Was ist das Beste, was dir als Autor*in je passiert ist?Zu Mastodon zu gehen und FB hinter mir zu lassen.
Hier habe ich wunderbare Menschen getroffen. Einige sind zu wichtigen Freunden geworden, andere habe meine Bücher gefunden und sind Fans im besten Sinne.
Und @Ardeija und @PetraHartmann haben wunderbare Rezis für meine Bücher verfasst.
Das wäre anderswo nicht passiert - ich danke euch und allen hier!

5th Oct 2026. Excluding unfinished work, what's the longest it has taken you to complete a project?
This novel was my apprenticeship, the result of ten years learning from how-to library books and applying the knowledge I found in them.

#PennedPossibilities 1148: Is your favorite genre to read also your favorite one to write?
I write in a genre adjacent to what I prefer to read. This wasn't always so.
I used to read and write fantasy adventures, used to enjoy the thrill of a new book.
These day, I don't deal well with thrill and tension anymore. So I read mostly romantasy, where a happy ending is guaranteed.
It seems that my writing is also slowly moving in that direction, at least with my Wolves.

#ScribesAndMakers 10/5. Excluding unfinished work, what's the longest it has taken you to complete a project?
Ten years for the first decent novel I completed - ELONA - although that includes several years on hiatus, and this being the only book I've ever chopped a huge section out of and rewritten.

#ScribesAndMakers 10/5 Excluding unfinished work, what's the longest it has taken you to complete a project?
Years.
Can't really be specific, there are several books that took my years to write. (Moon is just one example.)
And then there are finished books that I haven't published. Or that are just missing a chapter or two.
It's part of my writing life. I sometimes can't write much for months or even years.

#PennedPossibilities 1148: Is your favorite genre to read also your favorite one to write?
I spent easily fifteen minutes threading the needle on this one in order to say no, but it's ridiculous. Looking at what I've read since 2015 I have to admit it's fantasy, and what I've written is also fantasy, though I write it as if I were writing science fiction. Limits. Rules. No mysticism. I dislike Tolkien-style fantasy, so it is never that. And that’s what I've been enjoying reading. If the main character(s) are female, all the better.
