Featured Interview With Cecelia Hopkins-Drewer

Tell us a little about yourself. Where were you raised? Where do you live now?
I live in Adelaide, South Australia. I was raised in the Barossa Valley, which is about an hour north of my current residence. It sounds like I have not moved far, but I have also lived in New South Wales for some ten years, before returning “home”. I have a female ginger rag-doll cat. Ginger females are relatively rare, but Tangy also has some white on her.

At what age did you realize your fascination with books? When did you start writing?
I had cloth books to play with when I was a baby. I started “writing” before I went to kindergarten, scribbling for hours on lined paper in imitation of my mother. I’ve been discouraged a few times in my life, and almost given up hope of publication, but I can’t stop writing – it is part of me.

Who are your favorite authors to read? What is your favorite genre to read. Who Inspires you in your writings?
I see three questions here, and need to address them separately:
1) My favourite authors change over the years. J.R.R. Tolkien, C.S. Lewis, Jane Austen, Charles Dickens, and Shakespeare remain high on my list. Just recently, I caught up on Stephen Donaldson.
2) My favourite genre is series fantasy – I can not get enough of it – good, bad or average.
3) Who inspires me? H.P. Lovecraft, Edgar Allan Poe, Stephen King, L.M. Montgomery, Bram Stoker, William Wordsworth, Robert Browning & Lord Tennyson (poets).

Tell us a little about your latest book?
My latest book? I have just released FAITH AND LOVE which is the sequel to SILVER SPRINGTIME and the dramatic crux of my Christian university series. I don’t want to do spoilers – but I can say I am very proud of FAITH AND LOVE, and really, really want to share it with the world. Author’s tend to be nervous about their own work, but I believe FAITH AND LOVE is the book for anyone who has ever loved and lost…

I am also proofing SAINTS AND SINNERS which is the dramatic sequel to MYSTIC EVERMORE my vampire teen fantasy series. SAINTS AND SINNERS has a real “bite” so far as paranormal fantasy goes – best leave it at that! The book should be available within the week.

Look on my Amazon page for a surprise around Halloween! I’m a little ahead of myself here – but AUTUMN SECRETS is the third in the series and is designed to be a special Halloween thrill for you or a friend.
