## Resource

In this week's Author Spotlight, Kim sat down with fantasy author Morgana Follmann to discuss her journey from childhood storyteller to published novelist, the inspiration behind her epic fantasy world, and the passion that drives her writing. Morgana shares the fascinating origins of Daughter of Molten Flames , a political fantasy filled with elemental powers, forbidden romance, family secrets, and a nation on the brink of civil war. We dive into the world-building process, the creation of her original language, the characters readers can't stop talking about, and the scene she believes absolutely must make it into a future adaptation. We also chat about the stories and creators that inspired her work, including Frozen, The Hobbit, The Legend of Korra, and more. Plus, Morgana shares her dream casting choices, advice for aspiring authors, and an exclusive look at what's next! If you love immersive fantasy worlds, complex characters, political intrigue, and stories filled with heart, this is an episode you won't want to miss.
