My story was heavily influenced by Greek mythology. I have loved it since I read Percy Jackson in fifth grade. So, the world is shaped around a Greek mythology feel.

I struggled a lot with confidence. I worried that my ideas sucked and no one would like them. I'd find it hard to continue writing a chapter because I would become discouraged.

The creativity that flows out of me. I honestly feel so excited when new ideas pop up. It's so rewarding to get this whole world I created into words.

It has been super positive! I have a very loyal reader base. They comment, vote, and interact. I have a snapchat for the book, and some of my readers follow that as well. They are so supportive and I absolutely love interacting with them.
Oooo, that's a surprise. I can't reveal that.
That it's okay to be a strong woman. You don't have to be dainty. You can be sarcastic and out spoken and still be liked!
From a writing stand point, have fun with it. If you aren't having fun, then what are you doing? Your book is a formulation of your ideas. Be passionate about them and it will show. From a gaining a fan base stand point, interact with your readers. Respond to their comments, thank them for their votes, and make sure they know you appreciate them.
Actually, she does. Agni is based heavily off myself. We're both very out spoken and sarcastic individuals. The only difference is that I'm very comfortable with showing emotions, and our girl Agni isn't.

How unique it is. There isn't another story like it. I was reading a lot of books and found myself bored. I felt like I was reading the same thing over and over again. Keeper of the Flame is not like other books. The story is completely original.

Once again, that's a secret.

The Wise Old Dragon
What happens when a boy, raised on old stories, meets a dragon who is dreaming of his younger days? I will tell you, they spend their time doing chores around the farm and running away to far off lakes. That is until the boy is no longer a boy and the dragon is, well, he is still an old dragon. More importantly, what happens when a young man and his wise old dragon lose their small farm tragically? When the young man’s grief is not met with loving words from his mother or stern words from his father. And when the fires of burning buildings drive the old dragon to remember times that should be forgotten. What will they do? Maybe they will run off into the mountains hiding from all that would do them harm. Or maybe, just maybe, they will enter a world that has not seen such a pairing in a very long time. Join our story as we try to have the patience required for old bones to move and young minds to learn as disaster and adventure appear hand in hand. Friends will be made as well as enemies, battles will be won and lost, and some legends will be proven to be true. A truth that should scare all of Elleton.

The Epiphany Colony
Brad Asher has been a private detective on the Epiphany Colony orbiting Mars for about a year before stumbling into a conspiracy that threatens the safety and stability of the colony. Note that the story here is the first draft and has a lot of ideas, characters, and plotlines that I ended up dropping in the final version that I released here currently available on Kindle Unlimited. The entire second half was restructured, as I ended up not being satisfied with some of the things that I introduced and felt like it had strayed too far from my initial vision of a space-based detective noir story.
