Featured Interview With S.G. Blaise
Tell us a little about yourself. Where were you raised? Where do you live now?
I was born in a faraway land of castles, monarchies, and fallen dictatorships, aka Hungary. Hollywood movies were largely forbidden under Soviet oppression during my childhood, but my dad smuggled them in any way, risking his life so that his children could experience the magic and hope inherent in those stories. I watched rebellions unfold in real-time and journeyed across the Atlantic Ocean for love. I ended up in sunny southern California, where I'm living my dream — writing stories, annoying family members, and playing with my lovely dogs.
At what age did you realize your fascination with books? When did you start writing?
From a young age, storytelling has been a part of my life in every way you can think of, from the history around me to the stories I would create in my head to soothe myself to sleep. I wrote my first story at the age of ten, inspired by a nightmare that I had to take control over. Despite that experience, I wasn't an avid reader until age thirteen, when I picked up the book my dad had been recommending to me for years. Through this, I've learned the importance of exploring our emotions and feelings through reading and writing.
Who are your favorite authors to read? What is your favorite genre to read. Who Inspires you in your writings?
There are many authors to choose from, but I adore Ilona Andrews and Brandon Sanderson's work. They craft their stories in a way that pulls the readers in and keeps them wanting more! My favorite genres to read are Science Fiction and Fantasy. There's something unique about sci-fi fantasy keeping me coming back for more. In some ways, this inspires me with my writing. Reading other stories and immersing myself in another's world encourages me to bring my vision to life.
