UAlexander R. Garcez, umbhali we- Ghost Stories we-New Mexico kunye nezinye iincwadi ezili-10 eziseburhulumenteni, ufikelela kwisifundo sakhe ngokuhlonela kunye nokuncinci. Iincwadi zakhe ziquka ii-akhawunti zokuqala zokubambisana kunye nezihostlo, ezinika iingxelo zakhe ngokukhawuleza kunye nolwalamano olusweleyo kwiindlela eziqhelekileyo zesifundo.

Ndandivuyela ukunxibelelana noMnu Garcez malunga neencwadi zakhe zomoya, ngexesha nje leHalloween .

Sitshele okufutshane malunga nemvelaphi yakho kunye nendlela ophelile ngayo ukubhala iincwadi kwiimvumi.
UAntonio Garcez: Ewe, abazali bam babengabaphili bokomoya, njengabagogo nomkhulu. Utata wam, uyise kamama, wayeyiMescalero Apache evela eNew Mexico, nonina ka-Otomi waseNdiya wase-Old Mexico. Ndizalelwe ngokwenene kwisihloko. Ndahamba kunye nabazali bam xa behamba bezingela. Umna wam omncinci kunye nathi sasisegumbini kwaye siza kugcina. Yaye yileyo ndlela ndayifumana ngayo ulwazi lwam.

Yintoni eyenza unqume ukubhala la mabali phantsi?
Ndandisebenza ukusebenzela isebe lamapolisa eLos Angeles njengombhali wenxelo yolwaphulo-mthetho, ngoko ke ndinamava amaninzi ngokubhala. Xa ndathuthela eNew Mexico, eSanta Fe, ndaya kwilayibrari yendawo ukuba ndikhangele iincwadi kwizinto ezimbi ngenxa yokuba behlala bendibuza. Kwaye ndibacaphukile ngabo, kuba behlala bebalwa ngamabali anikezelwa kwizizukulwana ngezizukulwana. Kwaye enikwe loo nkcazelo, okanye ukungahambi, ndagqiba kwelokuba ndabhala incwadi kwaye ndathendlebe nabantu abaye baqala ukuqala kunye namava okuqala. Ndaphumelela kule ncwadi kwaye ndilapha, iincwadi ezilishumi elinanye emva koko.

Ziyintoni i-Ghosts?

Sonke sasiva iindaba eziphazamisayo malunga neziganeko ezihamba phambili, kodwa ngamava akho, ziphi na izihostlo?
Oko kuxhomekeke kwimeko yokomoya ohambelana naloo moya okanye umoya. Xa ndisebenzisa imigomo yam, ndijonga kwiimeko ezimbi ezingakumbi zomoya njengokuba zizitho zomoya, kunye nemibandela engcono, ndiyindoda

Kutheni kunjalo?
Kukho umahluko phakathi kwezi zibini. Kwaye ukuba sihamba phakathi kwala maqela aphikisayo, ufumana zonke iintlobo ezahlukeneyo zokomoya ezinxulumene namaqumrhu, njengeedemon, imvelo yemvelo yomoya odibeneyo kwizilwanyana kunye nezinto ezinjalo. Ngoko, ukuba ndineempendulo ezichanekileyo, okanye ukuba ubani uthethe ukuba unempendulo ecacileyo malunga nokuba iziphi izitho okanye imimoya, akukho mntu wenzayo. Sithetha nje ngeli nqanaba.

Abantu bafanele baqhelane nelokuba kukho indawo yokomoya ebukho bethu. Singabantu babantu bokomoya emzimbeni womzimba, kungekhona enye indlela. Siphila ngokomoya kunokuba siyazi.

UAntonio, uyayesaba imimoya okanye izigwili?
Hayi, andiyikwesaba. Yintoni eyenzeka ngamanye amaxesha ndiyandimangalisa, ngoko ndiyothuka. Kodwa andiyiki.

Uthini na kubantu abakhona, abayibona njenge-spooky?

Ghosts of Albuquerque kunye neNew Mexico

Ngaba ucinga ukuba i-Albuquerque kunye neNew Mexico inemibutho engaphezulu kunezinye iindawo?
Hayi akunjalo. Xa ndithetha ngeenxa zonke kweli lizwe kunye nokufundisa, abantu bahlala bebuza loo nto. Emva kokufunda iincwadi zam okanye ukuva amanye amabali endingabaxelela ngayo ngeMexico yaseMexico, ngokukhawuleza bafumana impendulo efanayo, yinkwenkwe, iNew Mexico kufuneka ibe neenkampani ezininzi zokomoya, ngaphezu kweMassachusetts okanye eOhio, njl. baxelele ukuba akusoloko kunjalo

Kodwa into esinayo kweli lizwe livulekile ukuvuma izinto ezinjengeemimoya okanye imimoya, esinika imvelaphi yethu yomlando. Okokuqala, ngokuqinisekileyo, isiseko safakwa ngabantu baseMelika baseMelika, endleleni yabo yokujonga yonke into ephilayo yemvelo kwindalo yonke. Kwaye ngoko ngokuza kwabaseSpeyin ababeza nabo nenkolo yabo yobuKatolika, into eninzi (okanye yayisetyenziswa ukuba) ivulekele kwizinto ezifana nomsebenzi wokomoya kunye nembonakalo njengoko babonakala kubantu abangcwele. Unokufunda konke malunga nobomi bangcwele kunye nendlela abaye bafikelelwa ngayo ngabalondolozi boMoya abahlukeneyo kwaye banikwe imiyalezo ephathelele ukuba abantu basebenzise ngokwabo kunye nokukhula kwabo. Ngoko isiseko sivuthiwe kwaye siqhamo apha eNew Mexico.

Ngoko ukuphendula umbuzo wakho, impendulo ayikho, asiyi. Sithande kakhulu kwizinto ezinjengeengcango zokugada kunye neenyawo, izithunzi kunye namazwi esiva. Kwaye asinako ukukhawuleza nje ukuwafaka endaweni "yombono wethu."

Ingaba kukho naziphi na izindlu zaseHalququerque?
Ewe zinjalo. Ewe, ziindawo zokuhlala ezizimeleyo, ngoko andizange ndifune ukucacisa ukuba ziphi. Kodwa sinabo apha, kwakunye namashishini. Kanye kunye nazo zonke izinto, icawa yamaKatolika. Ndibhalela ngolu hlobo kwi- New Mexico Ghost Stories, uMqulu II. Kule ncwadi, ndithetha ngomfundisi othile ozinikele endaweni yakhe yokuhlala, ngenxa yesinye isizathu esaziwa kuye kuphela. Abasebenzi bambona rhoqo; Abasebenzi basebandleni bexeshanye bambona rhoqo. Kwaye kwenzeka nje kule minyaka emithathu edlulileyo.

Kuthetha ntoni xa umntu uthi indlu yabo ihlaselwa?
Oku kuxhomekeke kwinto athetha ngayo ngokunyuka. Ndiya kubabuza, kakuhle njani na, kwaye baya kuthi, kakuhle, ndiyazi, kodwa nditsho kakuhle, uthini na, kwaye ke ndiza kucacisa ngakumbi kwaye ndibabuze amava ayenayo bekuninzi kunye namaxesha amaninzi abantu bacinga ukuba banendlu enomoya kuwo kwaye bahlala ekhaya labo. Kwaye njengoko ucinga, akusiyo yonke ixesha le nyaniso. Akunjalo ngaso sonke isikhathi, kodwa kukho iziganeko apho benza ngokwenene kubonakaliswa ngokomoya.

Ukudibana nemimoya engebiyo

Eminye imimoya kwizindlu zabantu ingaba nobungane. Ngaba kukho imimoya engathandekiyo umntu anokujamelana nayo, kwaye yintoni enokuyenza xa beyenzile?
Kuxhomekeka kwimbono yabo, nokuba bayakholelwa kwizinto ezinjalo okanye kungenjalo, nokuba yintoni imvelaphi yabo yonqulo okanye yokomoya. Oko kuchaza ukuba yiyiphi indlela abaya kuyo, kwaye yintoni isimo sabo sengqondo, kunjalo. Kukho izinto ezininzi zokuqwalasela. Abanye abantu baphila ngokulula ngezinto ezinjalo ezenzeka emakhaya abo. Abanye ngokuqinisekileyo abakwenzi. Kukho lonke uluhlu lweendlela abantu abazenza ngayo ngabanye kwizinto ezinjalo. Kodwa uya kufumana abantu abathi ndathetha ngokukhawuleza ukuba bahlale kunye nezinto ezinjalo, kunye nabo bangenako, okanye bayenqabe. Yaye abo bangenako, ngokuqinisekileyo, kukho iindlela zokususa loo miqondiso.

Ngaba unokuthetha okufutshane malunga naloo nto?
Baya kusebenzisa izinto ezinjengeentonga ze-smudge, okanye babize umnqweno kwiimeko ezinjalo. Okanye ngeendlela zabo, thandaza i-rosary, okanye nithandaze nayiphi na imithandazo kunoma naluphi na unkulunkulu onawo, okanye uyazi. Ngamanye amaxesha isebenza, amaxesha amaninzi ayifuni.

Ngoko ukuba umntu unokudinga uncedo ekukhutsheleni imimoya enjalo, unokuzikhusela njani kwiikharatani abathi banokukunceda?
Imfundo, ukwazisa. Kufunda. Unokugweba ngakumbi okanye ngaphantsi ugweba umntu ngekhava lakhe kulo mzekelo. Ukuba bathi, "Hayi, ndiyazi ukuba ndenzani ngokuthe ngqo" kwaye banomdla wokukwenza oko, kwaye ngakwelinye icala, banweba isandla sabo into ethile (imali), ngoko ndiya kuba neengxaki ezininzi malunga nokusebenzisa loo mntu. Kwaye abo bathengisa kwi-Yellow Pages, njl., Kukho into encinane ye-charlatanism. Bafuna ukuxhaphaza abo babuthathaka okanye besengozini. Ngoko nantoni na ilizwi lakho elingaphakathi liyakuxelela, ndiyakuphulaphula oko, umthambo wakho, kwaye uye kuloo ndlela.

Kwiwebhsayithi yakho unemifanekiso yabantu abazama ukubamba amandla omoya kwifilimu.
Babizwa ngokuba yi-orbs yokomoya, apho izinto zenzeke, ngamanye amaxesha azinjalo. Kwamagumbi athile asemakhaya, okanye kwezinye iimeko, (umoya) unokuba uqhotyoshelwe kwinxalenye yenitshala. Abantu bangithumela iimposiso zabo okanye iifoto abazithathile kuzo zonke iUnited States, kwaye ndithumele ezinye zazo kwiwebhusayithi yam.

Ungasondela njani kwincwadi entsha?
Andiyi kufuna izifo. Xa ndiyifumene nemibhalo yesandla yam incwadi, ndihlala phantsi ndixoxe nabantu abaye baqala ukudibana nemimoya. Kuzo zonke iincwadi endizibhalileyo (11 kude kube ngoku), ngamakhulu oodliwano-ndlebe, andizange ndibuyele kumntu oyedwa kum, uthi, awuzange ubike njengoko ndathi. Ndizama ukufumana onke amagama ngokuchanekileyo ngokunokwenzeka, kunye nayo yonke ingcinga. Ngokuqinisekileyo kufuneka ndiyifake encinci, ngisebenzisa ilayisenisi yokubhala ukwenza into enomdla ngakumbi, ngelixa lihlala linyani kwisihloko.

Iincwadi zakho zenziwe kusezantsi-ntshona, kwakunye neCalifornia kunye neYosemite Park. Ngaba uyinyani ufuna ukubhala iindaba ezimbi kuwo onke amazwe ase-US?

Ndade ndade ndandidliwano-ndlebe nabalindi beemfazwe ambalwa, i-Army, i-Marines kunye namaqhawe emfazwe e-Iraq naseVietnam.
