#WordWeavers 25.05.2026 What one event defines your MC? Part 2
From a meta point of view it is the moment I finish my character sketch and begin writing.

#WordWeavers 25.05.2026 What one event defines your MC?
Many moments define my characters. But one point stands out as the moment Ume from #KonbiniIdol is forced to decide how much of her integrity she is willing to sacrifice for love.
Actually, I am not going to share it. It is a pivotal moment in the character arc. Let's say there is a moment where she could have gone either way.

#WordWeavers 17 How would your MC react to being handed a kitten?
It's part of #Airisu's contract, no cats allowed in the house. Sumika is sad about that.
So if it was Sumika who presented the kitten, there would be trouble!

#WordWeavers 17 How would your MC react to being handed a kitten?
#Airisu: Ack!!!
Flies to the top of a bookshelf
"Get that filthy thing away from me."

#WordWeavers 2026.05.16 — Would your WIP still work if you changed the gender of your MC?
I write #yuri or yuri adjacent. That is with a central plot arc about the relationship between women. So, no, it wouldn't work.

#WordWeavers 15. What type of writing (novels, shorts, poetry, etc) comes more naturally for you?
I write all lengths. Prose is more natural, but as for length, it's the length that fits the project.

#WordWeavers May 13: What role does non-romantic love play in your story?
Found Family always plays a role in my stories. One special case in Ume/Tomo's romantic relationship which they are able to negociate to nonromantic as their family expands and they find other romantic partners.

#WordWeavers 12 What role does romantic love play in your story?
In my early work, it is central, but as I have progressed, each series becomes more adventure-centered. The romance arc is still there, but isn't central.

#WordWeavers 10: What are the beauty standards like in your world, and do they impact any of your characters?
This is one area where I am not woke. Most of my characters conform to Japanese standards of beauty - classic beauties or cute women. The main impact is that the Narrator usually first falls in love with how the LI looks.
Left: Cute Kan-chan from "My Girlfriend Almost Got Me Killed" and "Konbini Idol"
Right: Shishi a classic chika bad-girl idol from "Konbini Idol."

#WordWeavers 9: Are there any unusual societal norms in your world?
Unusual assumes some standard to measure against. Perhaps what we think is normal? Not doing that.
No, they are all quite normal for their time and place.

#WordWeavers May 3: Tell us one thing you love about your story.
Bijou #TimeTravelingGhost: Doing a "sophisticated" pulp-inspired work is like reliving much of my early reading history. "Amazing Magazine," "Analog," "Astounding," Doc Savage, Edgar Rice Burroughs, with a touch H. Rider Haggard thrown in. #TimeTravelAuthors Whatever.
#Airisu : The Crow and the Witch: A crow narrator is a lot of fun. She can do and say things that a human character would be hated for.

#WordWeavers May 2: How much longer do you think it’ll take you to finish your WIP?
Volume one of #TimeTravelingGhost should be in rough draft in the next month or two. Given my usual speed, the next two planned volumes should be finished in a year.
Given I am working on a second series at the same time, this is faster than I used to be.

#WordWeavers 28: Do you use flowers at all in your story?
Flowers often dress up my work. Sometimes they are just window dressing, set the mood, are symbolic, or tie in with the plot. Lots of flowers.
Snip from "Prince Charming" #WIP
The day had started well. A gentle wind scented with verdant greenery stirred my hair. Bright violets bloomed along my path, mingling with yellow buttercups and brilliant orange poppies. Thrushes and titmice flitted in the hedges. It was truly the kind of day where wandering the byways felt like a blessing from a goddess.
