Helen, Author of Unwritten, Interview at CBA Unite 2017

Our takeaways from Helen’s interviews are:

  • It doesn’t take long to come up with a main character and plot line.
  • Don’t leave your story before you finish it.
  • Get your important work completed before sitting down to write.
  • Write until you run out of things to write, then take a break.
  • Start at the part of the book that you have in your mind vs. starting at the beginning.

“The Year is 2093. The world is grey and infected, unsafe for human in-habitation. We live sheltered, under The Veil. I live a life just like yours. Until the day that all changes.Who am I? I’m Anna. 

But who is this man who claims to know me…who knows more about me than I do? He’s shown me a glimpse beyond my world into one I have been told doesn’t exist. Into a world I’ve been told doesn’t even have the CHANCE to exist. Do I trust him? If I do it could cost me everything. My family, my friends. My life. He says he knows a different way, a better way. Do I risk everything to follow a stranger? Do I dare look with my own eyes? Do I risk being deceived? What if the life I am already living is the deception?”

From the ashen past and out of the present world the few and the outcast take a stand for what they believe. For what they have seen with their own eyes― and know to be true. 
These few know that the world has been lied to, lulled into a dangerous sleep. They’ve become a drowsy people, ignorant of The Monarch’s ominous design. Her memories stolen and her past rewritten, will Anna be able to lift the shroud of lies, to escape the confines of a life she has always known and accepted to be true? And if she does…will she survive to see the truth revealed?
