Ep 20: Chatting w/Elicia Hyder
Had the pleasure of meeting Soul Summoner Series author Elicia Hyder @ Space Coast Book Lovers Con in June 2021.
Join us as we chat about her books, the writing process and the importance of knowing when to say ENOUGH.
About Elicia:
In the dawning age of scrunchies and “Hammer Pants,” a small-town musician with big-city talent discovered she was expecting her third child, a staggering eleven years after her second. From that moment on, Susie Waldrop referred to her daughter Elicia as “the blessing,” which is Southern-speak for “the accident,” albeit a pleasant one.
In true youngest-sibling fashion, Elicia lived up to the birth-order standard by being fun-loving, outgoing, self-centered, and rebellious throughout her formative years. She excelled academically—a feat her sister attributes to her being the only child who was breastfed—but abandoned her studies to live in a tent in the national forest with her dogs: a Rottweiler named Bodhisattva and a pit bull named Sativa. The ensuing months were very hazy.
In the late 90’s, during a stint in rehab, Elicia was approached by a prophet who said, “Someday you will write a book.”
She was right.
Now a firm believer in the prophetic word, Elicia Hyder is a full-time bestselling writer of urban fantasy, romance, and women’s fiction. Her novels have been optioned for TV and film, and are available in print, eBook, and audio all over the world.
She lives (in a real house) in middle Tennessee with her husband, five children, and two (sensibly named) dogs.
