Seraphina
So far, I love the new antagonists, Seraphina in particular (I've always loved anything to do with dragons). However, I've been reading a book named after the main character, a young woman also called Seraphina, who happens to be half dragon.
I was wondering if you purposefully referenced the book 'Seraphina' with this new character, or if it was just a coincidence.

Re: Seraphina
It's probably a coincidence.
Seraphina is a Hebrew name which translates to 'Fiery-winged', which seems like a perfect name for a dragoness. Chances are that both writers had the same idea.

I had no idea about that. Thank you for the information.It's probably a coincidence.

Thank you for confirming that for me. I am a huge fan of both stories, and now I am even more eager to see how Thomas will play out his own Seraphina.Actually, Tom stated that Seraphina was the inspiration for Sarah

Re: Seraphina
I don't know why you didn't bother linking Tom's exact words, amenon. To wit: "Sarah" is short for "Seraphina." Like The Rookie said, chances are both writers had the same idea. Creative convergence is more common than call outs, to be honest.amenon wrote:Did he?gertok9 wrote:Actually, Tom stated that Seraphina was the inspiration for SarahThe Rookie wrote:It's probably a coincidence.

Such a display of cynicism! I thought there might have been another source, say, on twitter perhapsavwolf wrote:I don't know why you didn't bother linking Tom's exact words, amenon.

Re: Seraphina
If you've got a Twitter comment to link to, you can do that too, you know. Not being a twitterer or whatever coarse language variation one may choose to utilize, I really don't keep up on Tom's Twitter comments very effectively myself.amenon wrote:Such a display of cynicism!

Nor do I! And so we are back to my original question of 'Did he?'avwolf wrote:Not being a twitterer or whatever coarse language variation one may choose to utilize, I really don't keep up on Tom's Twitter comments very effectively myself.

Re: Seraphina
I am thinking that is is more of a coincidence now myself. Unless we learn that she is normally a really good person, I don't think there's much of a chance for her to be based off the character from the book I was reading. The Serephina from that one was often described as prickly, but she was very kind overall.
Tom's Serephina is just all kinds of angry. If she resembles any character in the book "Serephina" it would probably be Janoulla. Or Dame Ocra.
