Had to change an important character's last name in #LOCATE (releasing February 26th) because I met someone in real life with that last name and it feels too weird to use the surname of someone I know personally.

Anyone else do this?

When I think of a "meadow," I think about a large clearing in the woods, but the definition hints more at a hay field. Are there differences in usage between dialects? Maybe Highland Scots would think more of a clearing in the trees? Am I totally wrong? #words, #meadow, #writerquestions

Do #Irish people actually say "Cor, blimey!" anymore? I ask because I have an Irish character. He's also a faery (NOT a leprechaun; he's a Cu Sidhe) though I don't know how old he is. At least in his 30's, but he could be older.

I am also trying to see if I can keep their bill under $300. They can easily afford it, but I have my reasons. The $300 figure is based on $20 meals for each of the 15 people present. One individual is a six year old. #WriterQuestion #writer #WriterQuestions

The smallest details can be a problem. Have a scene with 15 people eating out, want them to buy family-size meal(s) to feed that many people easily, don't know what the price would be. I have no practical knowledge to inform the answer and no idea what to look up to find it. #writerquestions

Does anyone know if #foxes can #choke on food or drink like humans can? It's a minor point in my #writing.

Writers: Do you outline meticulously—or do you let your plot flop around like a wounded fish until it figures out what it wants to be? Asking for my manuscript.

Writers, do you think we should be tackling politics in our work, or just stay above the fray—like my characters, who are currently ignoring both the plot and my outline?

Writers! If your book/WIP had a soundtrack, what’s at least one song that would be on it? Is it the lyrics, the vibe, both, neither?

For Imago, the song The Pioneers by Bloc Party was a foundational text. Their music and lyrics have always struck me!

You're writing a mystery. What archetypical characters do you write? A Femme Fatal? An Everyman?

Here's a thing. Do a small group of characters with 50 lines between them NEED to have individual voices? They serve a single purpose, as a group... 🤔 #WritingCommunity #WriterQuestions

Is your WIP a sequel? A prequel? Do you regret it? Do you only believe in standalone fiction?
