#WordWeaver 5/11 What role does romantic love play in your story?

There's a decent bit of romantic love between Branwen and Matholwch in Taliesin B2, because I find it very integral to the story. Otherwise I try to avoid shoving in a ton of romance just for the sake of romance, and there's never any guarantee that the romance will work out so neat and tidy.

The characters fall in love and have desires, because that's human, but love is frequently messy, awkward, and tends to complicate things a lot.

FINN by Suzy Shearer
Claire Reynolds, 55, never believed in soul mates, or love at first sight, until she literally ran into Finn O’Malley, 55. Something happened—something primeval, something like destiny calling, as they stared at each other.
A ‘happy ever after’ was theirs for the taking—and they grabbed it joyfully with both hands.
Mysterious floral gifts. A hidden agenda. A faux saviour. A watcher who finally acts. An act that intends death to Finn. An act that neither Finn or Claire may survive.

A poem I wrote about the disconnect between work, parenthood, and dreams. How they all seem so simple, but so distant. Enjoy.

#WordWeaver 3/12 What's the best thing about the world of your story?

Love answers all problems.

It's messy and dangerous, but if you love someone enough, everything comes out okay in the end.

Read my poem about how unfamiliar kindness can be in this modern world. It is both personal and universal.
