L. Penelope, author of SONG OF BLOOD & STONE (available now from St. Martin’s Press), was interviewed in last month’s issue of Library Journal.
In the interview, Penelope discussed her writing process…
“I’m a plotter, but my road map is very loose and allows for plenty of detours along the way.”
…her favorite books from when she was a child…
“Growing up I read widely. My favorites ranged from Frances Hodgson Burnett’s THE SECRET GARDEN and A LITTLE PRINCESS to Virginia Hamilton’s ‘Justice Trilogy.'”
…and the inspiration behind her worldbuilding.
“I wanted to see something different. I wasn’t interested in a medieval-inspired fantasy; I wanted to explore a different time period, one that isn’t specifically defined but contains elements of modern technology.”
