What is your favorite fantasy movie of all time? Give us a bit of the backstory about why you loved it.

47 Ronin is definitely one of my favorite fantasy movies of all time. Wow, the storyline is remarkable; the graphics with the dragon, and the cave scene with the demons, and the wolf, are breathtaking, and one reason I love it so much is the poor man, who was a seen as an outcast, is the very man who saves the kingdom.

Little people can do great things. That is what I love about epic, medieval, dark fantasy. One day, with luck, I will be able to write something as spectacular as that.

ABOUT ALETHA

Aletha Wade is a South African-based debut fantasy writer. Her genre-building (dark-epic-medieval-fantasy series), dystopian fantasy, fairytale retellings (for a more mature audience) will one day be published novels she will proud to share with the world. Aletha always has more than a few projects on the go. It drives her crazy, but she won’t have it any other way. Aletha, her family, and furry, four-legged child live on a smallholding.

My humble beginnings.

I spent my youth in Vanderbijlpark, a town that grew up around Iscor, a large steel company. I didn’t go off to college, I was more concerned about living on my own. After high school, I began a succession of rather horrible jobs that have changed my outlook on life. I sold medicines and cosmetics, became a secretary, a marketing coordinator, slaved for a few NGO’s; I even was a waitress to supplement my income. All the while, I wrote scary children’s tales for my sons. Later, my yarns became scribbled notes that filled every drawer of my home.

At all times, though, I was single-minded in my own quest to write full time and one day make money so I could stop working in the corporate environment (toxic for gentle souls) for a salary. So I continued working at my various careers, and then finally writing, (and the joy it brings bubbling in my heart), became a larger and larger motivation to quit. I resigned from my job, and now I blissfully write full time.

I am super grateful every day that I get to do what I want to do, and I remain positive I’ll soon make a living from my novels. Whenever the pressures life makes me irritable, I just think back to the time I worked for a woman who wanted me to cut her lunch into bite-size pieces, and I suddenly feel much happier.

Heaps happier.
