#PennedPossibilities 863 — Has your SC ever quit a job? What were the circumstances?

Yes, she has. Hati worked at another pub, but the owner was treating her badly. She quit, walked away, and (in a boss bitch move) went to work for his biggest competitor. The man is kind and treats her well. She’s genuinely valued now as an employee, which is also a marvel when we consider the fact that this is the Victorian era. Women were very rarely EVER valued under any circumstance.

#PennedPossibilities 862 — If your MC hasn’t committed a crime, what would motivate them to do so?

While we know what Fenella has done, because I talked about it last night, Alistair is a different story. Something that would push him to commit a “mortal” crime is an interesting idea and it’s probably someone hurting one of his servants, all of whom he’s close friends with. A crime in the eyes of immortals and breaking “vampiric” law, however, is something that he’s already done. Vampires aren’t allowed to be friends with werewolves, and he is. He’s close with not one but two werewolves, and nothing will ever change that for him.

Happy Tuesday! A new chapter of #WingsOfQuietLonging has arrived.

PS, this story was written for @CodexArcene.

⸻

Now that they've left Caden's residence, Alistair has someone that he needs to speak to. Fenella tags along.

#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.

#WritersCoffeeClub 12.1 — From where did the inspiration for your current WIP come?

(Guess who's back?)

I've written Alistair, Fenella, and Duncan with friends (and my girlfriend) over the years. I love collaborative writing. I probably came up with the idea of Alistair maybe twelve years ago. The story (as in my current WIP) wrote itself. It was a challenge I gave myself for October.

Also, randomly, I just *love* vampires, werewolves, etc. I'm a GM for Dungeons and Dragons (and other TTRPGs). I love fantasy work. It's fun for me. I love adding my own spin to things, though. This story was the same. I always strive to be completely original, and I want my stories to be *different* in a good way.

#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.

“Fang’d” by Vin George.

Charley is on the run from the biker gang he works for because they think he killed one of their members. When Charley runs across a country lane trying to escape his pursuers, he’s nearly run over by Luc. The slightly older Luc is instantly attracted to Charley, so he offers to help. The two end up on a road trip, taking them to unexpected places, both metaphorically and physically.

“Fang’d” definitely hooks you in from the very start with the dramatic meeting between the two main characters and the urgency of being on the run. It keeps you reading once the characters begin learning about each other. In Charley’s case, he’s also learning some things about himself that radically changes his worldview.

Gíana padded outside to stand guard as Medb finished tearing the lieutenant's body into shreds, and then proceeded to gnaw and dismember the commanding officer for catharsis.

#PennedPossibilities 857 — Does your universe have any autumnal traditions?

Of course. Many. It's our world, albeit a different time period. One example would be All Hallow's Eve, of course.
