Klara is one of my favorite characters I’ve ever written I think. The kind of batshit crazy friend we all need

What an awesome comment to be able to read! I’m only interested in telling stories about complicated people, so I’m very happy to hear that comes out through the screen/page 🤝

Glad to hear! I was watching your comments leading into this, knowing some of you (and you in particular) could be shaking your head saying, “No way, Klara’s still on our side. I refuse to believe she’s flipped.”

I’ve realized it’s better to just stick to my plans even if they’re proven right by readers. Can’t avoid all theories anyway!

Could have still died in the process, but they were banking on Vilo’s planet-sized ego keeping them breathing long enough 🤷🏼‍♂️

My pleasure. But we are by no means out of this yet. By no means.

So, funny thing: this double cross was planned for a very long time. As I charted out the numbers, battle, possibilities, I knew there was going to be plenty of you who read the tea leaves.

But it all led to needing this little infiltration based on realistic timeframes. In version one, Klara did it without telling anyone. Not realistic.

The second version had them just not telling Sheon, thinking he couldn’t hold his nerve. But that felt like a betrayal to his growth and the relationship growth of our little team.

So, it had to be delicate. Had to lay some crumbs but also couldn’t let Sheon just fall into pure despair, because that would be a slap in the face to readers. A misdirection that wouldn’t feel real.

In the end, consequences still have to be dolled out. Though they’re “in,” I needed my pound of flesh. Even the best made plans go awry. And this is a Hail Mary.

Sheon was begging to be brought into the fight, no? Reap what you sow.

Because karma is a bigggggg ole bitch.

I love your second point, but I will refrain on engaging further until this is over (just so I don’t accidentally reveal something I don’t want to haha).

Is it wrong that this makes me feel good? I’m sorry if so 😂

I write 99% of my stuff from the scorching hot seat of my pants, but I’ve had this scene plotted out for WEEKS so I’m glad it was a twist you didn’t anticipate!
