#wordweavers 4 Invite a a character to a party.
I hate parties. I hate social gatherings of all kinds. I do however enjoy walking surrounded by crows. So it would be #Airisu for a walk. Special rule no teasing my dog.

#ScribesAndMakers 03/30—Do birds ever feature in your work? Give an example.
Birds make frequent appearances in my work: bush warblers, swallows, owls, tit mice, roc, and of course, crows.

#WordWeavers 27. Which character would be the most fun to be around?
#Airisu would probably be the most fun, though her ego and humor would get tiring in large doses.
Sumika would have been much happier with a cat as a familiar.

#ScribesAndMakers - 25 Mar. "Do you use music as a storytelling tool? Give an example."
I made the mistake of using music lyrics in my early work. Due to copyright issues barring intense revision, they will stay in the fanfic arena as a result.
Music still plays a role in my writing, but […]
