Meet Dakota from The Fears of Dakota Series
This is an interview with the fictional protagonist from my
YA / New Adult series.
This is an entertaining way to introduce you to the main character while telling you more information about the books,
A RIPPLE OF FEAR and FEARS OF DARKNESS
A RIPPLE OF FEAR and FEARS OF DARKNESS
1) What is your name? Where are you from?
My name is Dakota and though I was born on a military base in
Spokane, Washington, I was raised in Minneapolis, Minnesota.
2) When and where is the story set, Dakota?
Our story begins in Minnesota and that is where the book A
RIPPLE OF FEAR takes place. However, we
are forced to find a new home in the mountains in FEARS OF DARKNESS. Eventually, we end up in the Wasatch-Uinta
Mountains in Utah.
3) What should we know about you?
My parents are a little different than most. My dad is a S.E.R.E. instructor for the US
Air Force and my mom works for the Veterans Affairs. I guess some might consider them to be “doomsday
preppers” of one kind or another, but in truth, they’re just survivalist. They enjoy living off the land and have
taught their naturalistic views to my older sisters, Georgia and Carolina and
me.
I two wonderful best
friends, Chris and Rae and we are very close.
Though Rae is more like a sister to me, Chris is the love of my
life! In A RIPPLE OF FEAR I struggle
with trying to transition from friend to lover and in FEARS OF DARKNESS, I
cannot imagine living without him!
4) What is your personal goal?
I just want to go to college, marry Chris, start a family, and
enjoy life. I just want to live in peace
and be happy. Isn’t that what everyone
really wants?
5) What is the main conflict? What messes up your
life?
People are so afraid of the unknown and they think they see
signs of the end of the world or society everywhere they look. They become frightened by interpretations of
doomsday prophecies and terrorist activities.
The advent of the “doomsday preppers” doesn’t help and when a solar
flare knocks out sections of the global power grid, making it impossible for
people to access banking or purchase goods, some people jump into action,
implementing their doomsday plans as though it really is the end of the
world! It throws America into chaos and
war ensues, changing everything about my life.
6) Is there a working title for your story, and can we read more
about it?
Yes. A RIPPLE OF FEAR is
Book One and FEARS OF DARKNESS is Book Two in this young adult/new adult
suspense thriller and romance series. Both
of the novels in The Fears of Dakota series by Creativia author, J.M. Northup
are currently available in both ebook and paperback editions!
