further emphases on Milton and Eighteenth-Century literature. He is currently an adjunct assistant professor at Texas Woman’s University where he teaches various literature classes. His interest in writing is long standing, but aside from academic writing his first novel, Captain Bonny Morgan: The Cassandra Prophesy is his first foray into fiction. Captain Bonny Morgan is based on archetypal themes and patterns from mythology, such as fairies, goddesses, and the Hero’s Journey, and based loosely on Doc Gowdy’s active duty service in the United States Marine Corps with special emphasis on the Golden Age of Piracy in the Caribbean at the turn of the Eighteenth-Century.
The Interview:
Could you please tell us a little about your book?
Captain Bonny Morgan: The Cassandra Prophesy is about the first steps in bringing down an evil galactic empire, the empire of Emperor Tulla the First. Captain Bonny Morgan, a beautiful galactic pirate, is contracted by an unknown “entity” to kidnap Princess Cosette, the Emperor’s step-daughter, in an effort to set events into motion. After Captain Morgan kidnaps Princess Cosette, her sister, Princess Lysette, sets out to find her kidnapped sister with the help of her beautiful but extremely mischievous slavegirl, Tink. The story is all about Tink and Princess Lysette’s adventure, and all the political intrigues, hidden agendas, unexpected revelations, and bold, daring gambits by everyone involved at every level of the conspiracy to overthrow the Emperor Tulla.
The novel contains a whole host of wonderful characters that I’ve become quite fond of. There is, of course, Captain Bonny Morgan herself, a beautiful, but mysterious, galactic pirate of an unknown species. Princess Lysette, the beautiful biological daughter of the Empress Flaccilla, and step-daughter to the Empress’s husband, the Emperor Tulla. Princess Lysette is the sister of the kidnapped Princess Cosette. Tink—perhaps my all time favorite character of the novel—is Princess Lysette’s slavegirl. Tink assists Princess Lysette on her journey to find her kidnapped sister. Tink is very beautiful, extremely mischievous, quite funny, and has a secret, well hidden, past. Along the way, Tink and Lysette meet the former pirate, Jon Black, a burly, jovial man who owns a café on the slave planet, Miin. Jon Black is also of the same species as Captain Morgan. While on Miin, Tink and Lysette also meet the beautiful young noble, Lady Brit, who they enlist as another ally in their adventure. When Lysette, Tink, Lady Brit, and Jon arrive on the pirate planet, Spiller’s Point, they meet Bully, the colorful owner of the Pretty Red, a seedy pirate tavern. Next they meet Colleen O’Malley, the fierce, but beautiful, leader of the pirate faction known as the O’Malley Brethren. Colleen O’Malley has a sophisticated, technologically advanced hideout facility on the snow planet, Prilla. It is on Prilla that Captain Morgan, along with the others, meets John Francis Padrick “Gunns” Mannigan, a former Shield Marine General that Captain Morgan has also been contracted to find. Gunns Mannigan has a loyal and trusted friend with him on Prilla, the burly Sergeant Major Sean “Buster” O’Malley, another former Shield Marine and Colleen O’Malley’s brother. While on Prilla they also meet Kana O’Shay, a former slavegirl turned pirate. Kana is a very resourceful pirate in that she is known as Colleen O’Malley’s “cleaner” because she can “clean” the identity from anyone or anything. Eventually, when everyone arrives back on Spiller’s Point, they meet (and Kana enlists as her partner) Blaze, a beautiful, redheaded Fenian pirate who becomes very helpful along the way. And among Captain Morgan’s pirate crew aboard her ship, the Fancy, there is Miss Bernadette Tell, Morgan’s first mate, and Mr. Quist, the Fancy’s Bosun.
On the evil side of the ledger, there is, of course, Emperor Tulla. But perhaps the most central Imperial character is Admiral Kul, the head of the Imperial Night Watch, an organization similar to the Nazi SS. Admiral Kul’s aide is Commander Pangko, the Admiral’s “go to” man. Captain Be’elle is the Captain of Admiral Kul’s personal Imperial Super Carrier, Death’s Talon. And the Talon’s executive officer is the rather unsavory Commander Pellon.
There are, of course, other characters, but the ones I’ve mentioned are pretty much the central characters of the novel.
Did something specific happen to prompt you to write this book?
I suppose you could say something “specific” happened to prompt me to write the book, but it was something rather unconscious, really. The substantive idea for the novel came rather out of the blue, so to speak, but it came with a “knowledge” of the ending for the novel. Once I had a concrete idea about how to end the novel, writing and completing it was rather easy. The novel almost seemed to write itself—once I got going, that is.
Who or what is the inspiration behind this book?
I got the inspiration for this novel from reading about the female pirates Anne Bonny and Mary Reed. Additionally, I usually take my ideas from old movies, old and new television shows and, of course, literature that I’ve read. For instance, Tink obviously is a nod to J. M. Barrie’s Tinker Bell. She’s also a nod to Pauley Perrette who plays Abby Scuito on NCIS. I also took inspiration and ideas from my service in the United States Marine Corps, which helped me to create the Shield Marines, General Gunns Mannigan’s First FAST Company (which evolves into the Princess Guard), and the character of Sergeant Major Buster O’Malley. Also, with the characters Tink and Princess Lysette, I took a little inspiration from famous comedy teams of the past, such as Abbott and Costello, Laurel and Hardy, etc. That comedy team inspiration also carried over into the pirates Kana O’Shay and Gunner Blaze. So, as you can see, I take my ideas and inspirations from a great many places.
Who is your biggest supporter?
I would have to say the my friend, Jennifer “Gin” Crowder is my biggest supporter. Not only did she read the rough manuscript for me, she helped me to pick the cover art for the novel. We ultimately decided on an artwork by Boris Vallejo and Julie Bell titled: “The Void.” My publisher said it was one of the best covers for a novel that he’d ever seen.
Your biggest critic?
I’d have to say my long time friend, and fellow former musician, Richard Gaines is my biggest critic. We’ve known each other for over thirty years. I bounced a lot of the ideas for the novel off Richard. Without his critical input, some of the ideas, and characters, may have never been developed.
What cause are you most passionate about and why?
In the last year have you learned or improved on any skills?
Do you have any rituals you follow when finishing a piece of work?
My writing habits are these. I begin writing at about 2:00 a.m. or 3:00 a.m. in the morning. I like to write at my computer, in the living room, with the television on. After working my way through a pot of coffee (chocolate flavor) while I’m writing, I then move on to Dr. Pepper. On a good day (which, lately, seems quite often) I can go until about 2:00 p.m. or 3:00 p.m. in the afternoon. Otherwise I’ll usually follow the Ernest Hemingway rule and quit about noon. As with Hemingway, I try to write each and every day. That is the environment in which I write. As far as rituals following the completion of a particular work, I’d say that I don’t really have any. It seems that once I finish a piece of work, I’m on the next.
Who has influenced you throughout your career as a writer?
I would have to say the Victorian author Wilkie Collins has been my greatest influence as a author. His novel The Woman In White had a profound influence on me. It is perhaps the best novel, in my opinion, that I’ve ever read.
What is the most important thing in your life right now?
Completing the sequel to Captain Bonny Morgan: The Cassandra Prophesy.
What are you currently working on?
Right now, I’m writing a sequel to Captain Bonny Morgan: The Cassandra Prophesy. The sequel will be titled, Captain Bonny Morgan: Fenians Wake. Fenians Wake alludes to the Fenians of Irish legend. Fenians can be heard referenced in the Irish ballad, “The Foggy Dew” by the Dubliners, especially the version sung by Paddy O’Reilly on YouTube. Fenians Wake is currently a third of the way complete. In the new novel, Tink, by sheer force of her impressive will, sort of takes over command (more spiritually than operationally) of the Princess Guard, Princess Lysette’s elite bodyguard unit and personal assault force commanded by Gunns Mannigan. Currently the Princess Guard is made up of a single company of Guardsmen, but Tink wants to expand the Princess Guard to battalion strength, adding an additional 500 Guardsmen to the elite unit. She and Sergeant Major Buster O’Malley will go to the snow planet of Prilla (Colleen O’Malley’s pirate hidey-hole) to recruit the new Guardsmen from among the ancient Fenians residing high in the mountains on Prilla. I will be introducing some new characters in Fenians Wake, such as Molly Malone (the owner of the Fenian tavern, O’Herlihy’s), Miss Flanagan (the rogue Lynch Brethren’s “enforcer”), and Sergeants Kelly and Flynn, both of whom are special favorites of Tink’s among the Princess Guard. Tink has a rather deep, abiding sisterly love for Sergeants Kelly and Flynn.
Do you have any advice for writers or readers?
Just this— as a writer, never give up. Keep writing. Be consistent and write every day and you’ll get the job done. That said, I’d like my readers to know that I quite enjoy humor, and that my writing tries to employ that humor as much as possible. I just hope that my readers are able to find, and enjoy, the humor in my writing.
Is there an author that inspired you to write?
Yes—Christopher Vogler. His book The Writer’s Journey helped a great deal in convincing me that writing a novel was not that difficult if you have the right plan, the right strategy, along with a good idea. It is a great book, and I highly recommend it to other aspiring authors.
What are some of your long term goals?
To complete the sequel to Captain Bonny Morgan: The Cassandra Prophesy. I am going to ultimately write a trilogy for Captain Bonny Morgan. And from that trilogy I will be writing a second trilogy involving The Cassandra Chronicles, all about the Princess Cassandra who is born between Captain Bonny Morgan: The Cassandra Prophesy and Captain Bonny Morgan: Fenians Wake. All the great characters from the first trilogy will reappear in the second.
What do you feel has been your greatest achievement as an author?
Clearly, writing Captain Bonny Morgan: The Cassandra Prophesy. It was great fun to write, and I have become very fond of the characters I’ve created. Particularly Tink!
What do you feel is your biggest strength?
My sense of humor.
Biggest weakness?
Beautiful women.
What do you feel sets this book apart from others in the same genre?
Humor, beautiful women, and the strong Golden Age of Piracy flavor to it. Oh, and the great characters I’ve created.
You know the scenario – you’re stuck on an island. What book would you bring with you and why?
Wilkie Collins’ The Woman in White because it’s such a great novel. Hmmm? But there’s always Daniel Defoe’s Robinson Crusoe.
If you could go back and change one day, what would it be?
The day I decided to leave the Marine Corps. I believe I would have stayed in a little longer.
Are you a different person now than you were 5 years ago? In what way/s?
I think I’m pretty much the same guy I was five years ago, just five years older.
What is the most important lesson you have learned from life so far?
Maintain your sense of humor as much as possible.
Is there anything you regret doing/not doing?
To some degree I regret leaving the Marine Corps after only twelve years. I regret not getting my Ph.D. much sooner that I did.
What is your favorite past-time?
Driving the back roads of Texas and searching out all those little “Mom and Pop” Bar-B-Q and hamburger joints in all those small towns along the way.
Is there anything else you would like to share with us?
Yes, fairies do exist. Just ask J. M. Barrie. And, the goddess is among us. I know, I saw her at Wal-Mart.

Captain Bonny Morgan: The Cassandra Prophesy by Robert “Doc” Gowdy (click on cover to purchase at Amazon)
About Captain Bonny Morgan: The Cassandra Prophesy
Called to action by a mysterious ancient Order-an ancient Order in cahoots with the Empress Flaccilla of the First Galactic Empire of Emperor Tulla-to help bring about the fulfillment of a long forgotten prophesy, the beautiful galactic pirate, Captain Bonny Morgan, sets out on her mission to successfully bring the prophesy to reality. By kidnapping the Empress’s daughter, Princess Cosette, Captain Morgan sets into motion an adventure awash in political intrigues, hidden agendas, unexpected revelations, and bold, daring gambits by those involved at every level of the conspiracy. Setting out to find her kidnapped sister, Princess Lysette, joined by her beautiful, mischievous, and extraordinary slavegirl, Tink, crisscrosses the galaxy in a bawdy, erotic, and often hilarious attempt to find Cosette. Along the way, Lysette and Tink fall in with a variety of extraordinary allies in their attempt to find Cosette, meeting the Lady Brit, Jon Black, Pirate Queen Colleen O’Malley, Gunns Mannigan, Buster O’Malley, the beautiful pirates Kana and Blaze, and Bully, the roguish owner of the pirate tavern, the Pretty Red.
Read the Excerpt!
“I’m in command, Lieutenant,” said Gunns.
When the Lieutenant turned away from Morgan and looked toward Gunns, Morgan quickly yanked off her helmet and stuck the muzzle of her blaster rifle under the officer’s chin. “Don’t none a’ yeh move!” she shouted across the room.
At the back of the tavern, one of the armored Night Watch troopers immediately started to level his weapon on Morgan. Before anyone in the room knew what had happened, Tink had drawn her blaster pistol in the blink of an eye sending a sun-bright energy bolt streaking just over the heads of several pirates that instantly blasted through the unsuspecting trooper’s armor, dropping him like a ninety kilo sack of Miinian barley. He lay dead on the wooden floor in a smoking heap between two shocked, wide-eyed pirates staring down at him in stunned amazement.
“Now,” shouted Morgan, “all a’ yehs drop yer weapons! An’ be quick about it, or we’ll drop another a’ ya!”
Immediately, all the troopers’ weapons fell clattering onto the wooden floor.
Stunned, Lysette stood slightly away from Tink and carefully regarded her armored figure for a moment. She had never in her life seen anything quite like that, and she’d spent many an hour with quite a lot of weapons proficient Imperial Death Watch troopers when she was a child.
Outside the tavern, blaster fire had suddenly erupted as Captain McTaggart and his Marines began systematically eliminating the troopers around the exterior of the Pretty Red.
Taking off his helmet, Gunns shouted, “Buster, take off a helmet from one of these troopers and begin monitoring his communications.”
Quickly removing his own helmet, Buster replied, “Aye, aye, Colonel darlin’.”
Now that the inside of the tavern had been effectively secured, Morgan again turned her attention to the officer whose chin sat resting atop the muzzle of her blaster rifle. “What happened ‘eer, mate? Who kilt them four Night Watch over there lyin’ dead on th’ deck?” she asked, motioning with her head toward the dead bodies by the entrance. “Obviously none a’ these gents, er they wouldn’t still be sittin’ ‘eer as hostages.”
Here’s what critics have to say about Captain Bonny Morgan: The Cassandra Prophesy
“I read an average of 75 books per year and this is one of the best I have ever picked up.”
