#WritersCoffeeClub May 3: Do you write your works localized to the setting or to your background? How do you decide?
The choice of setting evolves with the premise of the story. I have a novel set in Vancouver, where I live, but 150+ years in the future. I have a novella set in pre-historical Greece.
But I do *like* setting stories in my city. That's fun.

#WritersCoffeeClub May 4 Is there a scene or a character or even a plot you regret adding to a finished work?
None of them have been published, so they're all still fluid, so there's nothing to regret. :)

#WritersCoffeeClub May 6: Talk about something you've written that you expect will divide readers.
My lead character isn't the one to fight the Big Bad, for ~reasons~, and I think that might disappoint people, but it's got to be that way. She can't be the one.

#WritersCoffeeClub May 7: Do readers need to understand a character's motivations to understand the story?
Maybe, maybe not. It depends on the kind of story. If it's character-driven, probably yes. If it's really plot-focused, maybe it's not necessary.

Uh... trauma?
