Dragonfly's Mist: Book Two Awakening By: Brandy L. Cunningham



Dragonfly’s Mist: Book Two
Awakening
(The Five Draoidhs 2)
By: Brandy L Cunningham

This is book two of the series. I personally decided to read them both first, to see which one I wanted to review first. I am writing my first review on the second one, because it has only one review up on Amazon, and needs more love. 

This series, is quite fascinating if you love stories that leave you to use your imagination as you read. Which is something I personally like to do.

Sharlet is the main character, and she is a friendly girl who likes to take care of her friends, and also check out and enjoy the world around her. She also doesn’t let life and its obstacles get in her way, even though they continually try to.

Eventually Sharlet and her friends begin to learn that one of their own friends, is not who they seem to be. Soon, they begin to wonder, from whence this person came, and what was the real story? This part becomes a little mysterious.

The part I enjoy is most, is discovering new places, new creatures, and then the mystery and romance behind everything, and wondering in which direction everything will lead. As you follow along, you feel like you are right there with these characters, as one of their friends, and they are sharing secrets with you, questioning you, and sometimes you whisper answers as you are readin....   "No wait, don’t trust her!” It can’t be helped! The stories just pull you in!

I loved reading this story, and enjoy the writing of Ms. Cunningham, and if you haven’t already, you should check out her work. She is a five-star writer! I was and still am quite impressed with her work. When someone can make you feel like you are right there with them in their writing, they know what they are doing, and this writer, does just that. Excellent material here. I feel it is worthy of any age group to enjoy the writing done by Ms. Cunningham! 

Here are my questions for Brandy:
1.What made you write this book and how long did it take you?
 I originally wrote DRAGONFLY'S MIST when I was sixteen. I loved getting immersed in books, and I thought it would be cool to have people read something I had written. It took me a year, and then another year when I revised it as an adult.


2. Do you have any photos or descriptions of the characters?
I keep detailed logs about my characters personalities and looks.


3. What all have you written? 
I have written four novels and published through Amazon. Southern Wind, Dragonfl's Mist books one and two, and Laying Down Roots.


4. What are you working on now?
I am currently finishing up a paranormal romance novel, the first in a series as well as working on the third book for Dragonfly's Mist.


5. What are your thoughts of those leaving 1 star reviews?
It can be discouraging to get a 1 star review, but I have not been able to get my books professionally edited yet, and there will always be some who do not like my work for one reason or another. If the reviewer leaves a reason why they felt that way I try to use it to make my work better.


6. What motivates you to write?
My family. I want my children to see I am following my life-long dream so that they will grow up to chase their own. 


7. Who is your favorite writer and why?
This is a hard question. I have so many. I would have to say my favorite is Judith Mcnaught. I read her book, A Kingdom of Dreams when I was in high school, and after that my reading obsession only got worse.

8. Where is your favorite happy place?
The forest and the beach. I always feel more in touch with my creativity around nature.


9. What are your hobbies?
Riding horses, painting, spending time with my family, reading, camping and music.


10. Do you have any rituals you like to do while writing? If so- what are they?
Sometimes. I always start in the morning after my kids are off to school. First step is coffee of course. If I'm working on a darker novel I will sometimes put on some dark music. 

11. Please share with us your social media and book links:


12. Anything to add: I write books because I love it. I have always dreamed of one day walking into a bookstore and seeing my books there. I love to see people reading my work and I always love to hear from other authors as well as readers.
