Robin C asked M.L. Rio:

Hello! I just wanted to say I just finished your book & I absolutely adored it! It left me sobbing when I finished it (in a good way). I have two quick questions for you: Do you have a favorite & least favorite character in IWWV, & was the plot in the first draft for IWWV a lot different than the current story (different characters, setting, events, etc.)? Have a lovely day :)

M.L. Rio So glad to hear you loved the book. I don't really have favorite or least favorite characters--for me the group dynamics are what really make the magic, and they don't work without everyone. As for changes between drafts, I'm a very thorough outliner so the overarching plot didn't change, but we made a couple of significant scene-specific changes in the revision process.

I just finished reading IWWV I love it so much. I was wondering if there was ever an alternate end that you waned to go for? Did you know how the story was going to end when you started writing, or did to get to it while writing?

Hi, I absolutely LOVED If We Were Villains, and honestly, that title is so perfect! I was just wondering how you came up with such an amazing title. Why removed the 'as' from the original quote? Why keep the 'if'? Also the characters and plot and ENDING, everything was amazing about this book! I can't wait for more from you <33
