G - Interview with Author Diony George
Deirdra: When did you first know you wanted to be an author?
Diony: I discovered a love for writing in elementary school, but didn’t have the dream of becoming a published author until I was much older. It took five years from the time I began writing my first book until I held a printed copy of it in my hands.
Deirdra: What makes you passionate about writing?
Diony: There is a part of me I can only express through writing. Using the written word to create visual images and emotions in someone else--a reader, is an extremely fulfilling and challenging form of creating for me.
Deirdra: What was the pathway like for you to get your first book published?
Diony: Long and hard! sigh. There were moments when I felt like giving up, and times I got so sick of editing and rewriting my manuscript I felt close to screaming. But when I saw all the endless hours of hard work, sweat and tears, inside a beautiful cover with my name on it the feeling of awe and excitement was incredible. I had finally done it! It was pretty amazing to think it began with one word.
Deirdra: Were you ever discouraged along the way? If so, how did you deal with it?
