Background
Information
My book was created from my desire to share in my imagination. It's the perfect story to read if you're wanting to escape into a daring adventure from the safety of your cozy couch and throw blanket.
I still remember the first time I picked up a fantasy novel. I was instantly in love with it, and I realized that I had the creativity needed to write, but I lacked the talent, or rather, the skill at my tender age of 20 to structure the twists and turns of a series. As a result, it took me over ten years and several revisions to complete this story. Not only did I have to balance this between full time school, full time work and later a full time family- LOL- but I needed to mature in order for my characters to mature.
I've done a lot of research in order to help me set each and every scene. I was determined to describe what I saw in my mind's eye, and the thesaurus and I are besties. But what I've learned the most in this process is that each character is a piece of me. They all resemble some part of who I am with except for Young Master Morgan, who is a person I aspire to become. He was the hardest one for me to develop, but I love him dearly.
If I could tell you anything, I'd say that having a talent or skill is a special gift, but it won't mean a whole lot if you don't share it with the world. This is me sharing with you, and I know you'll end this book feeling inspired and invigorated.
