​As I work on a manuscript, I get to experience conversations and insights into the author's mind and the journey they went on to create the story. I really enjoy those conversations, and I thought it could be fun to turn them into a visual chat for readers to dive into! This way, you guys get to take to uncharted waters with the author, understanding more about what makes them tick and how their stories are brought to the world.
TJ and I sat down to catch up and reflect on the magic and chaos of the Volkovs in her Bratva series! We got to chat about the youngest Volkov's story, the twists and turns, and the journey to get here. TJ's best-selling Mafia series is now complete. And you can all obsess and scream over Lukyan Volkov! Oh, and of course, we talked a little bit about her upcoming shift into fantasy with The Last Syphon!
​
Kicking off Mapping Lost Worlds with TJ felt very full circle. Bratva Bride was one of the first manuscripts I ever worked on. Around four years later, and TJ is a full-time author! She's brought her dreams to life, and it's such an honour to see.
Demi is known for her ability to weave magic and mayhem into the light between the shadows in her stories. With the upcoming release of the second book in her The Divine Bride series, it felt like a great time to catch up, talk about Mia's journey so far, Demi's inspirations, motivations, and dreams, and what readers can expect in and beyond These Memories That Bind Her.
​
Now a full-time author, Demi's next chapter as a writer is sure to be exciting. I can't wait to see what she has up her sleeve not just in the kingdom of Alderdeen, but also elsewhere.​​​
