In this episode of Talkin With Tasha, I chat with fantasy author Gabrielle Wanek about the inspiration behind her debut novel, Songs of Ash and Dawn. From mythology and video games to paranormal small-town stories, Gabrielle shares how she built her fantasy world and created her characters. She turned a passion project into the start of a 10-book series. We also talk audiobooks, fan fiction, strong female leads, and why fantasy is for everyone, even if you think it’s not.
