#WordWeavers 2026.09.28 — Tell us about your MC’s religious or spiritual beliefs.
Not only does she have none, she is incapable of developing any. The concepts don't exist in her language. And. Had I not mentioned it in response to this question, you'd probably not have noticed except for some circumlocutions in the narration. Can't use the words derivative of belief or faith or luck, for example. Sort of spoilery, so please endeavor to forget I mentioned it.

#WordWeavers 2026.09.27 — What interesting quirks do your characters have?
I rarely give characters character-tags, shorthand textual phrases that make them immediately recognizable. The result is often cartoonish or gets in the way of running jokes. Such things ought be more meaningful to the story.
One quirk that evolved in the story, if you could call it that, is that one character has really bad body odor, notable in a hot sweaty milieu where everyone smells to some extent. It's not throwaway color; it comes into play and ends up with a gay romance twist.
I am going to add a quirk after having written a novel’s worth of words. Bolt, a day angel, has wings with a span 2½ times her height, yet in review, when in situations where she's not flying, it's almost like her wings disappear, and she's simply a human like you and I. Well, she is, but you understand? Right? I need to remind readers she is angelic, contrasting her physicality with those who lack wings. I'm going to make them flutter when she's excited or trying to emphasize something—like hand gestures when conversing, except unlike hands they're huge. They block the view behind her, cast irregular shadows, strike walls, bang ceilings, shed molts and dander, and rustle and hum (the feathers, anyway). It'll function to increase the sense of verisimilitude.

#PennedPossibilities 1141: Does your antagonist personally know your MC? Have they ever met?
Yes and yes. Innit more fun that way!?
One's an annoying punk gangster coworker who enjoys tormenting her, whom she can smell a block away.
Another's the mob boss who has her blackmailed. She tried to insinuate herself into his life and slept with him. That was the past. He rarely personally gives her orders, but when he does, he knows and plays on her weaknesses.
The scariest meets all those who might assist her in achieving her goals. In this case she knew Bolt through following the mob boss's career, but when she learned that Bolt trained her newest praetorian recruit to pass her rigorous flying test, she arranged to meet Bolt in person. Turns out Bolt is easily baited into a competition…
