Inside the Mind - JF Hopper

JF Hopper
  • What inspired you to start writing?
    I think it began with listening—truly listening—to the stories told around me. My grandfather would spin tales by lamplight, and they always felt more real than the world outside the window. Later, I discovered Celtic mythology and realized that myths weren’t just old—they were alive, still whispering through song, memory, and silence. I started writing because I felt those stories didn’t want to stay forgotten. I wanted to catch what was fading and give it voice again.
  • Can you tell us a little about your latest book?
    My latest book is The Fianna Chronicles: Awakening, the first in an epic fantasy series rooted in Celtic myth and the power of memory. It follows Aisling, a quiet village girl whose life is forever changed when a haunted medallion chooses her as the bearer of an ancient legacy. Alongside three others—each broken in their own way—she becomes part of the rebirth of the Fianna, legendary guardians long thought lost to time. But this isn’t a simple tale of chosen heroes. The medallion whispers. Shadows remember. And not all who walk beside you are what they seem. At its heart, the book is about finding strength in the parts of ourselves we try to bury—and realizing that even forgotten songs still carry power.

  • What inspired you to start writing?
    My journey into writing was entirely unplanned. With a background in automotive technology, I never envisioned myself as an author. However, after the birth of my daughter, I found myself unexpectedly fired during my maternity leave. To support my family, I took a night shift job, allowing my husband and me to alternate caring for our newborn. In the midst of exhaustion and frustration, I began jotting down dark thoughts about my former boss, imagining elaborate scenarios of revenge that would appear accidental. My father, who was living with us at the time, stumbled upon my musings and suggested they could form the basis of a compelling story. Inspired by his encouragement, I transformed those vengeful ideas into my debut novel, Mechanics of Murder. Since then, I have embraced my newfound passion for writing and dedicated myself to honing my skills. This unexpected turn of events has led me to become an award-winning author, and I have never looked back. What began as a cathartic outlet has blossomed into a fulfilling career that I cherish deeply.
  • Can you tell us a little about your latest book?
    I just finished the fifth and final book in my Order & Chaos series. It is a bittersweet end, saying goodbye to the series I celebrated and cried with the past 6 years. It launched me into the world of being an award-winning author and also the world of being banned on social media.
