In all of the books, there are high emotions running rampant throughout the series, especially during the book Dragon's Den as so much happened within that book. Was it hard to write the things that happened to the characters in Dragon's Den as compared to the previous books?
Graeme Rodaughan
I often feel what the characters are feeling as events unfold. I attempt to capture those emotions and communicate them to the reader through vivid portrayals of events.
As an author, I live for those moments when I can capture the most dramatic and moving episodes of my character's lives.
For me, if the characters are worth caring about and operate authentically, then the events they pass through will generate the right emotional responses.
My job as an author is to write characters we can all care about, then arrange dramatic events. The emotions will follow for both author and reader.
I can promise you that the most moving and dramatic moments in The Metaframe War are still to come in the forthcoming (and last) two books of the series.
