I wanted her to have some unique problems, sure, but I also wanted her to have very normal, human problems. I didn’t want her to be a vampire or a fairy or any other kind of wholly supernatural creature-even though I love reading those books don’t get me wrong. But I also knew I wanted her to be human. First off, I knew that I wanted Clara to be special I wanted her to be a modern-day, bona fide hero. Now all I had left to do was think of the why. So suddenly I had the who, the what, the where, and the when.

(For the record, usually in life it’s not a good sign when you’re hearing voices, but as a writer that’s how it usually first comes to me, a voice that wants to tell a story. The seed that became Unearthly was always Clara-I clearly started to hear the voice of this character, this girl who knew that it was her destiny to save a boy who she kept seeing in visions. Why did I choose to write about angels? This is a question I get a lot these days, and I always feel a little funny answering it, because the truth is, there was never a clear, definitive moment where I said to myself, “you know what? I’m going to write about angels!” It just sort of came about organically. What was it about angels that grabbed you as opposed to witches, warlocks, vamps etc?īrace yourself: I have a long answer for this one: Debuting Author Cynthia Hand wants to get the word out about about her first book Unearthly, along with give us a little insight in to her life.
