About the Author
Elizabeth Muir-Lewis discovered her passion for writing later in life, after a distinguished career as a musician, singer, conductor, teacher, and choral director. Growing up in a family of writers, Elizabeth believes the “writing gene” was always present, waiting to emerge.
​
Her journey as an author began with poetry, which grew into short stories and ultimately evolved into novels. Elizabeth’s works often reflect her deep connection to music and the arts, providing rich, multi-dimensional narratives.
While “Vindication” is not explicitly about music, her understanding of the discipline and passion required for artistic mastery permeates the story.
The inspiration for “Vindication” began with a family anecdote shared by Elizabeth Muir-Lewis’s father. He recounted how, upon seeing her mother walk past him, he decided then and there to marry her. This romantic moment sparked the initial idea for the novel.
​
As Elizabeth began writing, the story took on a life of its own, evolving in unexpected ways. “One thing about writing,” she shares, “is that a story can grow almost without one knowing it."
​
Initially unaware of where the narrative would lead, she found herself exploring uncharted territory, weaving in layers of complexity that enriched the tale.
A pivotal character, the girl who falsely accuses the protagonist of rape, became central to the story. Her actions, regrets, and eventual tragedy deeply influence the protagonist’s journey, shaping his character and adding depth to the narrative. Her presence underscores the themes of growth, accountability, and the far-reaching consequences of one’s actions. This organic process of storytelling, combined with Elizabeth’s nuanced exploration of human relationships and resilience, forms the heart of “Vindication”.

Message from the Author
“That I hope the story catches your imagination. That you find it interesting to learn what it takes to become a great actor. Maybe find all the diverse characters in the book of interest. Also, that humanity plays a part in the way the main character behaves that integrity matters. The book was called "Vindication" because the main character Jamie was vindicated by the court’s decision that he was innocent.”
