Love your stories, love your peeps.

May 10 By Marjorie

This from Neil Gaiman, because it can never really be said enough:

I rarely go “I will now write a …” (whatever. Fantasy, or pirate story or detective story or ghost story) and then try and find a plot. Mostly, I go “This would be a story…” and then follow it where it goes. I think that’s more fun. Worry more about your characters—are they people you would like to meet and spend time with?—and what you’re trying to say, what the story’s about, than you do what the story is. Because if you know what it’s about, then you can simply inspect and use or reject ideas.

Now, back to the Batcave.

About Me


I write comic books and novels about grumpy warrior women, eccentric demons, plucky fox girls, and men who can shape-shift into tigers. If a merman or gargoyle shows up, all the better!  To learn more about me, please go here.
