Today, we continue our interview with Ray Star, as she tells us how she incorporates animal-people rights and environmentalism into her books’ fantasy settings. “And they live in this idyllic scenario where they grow their own food. And all the ways that we could live our lives in line with nature, rather than against it, that’s how that story begins. We all just need to make some lifestyle changes. And I’m hoping that readers get that when they read the book.” “And then she’s this really, really, inspirational girl because she’s raised away from all of this, a little bit like some of us are. We don’t realize the realities of what’s happening in the world. And then readers see what’s happening through her eyes.”Ray Star went vegan immediately after watching the award-winning documentary film “Earthlings,” which exposes the immense suffering endured by animal-people raised for consumption, clothing, research, and more. “How do we reach the billions of climate deniers, the old me, the old Ray that used to think animals had a good way of life, how do we reach them? And I think it’s through the arts. I think it’s through books. I think it’s through music. I think it’s through TV shows and films.” “Raising awareness is great, but just telling everyone how awful things are doesn’t create change either. It’s also important to provide some solutions of some sort. And the kind of solution within the book does revolve heavily around the Plant Based Treaty.” “I wish everyone in the world could watch the documentary ‘Earthlings.’ And I think if we save animals, we’ll save nature, and by doing that, we’ll save ourselves as well. Animals do die in the most horrific of ways. It does change our climate. We are depleting nature. When people realize these things, people care. People will want to change.”
