Indie Week: Day 4: Belle Malory
Lola Moori is hiding a secret she doesn't know she's keeping. She begins to remember someone. Someone important. His name is Gabe…and whatever they shared, she could feel that it was epic.
Yet it seems Gabe wanted her to forget him. Forever.
The curse that repressed Lola’s memories for the span of several lifetimes is coming undone. But unfortunately, she discovers that some secrets are better left buried.
I came up with the idea for Wanderlove while listening to
the song "Gypsy" by Shakira. I was intrigued by the idea of modern day
gypsies, how they lived, what they do, etc. My playlist was on random,
and immediately after the song gypsy finished playing, another inspiring
song came on. Ironically, it was the song from Twilight, called
"Flightless Bird". I kept hearing the line "Have I found you?" over and
over in my head. And I took it literally. I kept picturing this troubled
young man reuniting with the girl he loves. It was so heartfelt in my
head that I knew he couldn't have been waiting for her for just a few
years in an ordinary life. He must have been waiting for lifetimes to
feel that strongly. I wrote down the scene from the girl's perspective,
wondering how she would react. I realized then that these two characters
were both gypsies, wandering through time aimlessly. Somehow everything
else magically fell into place and Wanderlove was born.
