#WordWeavers Day 1 - MC POV: Write a Mastodon introduction post.
"Here I am! I'm doing the thing. Veda made me. Though, I'll probably be too busy saving the multiverse to toot much."

(Catching up) #WordWeavers Day 2 - What books/resources have you used to improve your writing? Which ones do you recommend?
Honestly...every story I've ever read or watched. I like to reread and rewatch things, too, to analyze plots, world-building, tropes, and character development. I recommend finding what works best for you and sticking to it.
#WordWeavers Day 3 - Antagonist POV: How do you feel about animals?
"They're delicious? I don't know. I have more important things to think about. Get out of my sight before I turn you into fish and let you suffocate on my throne room floor."

#WordWeavers Day 4 - Is there writing advice you used to follow but changed your mind?
"Write every day," and, "You should only focus on one project at a time."
To both of those, I say...NO. I am more than just a writer, and I need days off. Also, if I force myself to only focus on one project...I end up not writing anything at all when I get stuck on a part. Now, I just switch to something else until the inspo comes back.
#WordWeavers Day 5 – SC POV: Who is your favorite person to be around?
“Besides the other vampires? Definitely Finn. He’s always really chill, and you can tell he sincerely cares about people. I feel like he’s the least angry werewolf I’ve ever met.”

#WordWeavers Day 6 – Does your MC feel understood? Why/why not?
Oli has a lot more on her mind than whether or not she feels understood. Honestly, she’s more worried about saving the multiverse. I’m not sure even she fully understands herself at the moment.

#WordWeavers Day 7 – What conflicts (internal and/or external, subtle or grand) are important in your story?
Without getting too spoilery:

2. The Mandella Effect
3. The existence and possible end of the Multiverse
4. Some weird stuff is going on in the Afterlives
5. Did someone say ancient primordial gods?

#WordWeavers Day 8 – MC POV: Are you happy? Why/why not?
“Happy? Are you serious right now? I keep seeing his death on a loop, even when my eyes are open. Leave me alone. I have a Multiverse to save.”

#WordWeavers Day 9 – What powers influence your characters’ lives?
The Limmikin King & his council are an active presence in their lives. But they’re all pretty powerful; werewolves, vampires, fae, magic users. They have the backing of the local Arcane community. The Februarians are a bit mysterious, but the elf, Elibreus Thorne has been an asset to the Pack.
