Eriqa-Queen

The logo means DRAGON. It is the soul, the consciousness, the one we truly are.

The stories are not based on drama and conflict, but loaded with a deep understanding of the human and beyond and hints at transformative choices in life.
 If you think dragons are a myth, you’ll learn otherwise in these stories. Furthermore, you will learn about the elves, and discover an entire world you didn’t know existed right under your nose.
 In her search for material for books, Luzi stumbles upon many secrets and old wisdom, signs of lost ancient knowledge. When searching for truth, one may find love and friendship that one has been looking for, even in places abandoned many years ago, or in realms not of this world.
 This series gives you a unique opportunity to enjoy incredible adventures. You gain so-called lost knowledge, in a world that tries to wake up from its long slumber, but is distracted by the ‘noise’ from the same world. The dragons are awakening, not to destroy us, but to guide us in our quest for a deeper understanding of our place in creation.

Eriqa Queen

I start with an idea, a working title. This idea has an ethereal, but dormant counterpart. As I put words, often the title, into my manuscript, the idea becomes active. This creates a sparkle of consciousness in the imaginative realm. This is how all creations start. This is intuitive, non-mental writing. My mind doesn’t create the story and is often surprised what is put into the manuscript. The sparkle becomes a light as it draws more ideas in. Characters emerge with their own personalities and the first contact are very special. Again, it is not a mind thing, but a ‘heart’ thing. I connect and feel the character. Sometimes I know (like in knowingness which isn’t a mind thing), the character is there, but it takes some time or the right conditions in the plot, before it opens and joins the plot. It is quite fascinating. If the story doesn’t seem to flow, I need to wait for the flow or make another connection for a part ready to flow when I tap into it. You can imagine possibility bubbles coming floating towards the light. If they haven’t docked, they are not accessible. The story is ready for proofreading when the light gives me the sense of it being ready.

I tell people there is more to their lives. I use modern fantasy with visionary and metaphysical genre to do that. I use present tense and mostly dialogues. My primary person (antagonist) is the first-person dialogue, and I do not switch into other characters’ minds and feelings, they must show themselves through actions. This way, it presents my descriptions in the present tense in ‘dialogue’ with the reader. The reader and the ‘writer’ experience the story together. The ‘writer’ does not know more than the reader at any point in the story.
