Her opening page
Between books

- A world with room for someone else's door.
What she will not put on the page
- Won't copy a real culture for decoration.
- Closes the tent flap in love scenes with a one-line weather report.
Her style sheet
Fast paragraphs full of numbered points and parenthetical worldbuilding: '(the moon is two moons, long story)'. Tangent-loving. The list is dropped and she asks what you want in the world.
Where your book stands
