His involvement is information more than one troll would kill to possess, which is why he must keep it a secret from everyone, even the girl he loves. After accidentally ruining her sister’s chance to become queen, Pénélope is given one last opportunity by her father, the Duke d’Angoulême, to make herself useful: she must find proof that the boy she’s in love with is conspiring against the crown. If she fails, her life will be forfeit. Marc and Pénélope must navigate the complex politics of Trollus, where powers on all sides are intent on using them as pawns, forcing them to risk everything for a chance at a life together. #maledictioncharacter #thebrokenones #maledictiontrilogy

@elisesievert and @lesley.shannon loved talking to #elyseniblett on #nsldpodcast for ep.27.

Born and raised in California, Elyse began a life of performance as a ballet dancer. After thirteen years she began training in sketch and paint art. At 21 years of age she discovered acting. She graduated with a BFA in Screen Acting at Chapman University but it wasn't until a few years after graduating that she shifted her focus to directing. With the help of Tony Spiridakis and his Manhattan Film Institute, she made her debut film, The End of the World, about a woman at the end of her rope in a loveless marriage. At MFI, Elyse met Cece King, who would later hire her as the director for the Independent Feature Film, The Broken Ones, which just had its world premiere at the opening night of the SOHO Int'l Film Festival to a sold out theater. Last year Elyse created her production company, Gray Space Productions, with her long time colleague and friend, Blair Nichols. Through her company she has created video content for companies along with narrative short films. They are now in development with two separate feature films, with Elyse at the helm as director. Elyse was always drawn to storytelling and found her home behind the camera. Her background in acting has aided her interpretation of scripts and her ability to shape actor performances. She is beyond excited and grateful for the continued success of her first feature, The Broken Ones, and looks forward to many more. Her favorite part about film is the collaborative process, working with fellow creatives to build a narrative that strives to move, inspire and enlighten her viewers. She would not be here were it not for the tireless support of her family and friends. "

One of my FAVOURITE series', @danielleljensen's The Malediction Trilogy came to an end last year and it pretty much broke me. The PREQUEL NOVEL, The Broken Ones which tells the story of Tristan's best friend Marc and Anaïs' sister Penelope and it is SO BEAUTIFUL! . . In honour of the release of #TheBrokenOnes, I'm giving away a copy of book one, Stolen Songbird on my Twitter! If you're interested (and you SHOULD read this series) just long onto Twitter and look for the pinned tweet on @/AditiNichani . . QOTD: Favourite Fictional Prince?
