Character: wow I haven't seen my boyfriend for 20 minutes. I wonder if he doesn't have feelings for me.
Character: (surrounded by carnage of war) or maybe he's dead
Me: why was that highly logical second option not your first thought. why did you let him out of your sight in the first place. my dear, why--

Author: male fairies are not as brightly-colored as female fairies.
Me: (thinks of peacocks. thinks of cardinals. thinks of culturally restrictive gentlemen’s wardrobes and glittery eye shadow) …ok then

Gina Marinello-Sweeney . . . oh, does this interest you in some way? :)

Should I finish writing the book? Thoughts? 🤔

😂🤣

(Seriously, THANK YOU SO MUCH for the enthusiasm. It truly means a great deal to me. ❤️ I have been a bit absorbed in everything PRINCE OF CHANDELIERS of late, but I plan to get back to Cornelius' book very soon. Although, even when not "officially" working on the latter, the story is sometimes running through my head. I know how it ends, for example, even though I haven't actually written that down yet. (And, no, I'm not saying. 😂)

Anyway, I can't wait. 😀

COURT OF WANDERING STARS, here we come!!!

P.S. The "court jester in space" story idea has been on my mind forever, even before Cornelius introduced himself. It's pretty wild. I'm glad that Cornelius decided to show up and take the role. 😉

*grabs and shakes you until you become a blur as if I can shake the book out of your brain*

"does this interest you" she says.
"should I finish the book" she says.

Gina, you will soon learn better than to tease little book-hungry bards.

Well, I mean, it's always good to check in with your readers, no? 😁 After all, it wasn't QUITE clear to me that you wanted to hang with Cornelius again. You know?

😂🤣

Joking, of course! I couldn't resist teasing a certain "book-hungry bard" again. :) Happy eating . . . ahem, reading.

But, really, thank you so much. It means a great deal to me that you care that much about a character that I created and are eager to see another story about him. ❤️

More than a great deal. It means the world.

I shall allow your teasing this once.
I am glad my shenanigans have touched your heart. If I can encourage writers, make them fall more in love with what they do (and bring me more stories!), then I shall be happy.
