Now you can see how often I check my GR account! Hope you've emailed and I've been able to let you know the pub story on this book.
So glad you loved and I want to write more in the series. My agent is looking for a USA publisher so I can continue writing Ava Sykes! xxKim

Thanks, Carolyn! It's available only in ANZ at this point but you might be able to find a used copy on ebay? Or, Aus Amazon? There are copies around... let's manifest you one! :)

Lou, I haven't read Vladimir Megre or heard of these books. Sounds fascinating though. I will put that on my list as well.
Thank you and sending all best wishes.

I don't consciously think about how I am communicating when I write. I'm 'in' the story. But, I know it comes through as energy, just as it is. It's like a form of telepathy between author and reader, especially if the words/meaning resonates with the reader at that moment in time.
Hope that makes sense!

Hi Loulou, pleased to meet you, and I'm delighted you enjoy the QE series so much. I haven't read Katharine Kerr but have bookmarked her page and put her on my TBR list.
People reading my QE series have reported some "strange happenings". I think it's all that messing in the quantum realm. Opens the mind. :)

Big and little inspirations hit all the time, in a kind of random way, like while talking with friends or riding the bike or walking to the beach . . . doing the dishes. But the real fuel to production is ritual routine. You have to take the writing seriously. "Treat it like a job," Stephen King says and it's fabulous advice. Also, have a place to write (den, office, corner of your room) where you can close the door, every day, unplug your social media, phone etc, and write. Inspiration is in the doing. You get disciplined, an go for it, every day.
Goals help too, and deadlines, especially when they're looming. :)

This is a great questions because ideas come from everywhere and we can't always pinpoint the origins. But with my current project I know!
It all started with an painting by John Waterhouse called The Siren. That, and a youtube demo of the continental drift. Did you know that in 250 million years, they will all be back together again as a single land mass?
When these two images collided, the Amassia series was born! The world building has been amazing. :)
