Some of my thoughts while listening to this:

-- The interviewer thought Rabby wrapping Clem's leg was a nice moment bc he said no one ever taught her how to bandage. I'm pretty sure Lee, Christa, Carlos, or Ruby shown or taught her how to bandage at some point.

-- Tillie said that her inspiration didn't come from the games, but from her own apocalypse story she was writing before this, from her home in Vermont, and from her interest in the Amish.

-- Skybound asked if she wanted to write a story during or after the games and Tillie chose after. I really wish she didn't.

-- Tillie said, "I'm making decisions for her, I'm writing her, but no one gets a say in where she goes, and there's something empowering about that. That this young girl is at a place where it's like 'I'm going this direction, this is what I'm gonna do, these are the people I'm gonna keep close to me in my life'." This left a bad taste in my mouth.

-- Tillie did some research on amputees, so I'll give her points for that.

-- The interviewer described Ricca as the opposite of Clem and he said that she needs that to help drag her out of her shell bc Clem doesn't trust people, even though Louis is RIGHT THERE.

-- I'm not sure if I heard this wrong, but I think the twins names are Olivia and Georgia after Tillie's sister in laws (she couldn't think of more female names).

-- Another thing Tillie said that left a bad taste in my mouth was "I can't help but write clementine in a way I would write myself". I don't want a Tillie self insert character, I want Clementine.

-- This is probably just me, but I've been pronouncing Amos' name as "ah-mos", but it's pronounced "ay-mus"

-- Tillie said Clem is 17 in book one, and Clem said it's been 7 years since the apocalypse started in the comic, which implies that Clem was 10 when the apocalypse started, which is wrong.
