Interview at YA Fiction Queen Reviews

YA Fiction Queen Reviews

I’m honored to be on YA Fiction Queen Reviews for an interview. Read the excerpt below and check out the full interview on YA Fiction Queen Reviews.

1. Were you good at English, in school? And when did you decide to become a writer?
 
I did enjoy studying English in school. In fact I loved reading, researching, and studying English so much that I went on to do my Master’s degree in English Literature.
2. Where do your ideas come from?
 
Everywhere! Anything can spark the promise of a great story or character. But most of all I enjoy creating fantasy worlds and exploring them through my stories.
 
But for this particular book and series, it all started nearly ten years ago, with a tapestry in my grandmother’s house. One day I stood before it and wondered, what if I could step into the tapestry? Where would I end up? And so the world of Avalonia sprang into existence.
 
From then on, the person who stepped into the tapestry was a young 16-year-old girl who didn’t know who she really was, her name was Aurora, and this is her story.
