The Tholick church teaches: those that have must give to those who do not. People must work together in times of struggle and strife.

Unfortunately, like the real world, most people have missed the point of several teachings and dont follow that.

In the Protectorate hardship and violence come in spades. Due to the sheer amount of anti Ungovernable propaganda, anyone who is outed as non-human faces recrimination.

While some humans seek to help non-human races, they are the minority.

I'm not very exciting with this one. I write in my office (though sometimes I call ot my study to be fancy 🤣🤣).

If I'm on transit I sometimes edit on my phone, but writing via word on the phone is difficult 🤣

Good: take your time. The story will get done and your mental health will thank you for not burning out.

Bad: Write everyday*

*this one is subjective. For some people, write everyday works. For me, it backfires.

Meecham believes the ends justify the means.

She knows her plans will cause harm to people on all sides of the equation, but if it means eradicating Ungovernables, so be it.

Jamie's ethics are skewed as he has been brainwashed by Protectorate propaganda.

Things most people would find unethical he will do of it is against the Ungovernable population because he believes they would do worse.

She stood, shaking her head at her friend’s enthusiasm. “I should think that is hardly important on your wedding day.”

“You have to give me something.”

I write fantasy and break into subgenres like mystery, sword and sorcery, etc.

As for reading, I usually stick to fantasy but if I'm in the right mood I'll read a thriller.

In Anhelos, the first "king" of Arctus is considered a hero by some and a villain by others.

A lot of the problems come from inaccuracies within history where people believe the first king started the enmity between Twili and Arctus, and he is-

Anhelos is cheating as there are several monarchies, but in PTW the siren community has a figurehead monarchy.

Does a mob family count as a monarchy? If so, vampires have one too 😂😂

I think my favourite line from Bound is:

"Highness, you must not start a war tonight."

Quinn's sword, Slythium, is black. It's made of enhanced obsidian (enhanced meaning magic was used to purify and strengthen the rather brittle material).

The only colour on the blade is a thin, jagged line of crimson along the centre of the blade-

Quinn is smart in certain areas. He's a brilliant tactician and can handle diplomacy with incredible skill.

His charisma tends to come to the rescue when his mind can't.

Rylen is also smart though he doesn't show it.

Relaxing doesn't come easily for me (not cause I'm a workaholic, more because I have anxiety).

So when I try to relax it tends to be a nap or mindlessly watch television.

Occasionally a puzzle can relax me if I'm in the right mood.

White is the colour links to Arcturia, (capital of Arctus).

Most state-owned buildings are built using marble and a lot of the higher nobility also used marble to build their homes.

Using magic (or a team of servants) they keep everything sparkling

I can't say I have any computer based tools, other than I use word to write.

But on the paper and pencil front I am a big fan of the post it board method.

Not an overly exciting snippet per se, but it is only the start of the scene. Things get interesting a couple lines later 👀😂

Fun fact about Ari from Poisoning The Well, the candles to complete his summoning ritual must be purple. Depending what colour you use, you might get a different Daimon.

(For example, blue candles will get you a Daimon named Parithaus)-
