Sister's Lament by Marie Kammerer Franke

Are there any particular authors that have influenced how you write and, if so, how have they influenced you?ĭouglas Adams is definitely a huge influence, I am big Hitchhiker’s fan. We all know how important it is for writers to read.

They are completely fictitious, except for Aylin, she tends to be snarky or as sarcastic as I can be at times. Those were the most fun to write.Īre your characters entirely fictitious or have you borrowed from real world people you know? I also enjoyed writing it as a conversation, there are parts when Aylin, our heroine, talks to you the reader. I’m an avid horror fan, so writing grotesque scenes and violence came the easiest. Throughout the entire series I keep reminding myself that Grandma would be reading this, so the sexual content was less prevalent than was originally was intended. Were there any parts of the book where you struggled? I started their bedtime story “Once upon a time,” and my youngest responded with “THE WORLD BLOWDED UP!” As for editing and publishing-that is still a work in progress for each book.įrom a 3 year old. The entire 4 books series took just over a year to write. When they grew into adults so did Aylin and her story, and that’s when I decided to write it all down. This series was a bedtime story I used to tell my boys when they were small children.

In trying to help solve one mystery Aylin starts a war that spans galaxies. The human race is more machine than man, and something in that technology is killing them. It follows Aylin Morgan a woman from our present as she is taken 40,000 years into the future to help save mankind. Sister’s Lament is the 2nd book in the ACN Series.

Without Catch to save the day I’m afraid my mouth will be too dry to scold our future children into peace. But I can’t speak, Eara’s war has cost us all the water on Elpis. And if we’re breaking down time, it was seconds after stepping into this future that I, Aylin Morgan, started a war.įour years later and Sister Elara is suddenly a General in war spanning galaxies. When you think about it, it was only minutes ago that Catch stole me from our present. It really wasn’t that long ago that I was kidnapped from Earth.
