Claire Luana grew up reading everything she could get her hands on and writing every chance she could. Eventually, adulthood won out, and she turned her writing talents to more scholarly pursuits, going to work as a commercial litigation attorney at a mid-sized law firm. While continuing to practice law, Claire decided to return to her roots and try her hand once again at creative writing.

She has written and published five series, the Moonburner Cycle, the Confectioner Chronicles, the Mythical Alliance, the Knights of Caerleon, with Jesikah Sundin, and the Faerie Race, with J.A. Armitage. She lives in Cle Elum, Washington with her husband and two dogs. In her (little) remaining spare time, she loves to hike, travel, binge-watch CW shows, a

Set measurable goals for yourself and track them. Writing a novel is like eating a watermelon: you do it one bite at a time.

Don't worry that what you are writing might be too similar to some other story already written. As Anna Quindlen said, "Every story has already been told." The point is, YOU'VE never written that story before. If you write the story you want to write, it will be unique.

Take a long term viewpoint and approach. We are an instant gratification society, and it's easy to get discouraged when you don't see instant results or success. But if you are truly want to be a writer, keep at it. Learn how to do it better. There is no special sauce, only hard work. So do the work, and little by little, you'll get there. (less)

Quotes by Claire Luana  (?)
Quotes are added by the Goodreads community and are not verified by Goodreads. (Learn more)

“Daughter of Azura. Daughter of Miina. Hear these truths. The moon cannot enslave the sun, nor make the day its mistress. Or victory shall spell defeat, a crimson sky its auspice. The sun and moon must shine as one, or all will be undone.”
Claire Luana, Moonburner

“The kings’s teeth were bared,”
Claire Luana, The Confectioner's Coup

“She was adrift in a sea of her own morality with Geisa’s twisted agenda as her only compass.”
Claire Luana, Sunburner
