Today I like you to meet Miranda
Brock, American Author of the novel “SOULSDISCOVERED”. From an early age Miranda Brock has always loved fantasy and adventure
everything. Since she doesn't live in a world of enchanting powers, mythical
beasts, and things unbelievable she has decided to write about them. Born in
southern Illinois, where she still resides with her husband and two children,
she grew up running through the woods, playing in creeks, and riding horses.
What
started out as writing poetry grew into short stories and eventually led to her
first novel “Souls Discovered”.
Miranda lives in the country where she finds inspiration in the simplicity and
beauty around her. With the help of coffee and good music she writes whenever
she gets a chance

Spin away
with young Autumn as she finds a seemingly innocuous gold necklace on her
family's farm and inadvertently uncovers her destiny as The Keeper. Autumn's
discovery of the necklace activates the 'Window' and alerts both good and evil
forces to her whereabouts. Autumn's life is changed forever when she loses her
family, but is saved from the brutal attack of enigmatic enemies called
Dehmons.
Seven Searchers who have awaited her arrival come to her aid, save her
life and eventually convince her of their mutual destiny. Unbreakable bonds of
friendship and love are formed between Keeper and Searchers, and this bond
unlocks power to search out and kill the dead-eyed evil Dehmon souls.
Miranda when did you first
start writing?
I first
started to seriously get into writing when I was around twelve. I started
writing poetry and it evolved from there. I took a creative writing elective in
high school and that really boosted my passion for writing.
Was being a writer
something you always aspired to be?
I've always
enjoyed reading and writing but having a writing career wasn't something I
seriously considered until after college. I love horses and studied equine
science in college. I wanted to get into equine genetics but writing was
something I always came back to. Writing was something I was doing and going back constantly so eventually
I figured since it was something I loved so much I may as well go for it.
What would you like to
achieve as an Author?
I would love
to write books that people remember, books that impact their lives. I want my
books to be an escape. It's one reason I love fantasy. If I can take someone to
a different world, even for a little while, then this while thing is worth it.
What is your best advice
based on your own experiences so far to other Authors?
Support your
fellow authors. I've found that most of the time if you help someone out,
they'll help you back. Especially in the indie community of authors. We're all
in this together so supporting others supports you, as well.
What genres do you read and
review to support your fellow Authors?
Fantasy, and
it's sub-genres, are my favorite. I also really enjoy science fiction and the
occasional romance.
A quote by you or your Life
motto?
"Do not
go where the path may lead, go instead where there is no path and leave a
trail."- Ralph Waldo Emerson. I have so many favorites but this one really
speaks to me. I'm the kind of person that likes to try things in my own way,
which is one reason I self-published. Everyone was always telling me I needed
to find an agent and a publisher and I thought Nope, I'm going to try this my
way.
Thank you very much Miranda. It was my pleasure to
have you on my blog. I hope many readers will discover your book. Keep up the
great work and all the best. Lots of love, Lily
