I’ll tell you what

Mythology/ mostly greek and Norse. A whole religion based on stories that people believed back then. Meaning if you sold people a believable story or fact they believe it's true so it becomes true in their minds.

Roald Dahl is the author that wrote my favorite childhood book BFG.

Veronica Roth the author of Divergent, helped me find books that I love which is the mostly dystopian world.

Alexandra Bracken wrote Lore my absolute favorite Greek mythology book.

Karen M. Mcmanus the author of One of Us is Lying gave me the classic breakfast club with murder, it's like the unknown cookie recipe that you never knew was an actual recipe. These authors helped me realize that if I had a story to tell, that I could tell it however I wanted it to be. Other stories give me ideas while the music flows in my ears giving me the motivation to continue the story.
