Must Love Books - 5. Author Spotlight: Lyra Selene, A FEATHER SO BLACK
play

03/12/24 • 27 min

Lyra Selene celebrates her release day for A FEATHER SO BLACK

This episode includes:

Inspirations from Swan Lake and Celtic mythology

Living in Ireland

Perseverance in publishing

Advice for writers

Lyra Selene was born under a full moon and has never quite managed to wipe the moonlight out of her eyes. She grew up on a steady diet of mythology, folklore, and fantasy, and now writes tall tales of twisted magic, forbidden love, and brooding landscapes. She lives in New England with her husband, daughter, and dog in an antique farmhouse that’s probably not haunted. She is the author of YA duology Amber & Dusk. A Feather So Black is her adult debut.
