Accepting others for who they are and accepting yourself for who you are.Ī Tale of Two Djinns, which is celebrating its book birthday this month, is a sexy paranormal Romeo & Juliet story with genies, feminists, kickass action & adult fun. ![]() So my debut novella, The Djinn’s Dilemma, is about a genie assassin falling for his human target, but it’s also about acceptance. Easier said than done, but that’s what I strive for. When I write, my goal is to write the best, many-layered story that I can. My favorite authors include Isabelle Allende and her complex stories like The House of the Spirits and Lois McMaster Bujold and her wonderful Vorkosigan saga. Opening the book is like pulling one end of the ribbon so the bow collapses and the more I read, the more layers are unwrapped, the more surprises revealed. Mina: To me a really good story is like a gift. The “find” along with the prospect of a unique reading adventure is a high as wonderful as those that daredevil-adrenaline junkies seek. The joy of reading is heightened when I stumble upon a new writer. ![]()
