Inspired by a childhood roaming across Canada in a van, L.E. Sterling is the author of multiple novels spanning romance, fantasy, science fiction, dystopian fiction and YA. Sterling holds a B.A. and M.A. in creative writing, and draws heavily on her Doctorate degree in literary magic to create stories of fathomless depths, lyrical complexity, and arcane wonder. She lives in the French-speaking suburbs of Montreal, Quebec, where she enjoys the romantic, lost-in-translation life of an anglo ex-pat.

The state of our environment, all the cool stuff I've learned from some of the world's top scientists. I was even inspired by some of the research I completed for my PhD. But I was also inspired by a family story - my great grandmother, who was a twin and who 'forgot' her own identity and took on her twin's when she was separated from her family as a very small child. She lived her whole life with her twin's identity - and I wanted to know what it was like to be that close to someone... so Lucy and Margot Fox were born! (less)

There is the classic fictional couple that I keep turning back to: Lizzie Bennet and Mister Darcy (Pride and Prejudice, Jane Austen). There is something so remarkable about these two. Lizzie is just so darned smart and strong, and though Darcy is an ass, he's also kind of remarkable. Then there is Sookie Stackhouse and Erik Northman (Sookie Stackhouse novels, Charlaine Harris). Like Elizabeth Bennet, Sookie has this really clear, independent spirit that I love so much. Her counterpart Erik is bizarre, hilarious, so wrong and yet so right, and therefore, so hot! And finally, I absolutely love Kate Daniels and Curran "Beast Lord" from the Kate Daniels novels (Ilona Andrews). Kate is a thrilling character -- incredibly strong and smart, yet so vulnerable. I love how Curran is outrageous with her during their "mating rituals," how he is driven by his instincts, in the same way that Erik is driven by his. This makes them imperfect characters--they show their flaws, and I love that about them. I suppose what all of the women characters have in common is their rich intelligence and independence (and in Kate's case, her bloodthirsty way with a sword). (less)
