Eliza Holly

Biography

My name is Eliza Holly, and I have been writing since I could pick up a pencil.

When I was young, I read books upon books upon books. While my classmates struggled with picture stories, I was already finishing thirty-plus chapter prints. I don't know when I wrote my first story- it has been too long to call to memory- but one of my most-asked questions is this: what inspired you to write your first book?

My answer: instinct. I started to write because it felt natural. I continue to this day to type, sometimes to the point of annoying others with my constant new ideas and plot lines and nose-to-the-screen stature I gained.

I am currently writing a sci-fi novel named "Dreams." The summary can be found below.

"The world isn't alone. There are dreams. And dreams are your gateway to freedom."

Lucy Torch was born strange. She was thought of as crazy and mentally unstable, always talking of other worlds and space and universes. She claimed she knew of the gateways to a new life, one not tainted by death and destruction in the world they live in... But at a price.

The universe is a complicated thing, one full of death and slowly breaking apart. Planet Earth is falling away, crumbling and being erased around her life, and Lucy Torch must find a way to save herself and everybody else before it is too late.

Smashwords Interview

What do you read for pleasure?
I will read almost anything! Most of the books I own I have stumbled upon in the library or on Amazon.com. My favorite genres are fantasy and science fiction, and I tend to steer away from teenage fiction.

I don't think there's a book I've disliked. Whether they're classic, new, or unexplored, it's almost a promise that I'll find something I love about it!
When did you first start writing?
I have been writing since I could pick up a pencil. Growing up, I didn't even know I was a good writer. I did it simply out of happiness. As I grew older, however, I was told more and more that I had a talent for words.
