Meadow Ramraj, a student at the Canadian International School, is twelve years
old and has been writing since the age of nine. Black Amber is his third novel, and the start of a new trilogy
called The Elrolian Hunter. He writes everywhere – usually at home on his
bed, but also on the school bus, where he can look out the window and create
new ideas.
Eli gets
ideas from all sorts of situations: in school, on vacation, and at home when
someone says something to spark his interest, such as debates over the order a
stack of magazines should go in – latest issue at the top, or bottom? He writes
down all his ideas for characters and events in one document, and is easily
able to pull them out when in need.
The
inspiration for his latest novel is his passion for animals and wildlife, and
how humans’ actions affect them. He has also gathered inspiration from all
sorts of authors such as J.K Rowling and Arthur Conan Doyle. When he was two
years old, he was given a Dorling Kindersley handbook of mammals, and that has
been one of the most-used and most-loved books in his house, and an important
resource in his research on animals.
Black Amber is a
fantasy–adventure novel that takes place in a futuristic location over one
thousand metres above earth. Eli likes to write stories with characters and
situations to which readers can easily relate even in settings that are nothing
like the world we live in now. He writes for a hobby, and loves being able to
express ideas to the community through the means of a book.
