Interview With Author Jamari Torian
Tell us about yourself and how many books you have written.
From a young age, I was captivated by the power of storytelling. Growing up immersed in fantasy literature, I discovered worlds where the impossible became possible, where heroes rose from unlikely circumstances, and where magic was woven into the very fabric of existence.
My writing journey began with small stories and expanded into the epic fantasy realm with “The Sundered World” series. I believe in creating characters that feel real and relatable, even when they’re wielding magic or battling mystical creatures. Every story I write aims to explore the depths of human nature through the lens of fantasy adventure.
By day, I navigate the digital world of cybersecurity, defending against hidden threats and unraveling complex systems. By night, I channel that same analytical mindset into crafting intricate plots and weaving detailed magic systems. This passion for technology provides a unique lens through which I explore themes of power, protection, and the hidden forces that shape our lives—both online and in the worlds I create. I have written two Fictional books so far.
What is the name of your latest book and what inspired it?
My latest book, The Sundered World Volume 2, was inspired by a vivid recurring dream I experienced over the course of a week, as well as by the storytelling and themes found in the anime Yu Yu Hakusho.
Do you have any unusual writing habits?
I plotted the story by formatting my story like a manga first.
What authors, or books have influenced you?
One of the authors who influenced me was Somaiya Daud, in the Mirage series.
What are you working on now?
I’m working on a mystery thriller and a manga at the moment.
What is your best method or website when it comes to promoting your books?
The website I use to promote my books is https://jamari-torian-author-website-7818cef4.base44.app.
Do you have any advice for new authors?
For new authors, my best advice is to keep writing even when it feels rough. Don’t wait for perfection, because perfection comes from consistency. Read as much as you can across different genres, because it sharpens your voice.
What is the best advice you have ever heard?
Clarity comes from action, not thought.
What are you reading now?
King of Ashes by S.A. Cosby
What’s next for you as a writer?
The next step in my journey as a writer is expanding into manga creation.
If you were going to be stranded on a desert island and allowed to take 3 or 4 books with you what books would you bring?
I’d choose a mix of survival, inspiration, and imagination, such as One Hundred Years of Solitude by Gabriel Marquez, Contagious: Why Things Catch On by Jonah Berger, and SAS Survival Handbook by John Lofty Wiseman
