We at Twinja Book Reviews are very grateful to have a blog that promotes different cultures, lifestyles, religious beliefs, and things that often have to fight to gain attention with the mainstream audience. We get to meet and chat with a lot of "like minds" and it's not often just limited to other bloggers. We aren't 100% sure who encountered who first, but Camille thought our blog was cool, whilst we thought the same as well. She fights very hard to promote her own culture/background in her books, and that's just half the battle. Well, here goes nothing!
1. We'd love for you to start the conversation by telling us who "are" and what drives your passion to write?
I am many things, but I am primarily a wife, a mother, and a writer. I’ve always loved writing. As a little girl, I used to tell stories to my stuffed animals at night before falling asleep. These days, stories pop into my head and I feel compelled to write them down and share them with others.
2. You have a very interesting story to why and how you became an author, do you mind sharing that story with our readers?
I’m fifth-generation Chinese-American. I write science fiction and fantasy books with Asian characters and/or Asian settings. I grew up reading speculative fiction stories largely devoid of Asian characters and culture. This, coupled with a passion for my heritage, is the reason I strives to bring some aspect of Eastern myth, legend, culture, and ethnicity to all of her writings.
It's never too late to join Twinja Book Reviews in our month of promoting diversity! We are interviewing authors, bloggers, editors and agents, and giving you the scoop on diversity in fiction from their points of view!
