Surface by Tiffany Daune
Publication: February, 2013
YA Paranormal
Premise:
Bound
to the water bound to land, a Siren’s soul will never be safe on either
side of the ocean’s surface. Hidden beneath the rolling waves lies the
secret to Theia’s past and as she unveils each haunting truth, she
realizes the last seventeen years of her life have been a lie. Now,
drawn into a mysterious new world and with nowhere to turn, Theia must
place her trust in Luc, a beautiful boy who stops her heart with each
dazzling smile, but even his unearthly charm can’t hide the truth—he
has secrets— dark secrets binding him to his world—an underwater world
where Theia will never belong—a world determined to destroy her soul.
Interview: Tiffany Daune
What inspired
you to write Surface?
I've always
loved mermaids, even the singing ones. I really wanted to explore the darker
side of the mermaids I grew up with and at the same time introduce a crossover
of other water beings into our world. I love when fantasy blends with reality.
Is there
anything you find particularly challenging in your writing?
Staying
focused. I am the most distracted person in the world. If you called me up and
said 'hey do you want to go to a balloon animal making workshop?' I'd so be
there.
Who is your
favorite author and what is it that really strikes you about their work?
Wow, to
pick one, would be crazy, but if I must, I'd have to say JK Rowling. She is the
queen of imagination. She draws every age of reader into her world and
transforms the reading experience as if the book was written solely for you.
What is
your favorite Quote?
Happiness
can be found, even in the darkest of times if one only remembers to turn on the
light. ~ Albus Dumbledore
What
do you do in your free time?
I'm
obsessed with going to the movies. If I had more time, I would be there every
week.
Do you have
anything specific that you want to say to your readers?
Always
dream big, believe in those dreams, and when they come true, seek to inspire
others so they may spark the light within themselves.
About the author
Tiffany
Daune doesn't get why people want to grow up or why anyone would ever
stop eating candy. Her purse is filled with books, lip gloss and a few
pieces of Lego bricks. She writes best with a dish of chocolate chips on
hand and finds licorice makes a better straw than plastic.
She lives on an island and believes mermaids may be raiding her candy stash, thoughshe hasn't caught them, yet.
Surface is her first novel and pairs well with gummy sharks.
