Subtitled: Prepare Yourself for Emotional Pain and Emotional Payoff with Stef

Stef (Wattpad: @Wimbug) and I chat about her Beauty and the Beast retelling Hearts of Stone and her seven-book series The Jewel Project.

Topics include her penchant for on-screen character deaths. The unjust decline of adventure novels. The meh of writing paranormal. Types of toxic relationships. And the dangers of Stockholm syndrome in Beauty and the Beast retellings (+ how to avoid them??).



Wattpad Reading Recommendations :D

Dragon Scale by @Cross-Warrior

And Siren Song by @UnboundWings

If any of my links are off, let me know! ':)



Two final confessions, I have since been inspired to face the terror that is my Wattpad bio. Read it here. :)

And, secondly, yes. I have finally caved and ordered a boom arm. Mic rattles should decrease significantly around episode 6... ;)
