Hometown interview
Less than 11 weeks away, The Jinn Daughter is getting some buzz. My hometown published an interview with me on The Valley Ledger, a short interview on why I write, how I balance grad school and research with writing, and more.
Here’s a snippet from the interview.
What or who inspired you to be a writer? What was your inspiration for this book?
-Rania Hanna, The Valley Ledger, January 2024
I always wanted to be a writer and a scientist, and now I’m both, which has been such a gift. Every book I’ve ever read has inspired me to be a writer. Much of my love of literature and writing comes from my father, who fed me a steady diet of Middle Eastern food and folklore. I draw from oral stories my dad passed on to me — some of the tales interwoven into the larger narrative of The Jinn Daughter I’ve drawn from stories he told me growing up.
My strongest inspiration for writing this book has been my Syrian heritage, a heritage I am proud of.
