#WordWeavers 12.2 — What does your MC’s home smell like?

Good food, hearth smoke, and the delicate scent of herbs and flowers (when the time of year allows it). The scents of daily chores, cooking, and cleaning as well. Come to think of it, you can also smell perfumes, various hygiene habits, medical odors, etc.

#WordWeavers 12.1 — In an alternate universe, you are the opposite of who you are. What's your story like there?

Let's talk about if I was dropped into my WIP but the opposite of who I am. Ha. I'd be an outgoing person, for one. I'm an introvert who suffers from pushed into big situations and family will call me an extrovert and laugh when I say differently. LOL.

I'd be a loud, outgoing, and uninhibited tavern / inn owner. I might even be beating up the nasty patrons and throwing them out by myself.

#PennedPossibilities 861 — Has your MC ever committed a crime? If so, what have they done?

Fenella traveled the world. While doing so, she took on work as a private investigator for other women. (Mortal women, that is.) All of this would be fine, however, but she began to notice how horrible some men were. Rage has never been an emotion that she’s well equipped to handle. She killed those men. She was never caught, though.

#PennedPossibilities 860 — What would bring your SC to tears?

Another fight with her mate, Samuel. They’re passionate people and they express themselves differently. They’re married. They’re werewolves. Emotions are completely different for beings of their kind. Every single time they fight, it’s explosive. It makes me want to hug them both, as the author, whenever I have to write these scenes or I allude to them.

#WordWeavers 11.29 — When writing gets hard, what keeps you going?

My girlfriend. My friends. My family. My love and passion for it. All of those things keep me going, no matter what's going on in my life or how "tough" the writing process (or editing) gets for a while. It's why I stick it out and keep on truckin'.

#WordWeavers 11.28 — Your MC gets a free bag of candy corn. How do they react?

Alistair has never seen or eaten candy corn, but that's because it's the Victorian era. He's also a vampire, so he couldn't eat it. What he would do, however, is give some to his mortal (human) friends and let them enjoy it. That would give him a big smile.

#WordWeavers 11.26 — Does your current antagonist share any traits with you?

He's hotheaded. I can definitely say that I'm the same way as well at times, no matter how hard I try not to be. I'll own up to it.

#PennedPossibilities 858 — MC POV: Is it easy for you to forgive others? (Truly?)

Alistair: Pfft. No. It never has been. Ask my friends, ask Hati or Fenella, and you'll learn more. I'm not a very trusting person to begin with. If you betray me, I won't bother giving you a second chance. My maker wasn't a forgiving man, either. Perhaps I learned it from him.
