Author Interview with Dystopian Fantasy Writer A.E. Faulkner (Writers on Their Writing Process)
Author interview with fantasy writer A.E. Faulkner, a talented Young Adult (YA) Dystopian Fantasy author. We discussed her impactful series, The Nature Fury, which tackles the pressing issue of climate change without being too preachy. A.E. Faulkner has also contributed to The Gaia Awakening Climate Change Anthology, and her characters are so compelling that another author has asked to continue one of their stories in his own work.

The Nature Fury is set to be a five-part series, with the first two books already available. It follows teenage girls as they strive to find hope in a world where Mother Nature is fighting back. The first book in the series, Darkness Falls, sets the stage for this thrilling saga.
