“I didn’t feel like I wanted to be where I was sometimes growing up, and so escaping into these worlds [like the Lord of the Rings] was a place where I could go and feel like I was meant to be.” #SALMcQuiston

[SAL @SeaArtsLectures]

“Sometimes [character backstory] is the demands of setting, sometimes it’s the demands of plot, but I always want to feel like their life goes on beyond the page.” #SALMcQuiston

[SAL @SeaArtsLectures]

“I’m toying with the idea of going into a romantasy era.” #SALMcQuiston

[SAL @SeaArtsLectures]

“I was writing to chase the way that queerness can be about being really embodied and open to your desires.” #SALMcQuiston
