#wordweavers 2/12 (I really need to get myself to writing that decent ending and hire an artist for cover art...) 2ndary character pov: how would you feel if you were a celebrity?

Grainne: ... So I'm not? All those years of working myself up the chain to become a chief inspector and people STILL don't know who I am?! I have to say I'm slightly disappointed.

#wordweavers 1/12 (damn, it's already december and I still haven't published this book! There goes my hope of getting it out there for xmas...) Introduce your fave 2ndary character as if they were a celebrity

... Gods, I'm not good at this kinda stuff. Especially not with this flu rampaging through my body 😬 sorry, sitting this one out.

#wordWeavers 30/11 how would your protagonist and antagonist describe you to their besties?

Bold of you to assume the big bad has a bestie. He's all alone in this world... maybe that's why he's the antagonist, come to think of it. All he ever needed is a bestie!

Leda would pretend I don't exist, or she won't shut up about the evils I put her through for the sake of literary entertainment.

#wordweavers 29/11 if you could go back and change one thing in your writing in your earlier work, what would it be?

Are you joking me? I'm a perfectionist with RSD, I'm ALWAYS changing my works! The question is what would I leave intact?!

... But the answer is: I'd try to be less of a pantser.

#wordweavers 28/11 do you target your work to a specific audience?

Naaaaaah, it's open for everyone! *cough* #grimdark *cough* #gaslamp *cough* #fantasy *cough*

Oh dear, it seems that cold is still bothering me! 😅😏

#wordweavers 27/11 (a day late due to being sick) at what point during the writing of your #WIP do you know what the last line is going to be?

... While writing the last line, after a second draft.

I'm a pantser, ok? Don't shoot me!

#wordweavers 26/11 what question would your antagonist dread being asked by an interviewing journalist?

"So tell me, how *did* you rise to power?"

#wordWeavers 25/11: secondary character pov: you are allowed to play a prank on the MC. What would it be?

Aiden: I already *have*. What it was, is only for me to know. But that Leda girl is so easy to prank.

(sorry guys, spoilers)

#wordWeavers 24/11 what would make your protagonist and antagonist work together?

... Spoilers. But probably a common enemy. Even if that enemy is a primordial force of nature, and maybe not really a direct threat.

#wordWeavers 23/11 Do your characters ever express gratitude to each other?

In one scene that I know of, there's a very sincere exchange of gratitude, but apart from that... let's say... the MCs have their own ways of expressing gratitude.
