Over the past four years, author Amanda Lee Koe spent time in New York City, Berlin, Switzerland and Thailand as she worked on her debut novel, Delayed Rays of a Star. This was not so much because she sought inspiration, rather the places provided the right settings for her as she pieced together her masterpiece. Lee Koe’s vivid imagination provided her with enough source material to bring her characters to life.
“People say you need to be in a constant state of inspiration. But for me, you have to be able to contain these small worlds inside of you and sustain it wherever and whenever you are,” says the 31-year old, during an interview with The Peak at members’ club Straits Clan, where she had a book launch event.
