All right. I thought that I should have a thread for any questions that anyone wishes to ask me (and possibly other future authors).

I reserve the right to refuse to answer due to spoilers, because I'd prefer to leave that undecided at this point or because I consider the question incredibly personal, but there's a good chance I can give the information you want.

Go ahead!

I have a question!

Why did you decide to name it "The Truthseekerverse"?

(I must have missed the explanation on the TVT thread.)

Okay, seriously, as was pointed out by one of my proofreaders (Not-Murphy), one of the major themes of the central stories of the verse is the theme of "discovery" and that I should use that in the title. This is true not just for the first three fics, but for A Debt to the Stars, The Last Use of Antlers, A Talon in Diplomacy and even in a fic where the discovery is happening more for the villians.

The Handle suggested the name, and I realised that it fit really well and allowed my ending for fic three to be less pretentious, which is a good thing.

Also, my need to have long, complicated titles with nouniting theme made things difficult.

(Honestly, the spoiler isn't big, and I'd give it out if I knew how to make spoiler tags here.)
