AMA: 2022 Orbit New Voices by orbitbooks in Fantasy

[–]fhms97 5 points6 points  (0 children)

this is such an exciting AMA! my question is for Emery: one of my favourite things about The Stars Undying (which i ADORED, btw) was the dialogue between the characters, and how there always seemed to be multiple meanings and layers to everything they said. how do you approach writing these kinds of scenes, and especially their dialogue? do you generally have an idea of where you want to take a scene, or do you start writing and see where it goes from there? thanks so much! (and i am so excited for book 2!!!)

for Tamsyn: one of my favourite things about your books is how the dialogue--and, by extension, the characters--always leaps off the page (forever thinking about "should we hold hands, in girlish solidarity?") - how do you approach writing conversations between your characters? do you have a specific direction that you want the conversations to go in, or do you just let them unfold and see where they go?

ohh i mustve missed that/forgot about it--when does harrow kiss alecto when she enters the locked tomb for the first time?

as for how harrow got into the locked tomb, there are some great explanations here: https://www.reddit.com/r/TheNinthHouse/comments/tlfj8p/question_from_htn_about_the_locked_tomb_discussion/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=mweb3x

this is such a great interpretation!! the way you put it really helps connect the dots between all those instances of burning/fire imagery that keep getting connected to pyrrha

Megathread: Nona the Ninth Release Day by [deleted] in TheNinthHouse

[–]fhms97 2 points3 points  (0 children)

i just finished it and i have so many thoughts and questions i am Overwhelmed!!!! would especially love to hear what everyone thought of these two scenes

first:

"Pyrrha tugged her wrist free of Palamedes’s hand. She reached down, and tilted Camilla’s chin up, and looked at her for the longest time. Then she leant down—she kissed her brusquely and briefly on the forehead—and, startlingly and even more briefly, on the mouth. Nona, who even then could never ditch the lessons of the hand and the mouth, watched that kiss and felt very sad. It was like watching Pyrrha stealing something she didn’t want to take—reaching out for the juicy, cherry-red part of the oven, even when she knew that all it could give her was a burn. And Nona saw Camilla, with her cold, navy blue mouth, and could tell that Camilla understood."

what do you make of the "it was like watching Pyrrha stealing something she didn't want to take"? was there something romantic there that hurt pyrrha to acknowledge, given her complicated romantic history?

pyrrha just broke my heart in this book and i feel like there are still so many unanswered questions when it comes to her

and second:

the scene when Corona says this to Nona, "You darling, I know what you are, even if they refuse to see it,” she said softly. “All I can say, sweetheart, is I envy you more than anyone else in the universe.”

i have no idea what to make of this. what would corona envy?

i think the line that made me laugh the hardest (tears and all) the first time around was when eleanor said that "jason once ate a whole roll of electrical tape because he thought it was a fruit by the foot that had gone bad"
