#FantasyIndiesApril 24/April/25: Nicknames in WIP?

Charlys calls Yaetherim 'Therry'. She's the only one who's allowed to call him that.

Yaetherim calls Charlys 'Sunbird'. Originally, because she loved flying around. These days, it's because just seeing her brightens his day.

#FantasyIndiesApril 21/Apr/25: MC's Favourite Weather?

Yaetherim doesn't mind the weather, although the patch on his wing chafes when it gets too humid.

Tenora prefers sunny days. She was nearly struck by lightning as a child and traumatised. So rain and storms are uncomfortable for her.

#FantasyIndiesApril 19/Apr/25: Snippet Sunday: Suspicion.

This is from 'Embers of Doubt', where the titular embers come into play. It's in the aftermath of a fire at the College of Mages.

#FantasyIndiesApril 11/April/25: When did you first start writing stories?

Back in primary school. It's been a part of who I am for that long. (I'm in my late 30s now.)

#FantasyIndiesApril 9/Apr/25: What do your characters take for granted?

Magic. Everyone can use it, and Rychillan technology is built upon it. They use firekind and waterkind magic to drive the steam engines in their cars and trucks, through runes. It's like how we rely on electricity.

#FantasyIndiesApril 5/Apr/25: Snippet Saturday - Scenery.

This is from chapter 1 of 'Embers of Doubt'. One of the three fairy villages within the town of Alkentoft. For context, Yaetherim is escorting Naeliya home, as she's completely drunk.
