Goblin's Hollow
Goblin Trolls. Elven Trolls. Gorgolites, Dark Shifters, and more! These are the rather unique takes on various fantasy spawned creatures found in Goblin's Hollow - stories "based on a land of mystery and magic located in one of the other thirteen realms of existence; a community of crossbred magical beings."
Written by Jessica Minor, she has developed quite the menagerie in her Goblin tales - found (currently) only on Wattpad. Wattpad, for those who haven't yet experienced it, is a site for people of all ages to share written tales and poetry in a community of both amateur and established writers. I'm a member, and I had the opportunity to read some of Jessica's works, and meet her at a Peoria Con where she stopped by my booth to sample my own books and talk fantasy.
Her stories were so interesting to me I just had to reach out and get her to talk a little on her series.
When did you know that you wanted to be a writer?
JM: Wanted to be a writer when I was 4. My mother read Stephen King to me and that was it.
How did you develop the ideas for your stories?
JM: My ideas come in the middle of the night... Meditation helps.
Which projects were the most fun to develop?
JM: The goblins hollow series.
What are your plans long-term for your writing?
JM: Different work may be a goblins hollow prequel.
This question will start off sounding like an old joke – a person walks into a bar (or convention or bookstore) and bumps into Jessica Minor – what would be your elevator pitch to showcase your work?
JM: Magical youth friendly universe of cross bred creatures.
As an author, it’s sometimes difficult to finally say a product is finished, no matter how many times you review or edit. Is there anything you would go back and change in your completed works?
JM: Time to write is hard I tend to devote a few late nights to it.
Do you have a certain method you use when you write – i.e., a certain room, music, mood, etc., to help get you in the right writing frame of mind?
JM: I listen to Irish rock when I write.

Where can people go to find out more about Jessica Minor?
JM: To find me I'm on Wattpad and Facebook.
