From Readers to Writers

Interview-8: Kindred Spirit, by coolcourtney5

Your past will never truly be forgotten, I realize this now. Denying it will only make things worse, accepting it will allow you to move on. But do I want to move on? I know how I felt in my past lives, but does that impact how I feel now in this one? 

Through my visions my past lives are revealed, but it is through my heart that the feelings truly arise. People I once trusted are not who I thought they were, Those I hate turn out to be the very people I can trust. 

There may be a war happening around me, but there is also a raging war within myself. 

 ------ 

 ShadowBrook and Yuivaria, Two opposing kingdoms ruled by Supernatural beings. Each hold hidden secrets, each have done cruel things. Each desire one person... 

 King Ryker of ShadowBrook has uncovered a secret that may turn the tables on the ongoing war. 

Somehow his enemy always knew his moves ahead of time, that will all change. Ryker has learned that the King's younger sister has the ability to see into the future, this is how his enemies can foil every attack he unleashes. 

 It was all so simply to King Ryker. He would take the girl and use her to give him the upper hand in the war. However when he finally has her, when he finally looks into those familiar eyes, he is met with someone he knew very well, someone he has loved time and time again.

Will Princess Amaya stop hating him long enough to remember the love they shared? What will her past lives reveal to her? Can she handle all that is uncovered? Or will it be the very thing that destroys her? 

 War brought the two together, but can love hold them there? Or is the hatred built up in this life too much? 

 What will young Amaya's visions reveal about herself, her Brother, and her former love? 

 Princess Amaya of Yuivaria will have to decide if she wishes to be who she was raised to be in this life, or return to who she once was? Can she trust those who have betrayed her?

 Can she trust someone she once loved?

1. {Selcouth questions} Were you always an avid reader or writer?

{Courtney answers} Yes!! I have been write and reading since grade three. Before that I went to a school where they really wouldn't teach me because of my 'disability.' So when I went to my new school they worked tirelessly to help me catch up with everyone. I didn't know how to read or write so my new school had me make up small stories to entice me to write more, and read over them.

   2. {Selcouth questions} That's sad. I hope your are doing well, now. Moving on, how did you get the idea for your book-Kindred Spirit?

  {Courtney answers}I created the idea for Kindred Spirit by thinking and developing an idea I had while dreaming.

   3. {Selcouth questions} Is the theme or protagonist, of your book, related to you or your life? 

   {Courtney answers} I try to relate all of my characters to me in some way. Amaya is another version of me.

  4. {Selcouth questions} Who inspires you to write? 

 {Courtney answers} I pull inspiration from many people who I enjoy supporting. All of my lovely followers inspire me every day.

{Courtney answers} I will always write and I'm trying to get published. But I'm also going to school to become a social worker.
