Sasha is so insightful and opened up to us a ton about her journey with writing. Here are the questions we asked her, and she DELIVERED!

  • How did you plot out and world-build so beautifully? Did it come character first or world first? You mixed magic with history so well, and I loved the way she uses magic to create something so beautiful.
  • You brought to life so many of the secondary characters and the world that you had. In your first draft, did you have that? How did that change and grow when you are developing those characters?
  • What kind of advice would you give to someone who was in the middle of their first draft and it feels so messy, half plotted, and all the characters are flat?
  • What do you do when your character's wants don’t seem strong enough?
  • When you’re plotting, how often do things change for you?
  • YOU ARE QUEEN OF THE TWISTS. How did you put enough in ahead of time to make it feel natural but still twisty?
  • What is it like writing a sequel? Is it intimidating? Exciting?
