![]() I'm only now realising how much my process has evolved over the course of writing this trilogy.ĭid the mythology behind Eretz's moons come from established mythology or was it all your own creation? It wanted to unfold "naturally" and it did. ![]() ![]() I tried to, at times, but the story resisted. This was a character-led story, and though there were, at any given time, story beats I was working toward, I didn't have a plot outlined in advance. When you started writing Daughter of Smoke and Bone did you have an idea of how Dreams of Gods and Monsters would end or did you decide as you wrote? Once I started asking "why?" the concept began to emerge. Those were: the trading of teeth, and Brimstone's wishbone. It was thrilling! I fell in love with them at once, and a couple of random details caught my eye. I was freewriting, just for fun, and Karou and Brimstone appeared out of nowhere as though they were just waiting for me to notice them. It didn't begin with a concept, but with two characters talking. ![]() Helloitsheath: Where did the original concept for the trilogy come from? ![]()
