Tell us where you were born and where do you live now. I was born in Valparaiso, Chile among famous beaches.
How long did it take you to write the first draft of your manuscript? It took me about a year before revisions. I published five bilingual picture books for children in between.
Who
or What inspired you to write this book? The main
character, Alexandra. She kept coming to my mind and gave me visions of her
life. She is a strong woman, though it took her some four months to realize it.
I think she needed a sound board before she made sacrifices to save her kingdom
from High Chancellor Stanislav's paws.
Could
you give us a back-cover blurb?
A future worth rescuing, a love
worth waiting for, and a dream worth sharing…
Danger
lurks in the court as Stanislav the high chancellor, seizes an opportunity to
take the crown and the princess for himself. Caught between duty and freedom,
Princess Alexandra has to chose to be free to find a happy ever after or marry
Stanislav as he demands and let him take the crown from her. When Prince
Christoffer offers a solution by marrying her…wouldn’t that mean another marriage
without love? However, if she accepts his proposal, she will sentence him to
death.
What
genre does your book fall under? Young
Adult, Medieval Romance
What
kind of impact do you expect your works to have in the reader's lives? Beside,
entertainment, I would like my readers to see that when life gets tough, we
need to get tougher by keep trying.
What
else might pique the reader’s interest in your book? This book
is loosely written with a Russian theme in mind.
How
many books have you written in the Royal Romance series? This will
be number six. All my books are stand alone and can be read in any order.
Thank
you so much for having me in your blog, Linda.
