#WordWeavers: If your characters were in a museum, how would they act?

Marissa would be interested, but she’d want to touch everything and probably get herself in trouble.

Dante likely would be bored to tears unless it were a museum of natural history. He likes ancient predators.

Caylor would be thrilled to magically be out of his house and would probably run around and test his limits as a ghost. He’d also be tempted to pull a few pranks on the other visitors.

#WordWeavers: Who are your most and least gullible characters?

I haven’t thought of my characters in these terms. Caylor, being a somewhat isolated ghost might be the most gullible, with human Marissa as the least gullible. I’d put Dante in the middle, but more less gullible than gullible. However, Caylor is the one doing the pranks, so what do I know?😂😂

#WordWeavers: Do your MCs have any luck in love?

No. Write what you know, I guess?😂😂

Marissa: No, recently divorced and dating has gone poorly.

Caylor: He’s a ghost trapped in his house, so nope.

Dante: Hot werewolf who has lots of opportunities, but still stuck on his dead wife.

#WordWeavers: How much of an age range do you have with your MCs?

I have two WIP, a YA/A crossover novel and an adult novel.

The Ruined has 7 POV characters, ages: 15,16, 17, 17, 18, and 42.

Werewolves, Chocolate, & Pigeons has 3 POV MCs. Still working out details, but I believe they are 54, 55, and a 70 yo werewolf (they live to ~400 years old in this world.)

#WordWeavers: What personal expertise of yours makes it into your books?

I have a lot of knowledge that I don’t usually share online because of backlash, but I’m feeling brave, so here goes:

-working with ghosts and spirits
-altered states of conciousness (not drug-driven)
-nonviolence
-conflict resolution
-Indigenous healing and western “energy work”
-connecting with nature
-laboratory scientific research

(All of these are in my future ice age series, and most are in my other books/WIP.)

#WordWeavers: Is your MC spontaneous or a planner?

Marissa (human) is a mix, but a bit more of a thinker and planner.

Caylor( ghost) plans EVERYTHING.

Dante (werewolf) is a bit of both, but leans more toward spontaneity.

Just noticed this new review of my novella, Silence of the Song Trees, and was thrilled that the reader picked up on how much more could be explored in this world. I have another novella (half-written) and a novel planned that occur on Lenglood.😊

#WordWeavers: How much power does your MC have?

Marissa is human in a paranormal world, but has a lot more power than she realizes. Not through untapped superpowers, but by really listening to people and intuitively knowing what they need. Her ability to build connections with others sort of saves the whole town.
