About this author


Jessica, the Hopelessly devoted Bibliophile, interviewed Tea and Finn at her blog!


Jessica: Since Teagan is running a little late, I'll start with a question for you, Finn. What do you like most about Teagan?

Finn: I'm intending to be... read more »

1 chapters   —   updated Nov 05, 2010 11:03am
Description: I capture each character, great or small, in a short story. These ‘character studies’ never make it into the book, but they help me keep each character’s voice clear and distinct. By the time Tyger Tyger, Teagan Wylltson’s story, takes place, Ida Mac Cumhaill is an old, old woman. But she wasn’t always that way. This is Ida’s story.

“Me, poor man, my library
Was dukedom large enough.”
William Shakespeare, The Tempest

“Congratulations on the new library, because it isn't just a library. It is a space ship that will take you to the farthest reaches of the Universe, a time machine that will take you to the far past and the far future, a teacher that knows more than any human being, a friend that will amuse you and console you---and most of all, a gateway, to a better and happier and more useful life.”
Isaac Asimov
