Nia asked Penelope Douglas:

Hey! If you had a chance to rewrite one of your stories' character's arc or change their narrative in the plot for some reason, who would be the one and why?

Penelope Douglas Great question, Nia <3

I think there's something in every book I'd probably change, but as far as retelling a character's story, I think Madoc. I didn't get to stick to my original plan for that story, and I was also on such a tight deadline, I look back on his story as not as amazing to me as I would've liked. Many people loved it, and I'm grateful for that, because I did work my tush off with the time allotted, but given more time to dream and with the experience I have now, I know I could've done something more up to the standard I hold for myself now.

Thank you for the question.

Suzana Thompson asked Penelope Douglas:

Did the published version of Bully differ very much from your first draft? Did you rewrite parts of the story or just fix spelling errors? Bully is one of my two favorite love/hate books ever, and I wondered if it came to you on the first go, or if you had to tinker with it to make it that good.

Do you listen to the music on the playlists while you write? Do you create them before, during, or after you write the book? Do songs come to mind while you are writing a part of the book or do some songs inspire sections in the book?
