I just want to know if the Tiger’s Bride elements of la bête’s story were purposeful or if it’s me having read too much beauty and the beast lore

The tiger will never lie down with the lamb; he acknowledges no pact that is not reciprocal. The lamb must learn to run with the tigers.

“Mom, can we have Guiding Star?”

“We have Guiding Star at home”

Guiding Star at home:

#it’s that season again! I had so much fun actually #starting with the green suit I cannot believe they just made the sunflower suit AGAIN #the winter suit was hard mainly bc the big brooch item actually carries the entire thing. and without it you can see how mine falls flat #the ink tiger suit is nice but so over the place color wise so I tried my best #bride suit is the first one I went for in the event but I’ll be honest she isn’t all that…we have plenty of big bridal gowns #ranking by uniqueness; winter-ink-bride-green #I tried my best with the 2D live and I think the only thing I got right was the color of the eyes and the hand pose #she is very gorgeous but 30k for her? never #love nikki #hell event at home #budget styling #love nikki dress up queen #lnduq #vee styles

Yangsze Choo in conversation - St. Louis 2/21/24

Yangsze Choo is one of my favorite authors (The Ghost Bride is one of my favorite books ever) and last week she came to STL for her The Fox Wife book tour! I wrote up a little summary of the things she said about herself and her novels for anyone interested.

Her name is pronounced Yong-shee

She was warm, humble, funny, gracious, relaxed, and genuinely kind

She is very petite (I'd be surprised if she clears 5') and has a lovely, precise British accent reminiscent of Julie Andrews because she attended British schools when growing up

While she currently lives in California, she is Malaysian and spent parts of her childhood in Germany and Japan

This was her first time visiting Missouri and she only had the kindest things to say about it (this was heartwarming to everyone in attendance since flyover states get no love)

She is a slow writer and her drafts always have an excessively large word count

She never uses outlines "because I don't think like that" and blames her slow writing on this; her husband says if she would use outlines maybe there would be "less howling and rolling on the floor"

"There are thousands of good books that people could be reading. I am honored that people choose to read mine."

The Ghost Bride

One of her favorite scenes is the first chapter

She wrote a trial scene in the Courts of Hell but it was cut for wordcount

Pre-publication, she figured only her "mother and her hairdresser" would read it

Her older sister's feedback on a draft was that there wasn't enough romance and that what there was "is creepy"; her father's feedback was that it didn't read like classic literature; "With a family like this, who needs critics?"

She wanted to be the audiobook reader because many of the Malaysian words in the book have a specific pronunciation; she had to audition to do it "because usually voice actors do this unless you're Neil Gaiman"; the audition was in a studio in New York the day after Neil himself had been there ("I was like 'Can I touch everything that he touched?'")

She was in Trader Joe's when she got the call from her agent that Netflix wanted to make a screen adaptation - "'Give it to them! Give it to them!'"

She wasn't interested in writing the screenplay for the Netflix adaptation - "Novel writing and screenwriting are very different things."

She didn't have a problem with the book's ugly villain being played by a handsome actor - "That's Hollywood"

The Night Tiger

Her audiobook recording was an Audie Award Finalist - "My publisher says I should tell people that more often."

The Fox Wife

It is a story about "others", "what's on the other side of the door", first love, and is "a love story for old people"

Her favorite Austen is Persuasion and that inspired the elements of "regret and do-overs"

She said most ancient Chinese myths about foxes are about the human men who subdue the beautiful, wily female foxes and bear sons by them who pass the Imperial Exams; she wanted a story from the fox's point of view

She wrote it practically in the order that it reads and wrote the two timelines concurrently

The margins are wide and include footnotes because ancient Chinese scrolls had margins for readers to write notes in, which were incorporated into rewrites of those scrolls; this was also a way for women to engage with other female readers in a time when only men could gather to discuss literature and philosophy

She loves the footnotes in Jonathan Strange and Mr. Norrell and was inspired to include asides/short stories in the footnotes of her own novel

Her first draft was 240,000 words long - she had to cut the bulk of the footnotes, a whole character, an entire arc, and "another murder"

She calls herself 'an old auntie' and doesn't know who the hot Asian actors are today, but her fancast for Kuro is Toshiro Mifune

If she could spend the day as any of her characters she would be Snow because she's "always wanted to run along rooftops and along garden walls"

Her favorite scene is—(looking at my bookmark at the halfway point) "Well, I won't spoil it for you. I love the last scene."

4th novel

It's about plants because she loves plants - she regularly listens to the NPR gardening podcast

She has always thought that ginseng root looks like a human baby; this book will be about a ginseng root that is a fairy changeling

At heart it's about parenthood

#yangsze choo #the fox wife #the ghost bride #the night tiger #i almost cheered out loud when she said toshiro mifune bc he was specifically how i'd been imagining kuro

John Finnemore's Double Acts Series 1 Bath Company Lore:

Episode 1: A Flock of Tigers - Willard mentions that his company makes baths, and by the end of the episode has learned about how better to connect with his son.

Episode 2&3: WYSINWYG/Red-handed. Concerns the employees of the sales team of the bath company Willard & Son.

Episode 6: Hotdesk. Concerns the receptionist and security guard at Willard & Son, with an off-mike cameo by Adele from episode 2.

#I didn't notice the name Willard in episodes 1&6 until I relistened to all the episodes in the series #very close together #it means Mr Willard and his son set up the business together 🥺 hopefully that means their relationship improved to what it was pre-Tigers #or Mr Willard bullied his son into it crushing his own ambitions #ALSO I have another post about it but we do hear the other mother of the bride's speech #which is in the background of The Rebel Alliance #in a later episode of JFSP #it's the John Finnemore Radiogenic Universe #John Finnemore's Double Acts

"Even though there was a fashion for seal fur in the capital when In-yo became the empress in truth, there never was a dress like this one again. There could never be. Is it beautiful, but every stitch bites into her history, the deaths she left behind her, and the home she could not return to."

- The Empress of Salt and Fortune by Nghi Vo

#The Empress of Salt and Fortune #Nghi Vo #I reread Empress and will reread Tiger because I need to catch up on Riverlands and Mammoths before Brides comes out.#When I go away from her novellas for a while I forget how phenomenal her writing in them is.
