Advice from IR Approved Author Ariel Grace

author interviewENTWINED DIMENSIONS (Eura Trilogy, Book 1) received a 4+ star review, making it an IndieReader Approved title.

Following find an interview with author Ariel Grace:

What is the name of the book and when was it published?

Entwined Dimensions, Book 1 of the Eura Trilogy — published March 3, 2026, on the night of a total lunar eclipse.

What’s the book’s first line?

“Lightning didn’t typically behave like a fizzling bad first date, even here, but today wasn’t a typical day.”

What’s the book about? Give us the “pitch”.

Scientist Daria accidentally tears a hole in the multiverse and discovers the rift isn’t just a physics problem, it’s a prophecy. Joined by a Fae named Caelan and a cute glow-bug named Spitz, she journeys through the space where human and Fae worlds collide, navigating quantum physics, found family, and the question of where she truly belongs.

What inspired you to write the book? A particular person? An event?

I’ve spent most of my adult life navigating the space between the rational and the mysterious, between systems thinking and the deeper architectures of spiritual exploration. Entwined Dimensions became a way to hold all of that in a story. What surprised me was how much encoded itself without conscious direction. I came to understand the book less as something I wrote and more as something that came through me.

What’s the main reason someone should really read this book?

Because it meets you where you are. You can read it as pure portal fantasy adventure, or follow the thread into deeper questions about reality, meaning, identity and connection.

What’s the most distinctive thing about the main character?  Who—real or fictional—would you say the character reminds you of? 

Daria is a little cynical and playful, she doesn’t abandon her logic when things stop making sense; she expands it.

Is this the first book you’ve written?

No, I have a hand-painted graphic novel, Kora Kelly and the Life Keeper, that came first. But Entwined Dimensions is the first speculative fiction comedy metaphysical book and my debut into full length novels.

What do you do for work when you’re not writing?

I lead UX and product for a technology company.

What’s a great piece of advice that you can share with fellow indie authors?

Launch for meaning, not metrics. I launched Entwined Dimensions on a total lunar eclipse because that alignment mattered to the book. Choosing that over a strategically optimal Tuesday meant the launch carried real intention and that energy is still moving.

Is there something in particular that motivates you (fame? fortune?)

I believe certain stories carry a frequency that reaches the right people at exactly the right moment. I’m not writing for fame. I’m writing because I believe the Eura Trilogy is doing a particular kind of repair work in the world and that it will find the people who need it. Also because I had a really wild ride creating it.
