Buckle up for a whirlwind conversation with fantasy force-of-nature S.T. Fernandez! In this electrifying Literary Lines episode, GiGi Meier rides the creative waves with the author behind The Heir of Atlantis series as she reveals how she transforms 5:30am writing sessions into lush underwater kingdoms. Stephanie (as friends call her) opens up about the profound pivot of resurrecting a shelved manuscript from her twenties - now reimagined as a spicy, Puerto Rican-infused fantasy epic with five novels and three novellas in the works.

Between discussing her Legend of Gasparilla standalone and upcoming 2025 book conferences, Stephanie gets real about writing through grief after her mother's passing, why she effortlessly dances between first and third person perspectives, and how transitioning to work-from-home supercharged her world-building. The conversation crescendos with her answer to where she'd be if she could wave a magic wand - a moment that perfectly captures the ambition and heart driving this rising star of paranormal romance.

Perfect for fantasy lovers and writers alike, this interview is a masterclass in creative reinvention, cultural storytelling, and the kind of pre-sunrise dedication that builds empires - whether underwater or on the page.
