  1. #WordWeavers 2026.07.19 — MC POV: What scares you the most about the future of your world?

    [Bolt, day angel woman:] I dunno. Just living, working for the mob, is kinda scary enough already, but there was the news…about the government saying the population had declined 30 million to 240 million since the moonshot 200 years ago. Still, 240 million! That's an unfathomable number. Can't get me to worry about that.

  8. #WordWeavers 2026.07.18 — What is your MC’s favorite family tradition?

    Bolt ran away before becoming 18. She didn't value her family until she didn't have them anymore. I could be crass and say both mother and daughter (Bolt) enjoy their men, but without the context of their society, you don't know how boringly prosaic that statement actually is. There's not much else that really qualifies that most other day angels don't also do.

  22. #WordWeavers 2026.07.17 — What does your SC find beautiful that most people don’t?

    This feels like a cheat because the devil-girl is doing a guest stint as a supporting character in the current science fiction WIP. Her answer IS mathematics. The more complex the better. She likes math. Numbers talk to her, equations balancing makes her ecstatic. The beauty that could make even her cry, that most other daemons dismiss, lets her see how the universe is constructed and, well… work miracles.And that, already, is manifestly spoilers.

  27. #ScribesAndMakers ##TTMD π2026.07.17 — Talk To Me Day Featured Creator Suzy Shearer @SuzyShearer

    With over a dozen books published, undoubtedly you find it simple to turn off the self-censor when writing (and during revision!), but I suspect this wasn't an easy skill to master. Any tips for mastering the monster? My recent work is spicy by necessity of the POV (1st person) and her world; though it's not erotica, the character does relish one aspect of her life. I admit to choking whilst writing more often than I like, then restarting and wondering why I stopped. You could help me greatly by sharing your experience.

  34. #PennedPossibilities 1073 — MC POV: Tell us about a time when your heart raced, either for good or bad reasons.

    Well, since I've become less prejudiced, not only do I have more men to choose from since I'm not as picky as to whether they are day angels or not (that is no longer requiring them to have wings), there's the devil-girl. She's both a daemon and not a guy. Her pointy rebar-like tiny horns are exotic, fascinating, challenging—dangerous in a cute way. I really wasn't trying to hook up with her, only to distract her for awhile, but I was being friendly and she interpreted that, well, unexpectedly, unexpectedly nicely, you know, and, well…, you know… racing heart, right? So, why not?

  39. #WordWeavers 2026.07.16 — If your MC was a superhero, what would their symbol be?

    Bolt already has a symbol, but it would be spoilers to detail how. She's not sure what it means, though she has her own interpretation. We might think it looks like horse tack and traces.

  41. #PennedPossibilities 1072 — Is there a place in your world known for peace? Is it difficult to find?

    At the time at the WIP, Home and the Nine Outer Worlds seem at peace. The armistice with the Wild (the only territories not controlled by Home on Home) seems to be holding, and some Wildings are joining the enclosing culture they've isolated themselves from for 500 years. The dragons have their own world (1 of the 9), but it's still an exile from Home. They aren't happy with being forced into a trade relationship (to them being held hostage) for an essential Home nutrient. After 200 years they don't want to acknowledge they started the Dragon Wars, but they seem to be keeping the peace.

    All of the facts are important only in a proposed sequel, but two of the characters know all is not as it seems to be, and one hints (one might say foreshadows) events in the WIP obliquely.

  43. #PennedPossibilities 1071 2/2— What is something you wish existed in the real world that exists in your WIP?

    I agonized for hours how to answer this question in part one, and settled for the minimum distillation I wrote.

    In the stories, specifically in Reluctant Moon not the current WIP, there is no ambiguity, no lawyering allowed, nor are there exceptions. In the series it's a capital offense and becomes the rationale for war. Thinking you belong to someone is treated as mental illness.

    Pure fantasy in our world.
