Today Summer
of Indie interviewed author Yezall Strongheart, author of fantasy-romance
novel, Windswept-War of the Elements.
Windswept-War
of the Elements.
Zylena is a girl
who controls the wind but her life is hardly her own. Leaving her small
village, she travels with her Element Mate to the city of Tivolty seeking her
father. The trip is...eventful. She is given into the care of an assassin to
protect her from slavery. That's only the beginning... She learns how to use her gift with the
tutoring of the dashing assassin. Who
will she choose in the end?
A colorful tale of romance,
fantasy, and adventure, it has something for even the most discerning reader.
When Summer
of Indie asked author Yezall Strongheart to tell us about herself and her
inspirations for writing, she told us that:
"My muse strikes me in the strangest
places. I find myself searching for something to write an idea on at the
strangest times. Other times, she dismisses me for days, even weeks at a time.
I love the fantasy genre because it entails so many things. It’s fun to spice it up a little as well. There should be something for everyone who reads my books. I live in the country of Texas with my inspiration, and our three furry babies, Princess Lily, Oscar, and MonkeyBoy."

After hearing more about her, we asked author Yezall
Strongheart a few follow up questions:
Q: What motivates you the most when you are writing?
A: It’s always about the book; the added
benefit is the money. I have given my
books away for years, now it’s time to sell a few.
Q: What the best
advice for the unpublished, just getting started?
A: Write some short
stories; join several of the author sites available, BookRix, GoodReads,
etc. Participate and get some reviews,
give some reviews. Learn how to form a
sentence properly!
Q: Out of all your
stories, which character would you like to be?
A: My passion
always lies with the one I’m working on.
It involves an elf girl and man/wolf.
The story is not run of the mill.
I find it exciting to be her! In
order to write about her I have to “wear her shoes.” (Coming Soon: Lair of the
Lycanthrope)
Q: Do you write in
other genres?
A: Yes for
published ones, I have written 2 erotica titles and a mild horror, they are
short stories. I have written countless
others that have never seen the light of day and some were just posted to
author sites.
