Ask me a question about my writing. Any story, or no particular story, general or specific, addressed to me or one of my characters. And then if you're a writer post this in your own journal.

Parallels
Date: 2005-02-25 05:29 pm (UTC)The emotional development in the latter third of Darkness and Light reminded me of Dorothy Sayers's later books, especially Gaudy Night and Busman's Honeymoon, when Peter and Harriet were being rewritten from the ground up. The redemptive theme is strong in her work as well. Does Sayers count as one of your influences?
Nice to hear from Maud again. I've been wondering what's going on in her head during the Snapelet fics.

I wasn't consciously intending a tribute in IWS, or even thinking of any parallels to the Wimsey books, but I'm not surprised if the parallels seem to be there.
