I typically shy away from answering this question because there is such a negative association between the word “psychic” and what people term as “hoaxes”, but since I believe in honesty above all else, I’ll provide an honest, though not in-depth, answer. Yes, I have a bit of experience with the paranormal, but not like Molly does.</div><div style="font: 14.0px Helvetica; margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px;"><br /></div><div style="font: 14.0px Helvetica; margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px;">LE:</div><div style="font: 14.0px Helvetica; margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px;"><br /></div><div style="font: 14.0px Helvetica; margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px;">2) As an author, I'm often asked "Where do your ideas come from?"&nbsp; How about you?&nbsp; Can you describe how the story finds you?</div><div style="font: 14.0px Helvetica; margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px;"><br /></div><div style="font: 14.0px Helvetica; margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px;">MF:</div><div style="font: 14.0px Helvetica; margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px;"><br /></div><div style="font: 14.0px Helvetica; margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px;">My stories come to me from different places. Typically they stem from real-life events and morph into stories. Megan’s Way stemmed from an event with my mother, and Chasing Amanda was born from my worst fears.</div><div style="font: 14.0px Helvetica; margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px;"><br /></div><div style="font: 14.0px Helvetica; margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px;">LE:</div><div style="font: 14.0px Helvetica; margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px;"><br /></div><div style="font: 14.0px Helvetica; margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px;">3) Do you write full time or have a specific block of the day to write?</div><div style="font: 14.0px Helvetica; margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px;"><br /></div><div style="font: 14.0px Helvetica; margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px;">MF:</div><div style="font: 14.0px Helvetica; margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px;"><br /></div><div style="font: 14.0px Helvetica; margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px;">I write from 9 a.m. – 2 p.m. Monday through Friday from September through mid-June. I only leave my computer out of duress (truly, I do). I enjoy the summers with my family and use that time for rejuvenation of my mind.</div><div style="font: 14.0px Helvetica; margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px;"><br /></div><div style="font: 14.0px Helvetica; margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px;">LE:</div><div style="font: 14.0px Helvetica; margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px;"><br /></div><div style="font: 14.0px Helvetica; margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px;">4) Will there be more Molly Tanner books, with her using her unique gifts?</div><div style="font: 14.0px Helvetica; margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px;"><br /></div><div style="font: 14.0px Helvetica; margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px;">MF:</div><div style="font: 14.0px Helvetica; margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px;"><br /></div><div style="font: 14.0px Helvetica; margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px;">I’m surprised how many people have asked me that. I have begun writing a second Molly Tanner novel that delves more deeply into Erik’s character (Molly’s son). That book, however, is taking the back seat to my next two books, <i>Come Back to Me</i> (international love story/tragedy) and <i>Shades of Gray</i> (YA/women’s fiction crossover)</div><div style="font: 14.0px Helvetica; margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px;"><br /></div><div style="font: 14.0px Helvetica; margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px;">LE:</div><div style="font: 14.0px Helvetica; margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px;"><br /></div><div style="font: 14.0px Helvetica; margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px;">5) Are you currently working on another book?</div><div style="font: 14.0px Helvetica; margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px;"><br /></div><div style="font: 14.0px Helvetica; margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px;">MF:</div><div style="font: 14.0px Helvetica; margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px;"><br /></div><div style="font: 14.0px Helvetica; margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px;">Yes, I’m working on two (noted above). Here’s a brief summary of <i>Come Back to Me</i> (working title):</div><div style="font: 14.0px Helvetica; margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px;"><br /></div><div style="font: 14.0px Arial; margin: 5.0px 0.0px 5.0px 0.0px;">Tess Johnson has it all, Beau, her handsome photographer husband, a thriving business, and a newly discovered pregnancy. When Beau accepts an overseas photography assignment, Tess decides to wait to reveal her secret—only she’s never given the chance. Beau’s helicopter crashes in the desert.&nbsp;</div><div style="font: 14.0px Arial; margin: 5.0px 0.0px 5.0px 0.0px;">As Tess struggles to put her life back together and deal with the pregnancy she can no longer hide,&nbsp;a new client appears, offering more than just a new project.</div><div style="font: 14.0px Arial; margin: 5.0px 0.0px 5.0px 0.0px;">Meanwhile, two Iraqi women who are fleeing Honor Killings find Beau alive in the middle of the desert, his body ravaged. Suha, a doctor, and Samira, a widow and mother of three young children, nurse him back to health in a makeshift tent. Beau bonds with the women and children, and together, with the help of an underground organization, they continue their dangerous escape.</div><div style="font: 14.0px Arial; margin: 5.0px 0.0px 5.0px 0.0px;">What happens next is a test of loyalties, strength, and love.</div><div style="font: 14.0px Arial; margin: 5.0px 0.0px 5.0px 0.0px;"><br /></div><div style="font: 14.0px Arial; margin: 5.0px 0.0px 5.0px 0.0px;">Thank you so much for having me on your blog today. I’ve really enjoyed answering your questions, and I’m thrilled that you enjoyed <i>Chasing Amanda</i>. I’m happy to chat with your readers here on your blog, or they can shoot me an email: thinkhappygirl (at) yahoo (dot) com.&nbsp;</div><div style="font: 14.0px Helvetica; margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px

Tarot cards, developed in northern Italy, some 500 years ago, were used to play a new type of card game, similar to bridge, but with 21 of the special cards serving as permanent trumps, which could be played regardless of what suit was led, and outranked all the ordinary cards. This Game of Triumphs, as it was called, became extraordinarily popular, particularly among the upper classes, and spread through northern Italy and eastern France. As the game spread to new locales, changes were often made in the pictures, and also in the ranking of the trumps, which usually bore no numbers. In time, tarot spread south to Sicily and north to Austria, Germany, and the low countries.</P><P/><P>Centuries later, devotees of the occult arts in France and England encountered the tarot and saw mystical and magical meaning in the enigmatic symbolism of the cards. Their fascination with the cards led to the reputation tarot presently has as a divination tool and occult artifact.</P><P> A tarot deck consists of 78 cards...The Major Arcana or the Greater Secrets, number 22 and 56 of The Minor Arcana. some practitioners of tarot use only the Major Arcana..22 cards..as it is believed that these cards contain greater mysteries and spriritual depth.</P><P/><P>The Minor Arcana closely resemble the cards of a traditional deck of playing cards, with four suits: Cups(chalices), </P><P>Pentacles (coins or discs), Wands (Staves) and Swords.</P><P/><P>Each tarot suit has the cards numbered 1 to 10 as in the common playing deck and a page (jack), queen and king.

At this point, Lady Ellen has NO intention of writing books or having movies made of Persephane Pendrake's adventures turn into 'adult' or 'almost-adult' material.<br /><br />These books are fun adventures, for young adults and will stay that way.<br /><br />"When the time comes" says Lady Ellen "I may write fantasy for adults..but it will never be rated so that families can't enjoy them.<br /><br /><a href="http://www.lady-ellen.com/">Visit Lady Ellen's Website to download the first three chapters of the Persephane Pendrake first novel "Persephane Pendrake and the Cimaruta"</a><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2147234968895557929-1054680887924206372?l=ladyellen9.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Lady Ellenhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15176450277876436144noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2147234968895557929.post-90555814209890877812007-06-11T13:24:00.000-04:002007-06-11T13:35:19.316-04:00Lady Ellen has a home at MySpace and Squidoo.
