April 26th, 2025 wHAT INSPIRED aURORA: princess of the Mythical Land?

What inspired me for all the characters of the book, well it was inspired a little from my own high school life and with alot of imagination of meeting people who are similar to the characters that are in the Aurora: Princess of the Mythical land.

As written in the back of the book, I mentioned that I am Singaporean. In Singapore, we have a lot of people of different ethnicities, Malay, Chinese, indian, but sometimes I wanted to meet more people in the European continent or more east asian or south asian. It was also inspired by watching many cartoons and western shows, which inspired me to ask; "Hmm? What if I can make a story of friendships full of a mixture of different ethnicities and cultures?"  I want more inclusivity in my characters because I live in a country that is full of multiracial and multicultural and somehow it was explored in this story and my other story, Destiny of the Butterfly Necklace. 

If anyone has any other thoughts or shares about stories that you read full of inclusivity or even more stories about friendship, let me know
