Story Behind The Book

I came up with the idea to write a book during the 45 minute commute that I was doing twice a day with my kids. My idea was that the three of us could 'build' a book together. Well, the kids' attention lasted all of one commute, but by then it was too late for me, I was bitten and found myself deeply submerged in the creation of Dreams of Beautiful Whisper during every spare moment over the following 45 days!

<p class="block_10" style="color:rgb(0,0,0);text-indent:0px;padding:0px;margin:0px;font-family:'Times New Roman', serif;font-size:14px;font-style:normal;font-variant:normal;font-weight:normal;letter-spacing:normal;line-height:normal;text-transform:none;word-spacing:0px;">&quot;Even though I avoid reading like the plague, I read my Mom’s first draft of her as yet unnamed novel, when I was 13 years old. The first thing that came to mind was that readers who enjoyed the <i class="calibre3" style="font-style:italic;">Twilight</i>series would love this book. Four years later, the main character Amanae, is still easily recalled to me but as her being an elf not a human. I find the title she has chosen a bit of a mouthful but I’m getting used to it.&quot;</p> <p class="block_10" style="color:rgb(0,0,0);text-indent:0px;padding:0px;margin:0px;font-family:'Times New Roman', serif;font-size:14px;font-style:normal;font-variant:normal;font-weight:normal;letter-spacing:normal;line-height:normal;text-transform:none;word-spacing:0px;"><i class="calibre3" style="font-style:italic;">~ Sloan (17)</i></p> <p class="block_17" style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:serif;font-size:14px;line-height:1.25;text-indent:18pt;padding:0px;margin:0px;font-style:normal;font-variant:normal;font-weight:normal;letter-spacing:normal;text-transform:none;word-spacing:0px;"> </p> <p class="block_10" style="color:rgb(0,0,0);text-indent:0px;padding:0px;margin:0px;font-family:'Times New Roman', serif;font-size:14px;font-style:normal;font-variant:normal;font-weight:normal;letter-spacing:normal;line-height:normal;text-transform:none;word-spacing:0px;">&quot;Amanae is my favourite character and I think the village sounds beautiful and homey. I would also love to have the school from this village! I'm super impatient for Book 2 to be finished and it's really hard to stop myself from peeking at Mom's notes while she writes the second book.&quot;</p> <p class="block_10" style="color:rgb(0,0,0);text-indent:0px;padding:0px;margin:0px;font-family:'Times New Roman', serif;font-size:14px;font-style:normal;font-variant:normal;font-weight:normal;letter-spacing:normal;line-height:normal;text-transform:none;word-spacing:0px;"><i class="calibre3" style="font-style:italic;">~ Solena (13)</i></p> <p class="block_17" style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:serif;font-size:14px;line-height:1.25;text-indent:18pt;padding:0px;margin:0px;font-style:normal;font-variant:normal;font-weight:normal;letter-spacing:normal;text-transform:none;word-spacing:0px;"> </p> <p class="block_10" style="color:rgb(0,0,0);text-indent:0px;padding:0px;margin:0px;font-family:'Times New Roman', serif;font-size:14px;font-style:normal;font-variant:normal;font-weight:normal;letter-spacing:normal;line-height:normal;text-transform:none;word-spacing:0px;">&quot;I really enjoyed this book and especially seeing the characters evolve. I can't wait to read the books that will follow in this series to get drawn back into the beautiful world Tanya created.&quot; (Tracey)</p> <p class="block_10" style="color:rgb(0,0,0);text-indent:0px;padding:0px;margin:0px;font-family:'Times New Roman', serif;font-size:14px;font-style:normal;font-variant:normal;font-weight:normal;letter-spacing:normal;line-height:normal;text-transform:none;word-spacing:0px;"><i class="calibre3" style="font-style:italic;">~ Gateway Gazette</i></p>
