#PennedPossibilities 967 — What level of education do your characters have?
Most of them have no formal education whatsoever. They can only read, write and calculate what they need for their professions. I have one canon who was educated by the standards of time, including Latin, but that's it.
#PennedPossibilities 965 — What is your MC’s reaction when someone close to them is sick or injured? How do they behave?
After the initial shock - Frida is doing everything to make sure they are cared for and - especially - don't die.
She did it for Hans and her children, and she's doing it again.
#PennedPossibilities 964 — MC POV: What area of your life do you tend to enjoy in excess instead of moderation?
Frida?
"Johnmas' herbs, dances, rituals. My favorite time of the year."
Marek carrying a basket filled to the brim with berries and herb bundles, grimacing. "I have to agree. Do we really need more..?"
"Of course!"

#FridaVonHameln has just been published on Amazon:
https://mybook.to/FridaVonHameln
The English version #FridaOfHamelin is about to be done and may come out on April 1st.
Medieval history: A story set in the time and down of the Pied Piper.
#WordWeavers 18/3: Tell us about a time when your MC failed.
Frida isn't the best housewife. She doesn't care much for cooking and only cleans because she doesn't like to live in filth.
And there was this one time she failed to put the bread away, and when she came home, a fat rat sat on top of it.
Adding to that some careless jibes of her sister... A simple situation turned into a major breakdown.
#PennedPossibilities 960 — Describe the longest romantic relationship your MC has ever had. (If they’ve had one.)
Frida met Hans when she was fifteen and married him when she was eighteen. They had seven children, 4 of them quadruplets. Despite losing her girls and Hans' weak lungs leading to several illnesses, they were very, very happy.
She buried him in the snowy winter when she was 33. She thought she never love again.
MC POV: Complete this thought: "I wish I had paid more attention when…"
Frida?
"... when that accident at Christmas occurred. I might have save some people some heartache."
Not sure it would have changed anything, Frida-dear, tbh.
#PhantastikPrompts 17. Falls du etwas Entsprechendes hast, zeige uns ein Charakterportrait.
Ich habe die cover, die Emily für mich gezeichnet hat. Und sie passen beide, einmal ruhiger, einmal verzweifelter/besorgter:
#PennedPossibilities 957 — Does your MC have or wear a signature color?
Frida is a craftswoman in a medieval town. She's dressed in browns and beige modt of the time.
#PennedPossibilities 956 — With whom is your SC’s most important relationship?
Lutz' most important relationship is with his brother Theo.
Gunda would say it is Thiloman, but in truth, it's Frida.
Arnold would claim it's his wife Trine, but would grumbling admit that he likes his sisters better. Maybe his son and heir, Arne
