Interviewed by:  Krista Schnee, Pacific Book  Review

 

 

 

Today we’re talking with Miguel De Leon, author of “The Unicorn”.

1.  PBR:  What was your inspiration for this book?

Just the knowledge that all families have challenges, and I wanted to express those challenges in a way that was easier for readers to identify with.

 

2. PBR:  What was the most difficult aspect of this story to write?

I suppose I didn’t want to be too heavy handed with what the twins were going through. I wanted to express the feelings they had, without being too dramatic.

3. PBR:  What did you learn from writing this novella? 

I learnt that all families have challenges…but that doesn’t mean that love is not present in that dynamic.

 

4. PBR:  Is there a particular message in this story that readers should understand?

Yes…I guess it would be understanding. We all go through challenges, but what I gathered is that we are all on the same journey, in one way or another, so judgement is really not helpful at all.

 

5.  PBR:  What books or authors have most influenced your writing? 

I LOVE JK Rowling!

 

6. PBR:  Can you recall how your interest in writing began?

I began with short stories, which lead to novels.

 

7. PBR:  Can you tell us about your current project?

Since the “GALADRIA Fantasy Trilogy”, I wrote three urban fantasy novellas…”The Unicorn,”“Carry the Knight,”and “Dawn of the Knight.”

8. PBR:  Do you have any advice for aspiring writers?

I would never dream to give advice…but I guess…just go for it!!!! Tell the story your life was meant to tell!!!

 

 9. PBR:  Is there anything that you find particularly challenging in writing?

Yes…sitting at a desk all day. I know it sounds trite…but for me, it is quite the challenge!

 

10. PBR:  Do you have anything that you would like to say to your readers?

I love you all, and thank you for all your continued support!!!!! xoxxoxox
