'I’m so happy that people like this line, because I was so unsure about whether or not it would work when I wrote it.' Are you kidding me - that has to be one of my favourite lines in the whole story! And one of the most romantic lines I've ever read of al
Thank you! You know, I know that everyone loved it in hindsight and on a certain unattributed post, the quote has gotten over 7,000 notes.
When I wrote it, I really liked the line itself. I partly got it from Revelations, and after I wrote it, I kind of sat back and thought… This works for me but is this going to work for everyone else? Is this way way way too much? Should I dial it back? Am I expressing what I really want to get across or is it going to ring hollow?
But I went ahead and included it anyway because it just felt right in its context. And next thing I know it’s the most oft-quoted line from my books, both in comments and reviews, and online. I took a gamble and it paid off. And I’m glad you like it too :)

Receiver of many
Just ran into your book Receiver of Many on Amazon and I finished it in a day! I absolutely loved it and I just had to get the sequel Destroyer of light as well. You are so incredibly talented! I’m recommending this book to all my friends and my sister who also happens to live Greek mythology.

I’d love to watch a tv show about the Greek gods....
I’d love to watch a tv show about the Greek gods. Not a documentary, but a legitimate television show with plot-line and character development as they portrayed every classic myth side-by-side the ones we hardly know of. And maybe with a few jokes here and there, so I could tune in every Tuesday to watch Zeus destroy the world with his penis and all of the other god’s flipping out trying to save it.
@kata-chthonia perhaps you could get on this? ;) I would legit PAY to see you do a tv show! Hehe <3
Yeah, I would love for someone to legit pay me to do too lol.

My friend got me Receiver of Many for Christmas and I just want to say I love it so much. It's so well written and every now and then there is just such a powerful line that I have to put the book down and go "wow"
I’m so glad you like it! Thank you :D
Just FYI, the sequel to Receiver of Many, Destroyer of Light, came out on March 20, and is available for purchase pretty much wherever books are to be found for sale online.
