Shadowlark

The blend of dystopia and fantasy created a unique setting, but I'm curious how much of it was planned versus evolved during writing. Did the author imagine the entire world from the start?

The mix of technological and mystical themes felt fresh, but I'm wondering what sparked the idea to bring these two genres together in Shadowlark.

The relationship felt compelling but also complicated by the characters' roles in the dystopian society. Did others find it challenging to navigate their feelings alongside the political tension?
