🎙️ From Dreams to Pages: An Interview with Author Vanessa Kramer
This week on Page to Picture, we sit down with indie author Vanessa Kramer, the creative mind behind the Great Divide and Great Desolation series. From being inspired by her second-grade teacher to crafting emotional, dream-fueled stories that make readers feel everything, Vanessa opens up about her unique writing process and the emotional rollercoaster of storytelling.
She spills on writing dark fantasy, building unforgettable characters, and that spicy waterfall scene fans can’t stop talking about. 👀 We also dive into the challenges of social media, why “post and ghost” might be the way to go, and the emotional toll of saying goodbye to a beloved series (spoiler: the epilogue made her husband cry).
Plus — Vanessa teases her next big project: a creature feature horror! 🐾 From The Wedding Singer to The Shining, they chat about their favorite movies, adaptations, and everything in between.
