In this episode of Literary Lines: Interviews with Indie Authors, host GiGi Meier sits down with fantasy author and vampire novelist Linda Ling. With six published works to her name, including the acclaimed Land of the Sun trilogy and her latest release, A Chimeric Vampire’s Tale (book two in The Origin Chronicles), Linda’s storytelling is as rich and layered as her heritage.

Linda opens up about how her Chinese heritage shapes her writing, particularly in The Origin Chronicles, where she weaves deep-rooted history and cultural traditions into her vampire series. As a third-generation bridge between old traditions and the modern world, she shares the challenges and joys of honoring her ancestry while crafting stories that resonate with today’s readers.

Beyond her novels, Linda reveals how writing serves as an emotional outlet, helping her process the heavy realities of her work as a doctor and the struggles of her patients. From celebrating Chinese New Year to her upcoming epic crossover fantasy series, Linda’s journey is one of creativity, healing, and cultural celebration.

Tune in to hear about her writer moments, how being an author has transformed her life, and where you can find her online. Whether you’re a fantasy fan or simply love stories that bridge the past and present, this episode is a must-listen!
