Do your protagonists deserve a happily-ever-after? Why/why not? Will they get one?

Both Esther and Érié would certainly deserve but they won’t get one 🫤

#wordweavers 2025-09-03

Compare your MC in the beginning and the end of the story. What changed? What's the same?

Esther will gain freedom (and superpowers).

Have you made eleventh hour additions to your cast? Who was it, and what led to that decision?

I add Raymond-12, a Moreau bat based assistant. Why I need him would be a spoiler

Describe the most unusual/intriguing marketing opportunity you've encountered.

It may just happen currently but I can’t tell until I’m sure it will effectively be. I’ll edit this toot if it has a successful outcome. Cross fingers for me! 🤞🤞🤞

What is your MC's earliest memory?

Esther remembers her ride on her poney

#wordweavers 2025-09-07

MC POV: What can't you accept?

Esther: “Unfortunately, I tend to accept a lot of things. I'm probably like those frogs who are put in cold water, and then the temperature rises slowly enough that they don't realize it and end up getting cooked.”

#wordweavers 2025-09-08

Do you have a favorite among your cast of characters?

No surprise, I prefer the trio Esther, Erie and Lady D’Arcy over the doctors and Sir James.

Share a snippet with an animal in it.

Do Moreau’s creatures still animals or already humans ? I guess it depends of who answers to the question !

If you had to show that a character is a good person within one scene, how would you do it?

A good person is someone who acts egoless, ready to risk themselves to help others.

If you had to show that a character is a bad person within one scene, how would you do it?

A bad person is someone who never cares about others and making them uncomfortable in order to pursue their goals.

How much does your SC fear death?

Erie: “Deäth I døn’t fear; I learned yøung that lìfe can brütally end and that øne shøuld lìve everyday lìke ìf the last ìt’ll be”

Does any kind of spirituality play a role in your story?

It’s Victorian times, people are supposed to be Christian. That said most people in my story aren’t very religious.

Lady D’Arcy used to setup a dark cult, nothing spiritual for her, just a way to manipulate people

Do any of your characters create any form of art?

Esther is an harpist

Share a snippet with a color in it.

Yesterday I needed to draw Esther，after being away from her for a while because of the We Love Vintage market. And even more, I drew her traditionally and in colours. I think it’s not too bad for a first time in years.

#wordweavers 2025-09-16

What is your SC wrong about?

Erie has been raised and trained by Lady d’Arcy for a few years. Because of this, she lacks of many of the social benchmarks and her moral standards are biased.

Also her senses are often more sensitive than humans, especially her smell.

All this can lead her to misinterpret signals and suggest wrong answers to Esther

#wordweavers 2025-09-17

Does your antagonist have any specific fears?

Lady d’Arcy fears of ageing, she did everything she could (surgery, dark magic) to delay it. That’s why she was so happy to find a way to rejuvenate effectively when she had been exiled, ironically.

#wordweavers 2025-09-18

[Illustration: Lady D’Arcy when she had been exiled and later when she met Esther]

Is there anyone your antagonist misses or longs for?

Érié: Lady d’Arcy misses her maid, and one of her goals is to grab her back.

How does society think about nature and its protection?

Victorian era saw the beginning of the concept of nature protection. That said, in Esther and Erie universe, United States doesn’t reach West Coast and thus, the Yellowstone park hasn’t been created in 1872.

#wordweavers 2025-09-20

Would your MC contribute to any discrimination in their world?

It’s a complicated topic: Esther is less bad than most people, but she wouldn’t consider Erié as her equal, both racially and socially. A layered society is normal for her, just it shouldn’t be enforced by violence.

She’s a suffragette who strikes for women’s voting rights but in her mind it should be reserved to people who pays tax

#wordweavers 2025-09-21

Is there gambling in your world? Do any of your characters participate in it?

Yes and yes: Esther’s father started his career on Great Albion sidewalks playing some gambling games. In fact he always saw life as a gamble, and has often won… until he loses nearly everything.

If anyone in your world has imperfect vision what, if anything, can they do to correct it?

They can put glasses on
