{Author Fest 2013} Amy Freeman @AmyVedunyWriter




Amy is a writer, wife, mother and dancer- mesmerized by the endless potential of the human spirit. She lives in St. Augustine, Florida with her husband and the youngest of her five children. DREAM CAST FOR "SHINE, the Knowing ones"- Annable Odette as Sam, Liam Hemsworth as Trin, and Chris Hemsworth as Anvil and Ashbel Stolchev.




Shine: The Knowing Ones
"We walk among you. Wherever your lives take you within this world, we are there, and we are many. We are not superior, we simply know more...far more...and none of you are safe." Sam has always had the gift of reading auras and seeing future events. But since beginning college, her gifts are strengthening-becoming more foreboding. Dark visions she can't explain haunt her daily. She senses danger but doesn't know why. Meeting gorgeous Olympic swimming star Trin Kosolov, who shares her extra sensory abilities, only seems to intensify the imminent peril. Sam soon discovers she was born with an identity she never knew she had and finds herself fighting for her life as she and Trin struggle to save humanity from an evil that could ultimately destroy them all.



Interview with Amy Freeman
How did you get interested in writing this particular genre?

I am fascinated with the untapped power of the human spirit. I believe we are capable of creating change and causing havoc merely with our thoughts and intentions. I believe in good and evil. I believe we can fall victim to evil, allowing it to control our thoughts and decisions, or stand up and exercise our right to choose what path we will take and what we will contribute to the world.

What's a typical working day like for you? When and where do you write? Do you set a daily writing goal?

I write several hours a day. I am also involved in many online writing groups and social media. Being organized and sticking to a schedule is paramount to getting anything done. I try to get as much accomplished as I can while my son is at school and my husband is at work. But inspiration comes when it wants to and sometimes I wake in the middle of the night or pull off the road with a pen and any scrap of paper I can find to record the eureka moment that just came out of nowhere. :0)

What’s the best thing about being an author?

Sharing my stories with everyone and meeting the coolest people. Writers are choice individuals- so creative, unique and so kind! And let's face it- without our readers we can't go anywhere. Your fans are you life's blood! Appreciate them!

What advice would you give aspiring writers?

Do not quit. The road to publication can be long and frustrating. If writing is what you want to do, you are just as capable as anyone else. Write. Read. Revise, share, critique and never, never quit!

Who would play the cast?

If the SHINE series were to be optioned for film I would want Annable Odette or Megan Fox to play Sam. I would want Liam Hemsworth to play Trin and Chris Hemsworth to Play Anvil and Ashbel Stolchev. They are both large, beautiful men and they are brothers in real life making for amazing on screen brotherhood chemistry. :0)
