A LETTER FROM ESTHER MITCHELL
Welcome to my world. A lot of people ask me what it's like to be a writer, or how I come up with ideas. A writer's style, like their subject, is totally a matter of personality and experience. Some of us are gifted with blessed lives, which allow us to envision Happily Ever After not as a distant dream, but as a daily reality. Others, like myself, see the world through a realist's eyes. We've experienced pain and loss intensely, and come to realize that no Fairytale ending is perfect. |
As for how I come up with ideas... I was both blessed and cursed to have been given a vast range
of experiences to draw from. I've learned to embrace the darkness within, and to craft from it a
light that is even brighter for the darkness in which it was born.
They say to know a writer, you must first know her work. I don't know about everyone, but this
is certainly the case for me. So, I welcome you to take a peek into all the things that make me.
Take a walk into my most terrifying nightmares, and my most erotic fantasies. Walk with me as
I reveal what makes a woman a slave to her fears, and what elevates her to the status of Priestess.
Join me as I show you what makes a hero truly heroic... The answer might just surprise you.
Yours,
Esther Mitchell
