WHO MY CHARACTERS REPRESENT

Some people want to know if my characters in League of Ascenders represent anyone in particular. Well, I am often inspired by different people in my life, but I'd have to say that my characters mostly represent me—who I am, how I feel; my flaws and things I've struggled with in my life. Sometimes, though, the characters represent someone I used to be, and sometimes they represent who I wish I was.

For example: the way Larimar longed to find a family and a place to belong is who I've always been; the way Brandolyn feels about love at the beginning of the story is how I used to be; and the way Vaughn loves unconditionally is sometimes how I wish I was.

The fact that they fly—well, I fly in my dreams. :)
