1. Where did the idea for Talisman of El come from?

Well, to be honest, I have no idea where the story came from. It sort of just happened – just popped into my head. I thank my lucky stars every day. It started with just the character of Charlie Blake. He appeared to me as a young orphan who had a story to tell, and we just took it from there. There have been two versions of Talisman Of El. When I first started writing the book in June 2008, it wasn’t anything like what it is today. It was a completely different story. Fast forward two years later; I started on the second and final version of Talisman Of El, which is the story that is going to be released on May 20, 2012.
 
I will say that there were a few things that helped develop the story. I read an article a while back about a farmer who vanished in front of his two children and was never seen again. He just disappeared into thin air. I found the story fascinating, and it made me question a few things about the strange things that happen in the world – things no one seems to have an answer for. So, I took that thought and soon, the world of Arcadia was born. The story took on a life of its own. Writing this book has been a great adventure for me, and I hope readers will also enjoy the journey.
 
2. What is your favorite part in your book (w/o spoilers!!)?

For me, favourite means the part in my book I enjoyed writing the most. Without giving anything away, I would have to say my favourite part takes place in …

Synopsis:

WHAT IF YOUR WHOLE LIFE WAS A LIE?

One Planet.

Two Worlds.

Population: Human … 7 billion.
Others … unknown.

When 14-year-old Char­lie Blake wakes up sweat­ing and gasp­ing for air in the mid­dle of the night, he knows it is hap­pen­ing again. This time he wit­nesses a bru­tal mur­der. He’s afraid to tell any­one. No one would believe him … because it was a dream. Just like the one he had four years ago – the day before his dad died.

Char­lie doesn’t know why this is hap­pen­ing. He would give any­thing to have an ordi­nary life. The prob­lem: he doesn’t belong in the world he knows as home.

He belongs with the others.

Excerpt from the Guest Post:
 
Where The Strange Gets Stranger by Alecia Stone

 
When I first started writing Talisman Of El, I thought I was writing a simple story about a young boy who was trying to find his place in the world after the death of his parents. Almost four years and a few edits later, I realise the story has taken on a life of its own. What started as a story about acceptance evolved into a story about destiny and a race to save mankind from a fate far worse than death.
 
Many factors influenced Talisman Of El and, believe it or not, most of those factors were based on real life stories. I’m from the Caribbean, and if you didn’t know, strange things happen in hot places. Maybe it’s the weather. I don’t know …
