The story really felt like it came into its own, breathing new life into an old story and just letting the world and story explode. Loved it but hated it (not because it was bad, only because i dont want it to end the way it did.) After ruling for a century, I expected her to have harder edges and to be more mature and jaded than Aurora, someone more evil and closer to the movies Maleficent.

The only time that Ive had any kind of a negative experience. I think what she wanted was she had ideas of her own, and she wanted to implement them. And I was like, Oh, it could be fun if like, I wrote a story where Ive got the graces, but then Ive got this one who doesnt fit in, I keep all of my ideas in like a note, and so when I was thinking about this story is kind of going back and looking at it. But I didnt fully anticipate I felt a lot of pressure to give readers the story they deserved and to get out of the story that she deserved. I loved feeling like I was thrown into the world. At times you felt she was winning and finding her feet and then a new betrayal or action would put her back at square one. And then one that I always recommend, especially if youre fans of Malice is The Jasmine Throne by Tasha Suri, which is so good. Theres obviously things that lead up to, and again, just with Alice about how its not like she didnt get invited to a party, or you know, the original theory back there, like didnt get invited to a party. And so from there, I think its going to be the fastest novela Ill ever have written. What can people anticipate from Misrule?

And I was like, okay, like this could work because Alice is the grace who doesnt fit into the graces as we think of them as being beautiful and perfect, whatever its like so this could potentially work but then again, and every single Sleeping Beauty retelling, we have the good fairies, and then we have the single Dark Fairy and so the good fairies grant these attributes of beauty with grace, all of that and so I liked the idea of calling them the graces because they are gifted that way each one of them has a specific breed of magic that Oh, I can I can make you an elixir for beauty or you know, this, that whatever.
