    (Contd.)Tabitha: at 16 I poisoned my third governess in a year (what can I say? I was bored) so pater sent me to Countess Vulch's finishing school to straighten me out. I was good: I didn't poison any of the other girls, or even steal from them (much). Then at 18 I ran away and joined a down-on-their-luck crime family rather than let the inquisition crucify me with the rest of my family. But I had the last laugh: by 24 I was running the business—bespoke bioweapons for the gentry.#WordWeavers

    #WordWeavers Sunset Grill is set on a futuristic Earth; I haven’t really messed with garbage disposal, aside from their habit of dumping inconvenient bodies in the lake. A lot of inconvenient stuff goes in the lake. The rest gets sort of shifted about, piled up until the neighbors complain, dumped on neighbors without the power to complain. The city government is too wrapped up in its own corruption to pay attention unless there’s a disastrous failure. And now I’m getting ideas….(2/2)

    #WordWeavers In Sunset Grill: the antagonists in the current storyline would also be horrified. As a group they are Aesop’s dog — the one who dropped his bone in the river because he thought he saw another dog in the water with a bigger, better bone. They have quite a lot; but there are those with *more*, and they can’t stand it. They’re aware there’s also people with less, but they’ve constructed a scenario where Those People Deserve It. My protagonists are largely Those People, so.(2/2)

    #WordWeavers Oct 2: What do your characters argue about?In The Psychopath Club: typical teenage trivia.In The Devil's Finger: money, status, who's manipulating whom.In Three Men in Orbit: typical Edwardian trivia. Also, universal suffrage.In Juniper's Harp: save for some fierce debate early on about the conduct of a certain heist, and how the survivors should pick up the bits when it goes south, mostly my characters are too busy trying to stay alive to enjoy the luxury of an argument.
