I've always felt that there are too many novels out there where a guy is the main character. Even when a female is a main character, she's either ditsy, air headed, overly sexualized, materialistic, are one or the other common stereotypical female types. I just want a story about a girl who isn't afraid to be what she wants to be without the influence of everyone around her. That's what I do, write stories with strong female leads, who might have the occasional week spell. :) My inspiration from this book came from a vivid dream I had one night about a girl with long flame like, flowing mauve hair and crystal butterfly wings half the size of her. I combined the dream with some real life issues I was facing at the time and came up with something really great! If you like my book, please feel free to tell your friends, family, and just any one else about it and leave a review.
