Hi! First of all, I wanted to say how much I adore your books. I'm currently writing my own and was wondering if you had any advice on how to write from the perspective of someone who is being mind-controlled? Thank you!
Jennifer A. Nielsen
Cool question. If I were doing that, I would show in clear terms the MC's own thoughts, their realization that something is pressing in on their mind, their attempt to fight against it - a blurring of the back and forth, and then the takeover with a distinct voice for their control. Good luck!

hiya! :) I have a few questions: 1. I've heard that you'll get a character's voice in your head and it helps you with personalities, etc, what do you mean by that? 2. Where do you get your inspiration? 3. How do you become published? 4. Any inspiration or advice? I hope to become an author one day, also dont feel pressured to answer!
