We’re excited to introduce you to the always interesting and insightful Lali A. Love. We hope you’ll enjoy our conversation with Lali below.

Hi Lali, thanks for joining us today. Can you talk to us about how you learned to do what you do?

Learning the craft of writing from my perspective feels like embarking on an endless journey of self-discovery and artistic growth. It demands a constant thirst for knowledge, a willingness to dive deep into the realms of my imagination, and an unwavering dedication to the written word. Like a seasoned artisan refining their techniques over time, I immerse myself in the intricacies of language, delving into its rhythms, structures, and subtleties. Words become my tools, akin to painting on a canvas, allowing me to construct vibrant landscapes of emotion and heart-centered thought. However, this path is strewn with challenges; it requires resilience in the face of rejection, persistence in the pursuit of perfection, and a sharp awareness of the ever-evolving literary landscape. Yet, through this journey, I not only uncover the power of my voice but also realize the profound impact my words can have to inspire and uplift others, forging connections that transcend the confines of time and space.

I have also learned that the process of writing a novel and birthing a bestseller book begins with inspiration, followed by the meticulous construction of the plot, characters, and the world they inhabit. With unwavering dedication and perseverance, I navigate through the labyrinth of doubts and writer’s blocks, refining the manuscript until it gleams with brilliance. Securing representation or a publishing deal involves crafting compelling pitches that capture the essence of the narrative. Upon acceptance, the manuscript undergoes further rounds of editing and production, a collaborative effort with professionals to ensure its readiness for publication. As the book takes its final form, promotional strategies such as book tours and social media campaigns are employed to engage with potential readers. With a blend of luck and relentless effort, the book finds its place in the hearts of audiences, leaving an indelible mark on readers’ lives. Ultimately, learning the craft of writing becomes a transformative odyssey, enriching not only my life but also touching the lives of those who encounter books by Author Lali A. Love.

Awesome – so before we get into the rest of our questions, can you briefly introduce yourself to our readers.

Since publishing my debut novel “Heart of a Warrior Angel” in 2019, my creative work has spanned over 12 publications that include epic dark fantasy, science fiction, paranormal thrillers, and metaphysical poetry. With a penchant for delving into the mystical realms of metaphysics, I intertwine profound concepts with gripping narratives, earning recognition as both an award-winning author and Amazon bestseller. As an intuitive, alchemist, and advocate for mental health, self-love, and equality, my aim is to elevate consciousness and inspire healing through my thought-provoking and compelling prose. My literary prowess has garnered prestigious accolades, including the NYC Big Book Gold Award for Poetry Anthology, Independent Book Gold Award for Poetry and Nature, Global e-Book Gold Award, the Elite Choice Gold Award, the Book of Excellence Awards, the Queer Indie Lit Youth Gold Awards, and the International Reader’s Favorite Awards. Renowned for my commitment to quality and impactful storytelling, my mission is to empower, enlighten, and entertain readers through my unique blend of metaphysical insight and compelling prose.

Driven by a desire to provoke thought and evoke emotion, I endeavor to craft inclusive and relevant character-driven narratives that resonate with contemporary issues. My exploration of the nature of reality and alchemizing inner-child wounds enriches my storytelling, offering readers a deeper understanding of universal energies and the human experience. Beyond my literary pursuits, I am a practitioner of energy healing, leveraging my expertise to foster consciousness expansion to facilitate self-growth journeys. As a staunch advocate for self-love, self-actualization, and equality, I am a champion for mental health issues, balanced harmonics, diversity, unity, and the empowerment of women and children. Through my writing and advocacy, I endeavor to illuminate the path to personal growth and societal harmony, leaving an indelible mark on both literature and the collective consciousness.

We’d love to hear the story of how you built up your social media audience?

Growing my social media presence as a writer requires a strategic approach that balances authenticity with promotion. Firstly, I prioritize creating engaging and meaningful content that reflects my voice and resonates with my audience. This could include snippets of my writing process, behind-the-scenes glimpses into my life as a writer, or thought-provoking quotes from my work. I have found that creating short marketing reels on Instagram or TikTok for my books has captured the reader’s attention. Consistency is key, so I strive to post regularly and interact with my followers by responding to comments and messages.

Additionally, I actively seek out opportunities to collaborate with bloggers, other writers, and book tour influencers in the literary community. By cross-promoting each other’s work, we can reach a wider audience and foster a sense of community among readers and fellow writers alike. I also leverage hashtags on Twitter and Instagram strategically to increase visibility with algorithms and attract followers who are interested in topics related to my writing.

Furthermore, I make use of multimedia content such as videos, images, and live streams to diversify my social media presence and keep my audience engaged. This could involve sharing book trailers, hosting Q&A sessions, or even reading excerpts from my work on my YouTube channel. Finally, I continually analyze the performance of my posts and adjust my marketing strategy accordingly, always striving to provide value to my followers while staying true to my brand as a writer. Through these efforts, I have grown my social media presence on Twitter organically and authentically, building a loyal community of readers who are passionate about my work.

What do you find most rewarding about being a creative?

For me, the most rewarding aspect of being a writer or creative is the opportunity to connect with others on a deeply personal and emotional level through my work. There’s something incredibly fulfilling about knowing that my relatable words have the power to evoke emotions, spark imagination, inspire growth, and provoke new thoughts in readers across the globe. Whether it’s through a novel, a poem, or artwork, I cherish the ability to create something that resonates with people on a visceral level, leaving a lasting impact on their conscious evolution. Additionally, the creative process itself brings immense joy and satisfaction, allowing me to explore the depths of my imagination, express my innermost knowing and feelings, and bring my ideas to life in tangible form. When I am in a peaceful aligned state of awareness, I channel creativity from a higher state of consciousness. My intention is to activate, empower, and uplift every reader to remind them of their limitless potential to live a fulfilling life of joy. Ultimately, being a writer or creative is not just about producing art; it’s about forging meaningful heart-centered connections, both with others and with myself, and leaving a legacy that transcends time and space.
