Clockwork Princess spoiler
So Tessa won her match against Izzy (poor Izzy - *tear*) which means a Clockwork Princess spoiler. [The next match is Clary vs. Hermione which I expect to be seriously brutal! But now it’s time to rest from the battle and enjoy a spoiler from CP2.)
Clockwork Princess — last spoiler of 2011!
Jem drew the bow back and let the arrow fly; it struck the creature in the side. The massive demon...
muggle-but-not-mundie asked: Was wondering; in one of your CoLS spoilers, when Magnus says to Izzy that he's known parabatai so close and asks her if she knows what happens to the other when one dies, is he talking about Jem and Will?

More love triangle bizness. Clockwork Prince.
So first I would say: yes, all the Will/Tessa people seem convinced she will end up with Jem, and all the Jem/Tessa people convinced she will end up with Will. This seems to be the nature of love triangles!
Second: I think there are a lot of love triangles where there is a clear favorite or frunt-runner (Clary always obviously was in love with...
unidentified snippet
The body sank without a trace, and Sebastian forgot it before it had even sunk all the way. He saw the curled fingers, bobbing in the currents as if restored to life and begging for help or at least answers, and thought of his dream. His sister, and a sea of blood.

Will and Jem and secrets.
Well, do either of you have a secret that, if anyone else found out about it, might result in killing a whole bunch of people you care about?
I mean, I don’t want to assume! Maybe you do! I like to think that my readers live VERY EXCITING LIVES because I definitely don’t! But in the case of Will and Jem: it’s precisely because Will loves Jem (and the...
YA Tournament of Heroines: Tessa vs. Izzy
Well, this is a SITUATION, as Jace would say. Over at the YA Tournament of Heroines, the latest match is between … Tessa and Izzy!
Vote HERE.
The upside is that, I suppose, whoever wins, there’ll be a spoiler, either from CoLS (if Izzy) or Clockwork Princess (if it’s Tessa).
The downside is, I love both my girls (of course I do, I am biased) and I cannot even fathom who to...

More Jem/Will/Tessa LOVE stuff!
SAYS he is in love with Tessa? Oooh…burn. :)
This is a bit more difficult to explain (in my mind) than why Jem didn’t notice Will loved Tessa (though I get asked that more!) — not because there’s a not a valid reasons but because it isn’t as concrete as “Will was hiding it, no?” Jem wasn’t hiding it. And yet, Will...
moon-rise asked: Hello! I've barely just finished CP, and I know you get a lot of praise for this already, but its amazing how you've crafted a love triangle what isn't trite and where the reader honestly feels as torn between the two suitors as our protagonist does. I'm really glad you created this series because they are a bloody joy! So thank-you so Miss Clare. I also wanted to say that as...
vivalapomegranates-deactivated2 asked: OKOKOK so while rereading the TMI series, I came across this part in CoG where Amatis tells Jace that he inherited some kind of scar which a Herondale ancestor got from an angel. And Will's Herondale. Soooo does Will have the scar/mark? I haven't read CP YET so I'm not sure if that comes up there. But does the mark have anything to do with Will? uughhh sorry for wording its so...
CoLS Spoiler
So Clary won her Tournament of Heroines match yesterday!
Things are going to get tough in the future. Major badasses to face. Hermione! Katniss!
But for the moment, let’s enjoy the victory and a snippet from City of Lost Souls.

Maryse took a shuddering breath. “I know I should show it to the Clave,” she said. “But they are hunting Jace. They will kill him if they find him. And yet...
unidentified snippet
She looked at the boy. He was pale as milk, his blue eyes startling against so much white skin and the darkness of his hair and eyelashes. He was long-legged, slender as a willow branch, but strong: a very pretty boy, even to her, who looked at human beings and saw mortality and rot.
Tournament of Heroines: Clary vs. Meghan
I realize I have been remiss in not mentioning so far today that CLARY IS UP AGAINST MEGHAN IN THE TOURNAMENT OF HEROINES.
You can vote for her here. Just scroll down, and click to vote.
Now, Meghan is an excellent heroine and Iron Fey is an excellent series. But there is a very important reason you need to vote for Clary.
It’s not just because if she wins this match, I’ll post a...
bookishsleeplessnights asked: There's a Japanese/Brazilian model that reminds me of Jem. His name is Sandro Takeo. And he's hot :)

Tessa, Will, hearts.
P. 244 in my US hardback. Will reflects on his opium dream.
He had dreamed he was lying on a hill in Wales with the sky high and blue overhead, and that Tessa had come walking up the hill to him and had sat down beside him.
I love you, he had said to her, and kissed her, as if it were the most natural thing in the world. Do you love me?
She had smiled at him. You will...
on adulthood
I would just like to say: when I was a kid, I used to worry that when I “grew up” I would have to abandon all geeky enthusiasms and pursuits, and become really boring, and interested in things like mortgages. But considering that I just got back from watching Sherlock Holmes: Game of Shadows and realized I still buy Twizzlers so I can bite both ends off and use them as a straw (is that...
smilethruthe-payne asked: not as much as a question than a compliment. just wanted to say that both TMI and ID are AMAZING and they really got me into reading paranormal books! congrats on two very successful series and i cant wait till city of lost souls!... any idea when we get to see the cover?!
derekmale asked: My friend didn't know that she was reading the last page of Clockwork Prince. When she found out she started screaming, wore her book as a hat, grabbed a box of Pot of Gold and began shoving them in her mouth. It was messy. Just thought you should know. On another note, I was wondering what book you're currently writing right now. Is it TID or TMI? :D
julietish-deactivated20121006 asked: Why are parabatai not allowed to fall in love? What is the deal for love when it comes to the Silent Brothers or Iron Sisters?

CoLS Teaser/Clockwork Princess teaser
Thanks so much to everyone who voted for Izzy and Tessa in the heroine tournament! As they both won their respective matches, you know what that means … spoiler time! If you have not read CoFA or Clockwork Prince… be careful!

Will, Tessa, the balcony scene, and warlock drugs.
Okay. Well, the first thing I will say is that I don’t tend to follow discussions about my books here on tumblr, or read the character tags, because I want people to be able to have the discussions they’re having without feeling like THE GREAT EYE IS EVER WATCHFUL. Talk about what you want, theorize as you want, opine as you want —...
sonyaal-deactivated20120106 asked: i love Will and Jem and Tessa and i think they should become polygamists and get married :P

Remember that if Izzy wins, there’ll be a spoiler from City of Lost Souls. If Tessa wins, there’ll be a Clockwork Princess spoiler. If they both win — then there’ll be both spoilers!

The Tournament of Heroines: the poll
It’s interesting to see the poll results about what people would want to read if Tessa wins the Tournament of Heroines! Right now things are leaning heavily JemTessa-ward, but there’s the rest of the day to vote so that could change!

More on love. Looooove.
Well, first off, if Tessa didn’t believe she loved Jem, she would never have accepted his proposal. Secondly, I don’t think “I want him to be happy” and “Gotta squash those Will-feelings” were all she was thinking — “She felt as if someone had reached inside her chest and unlocked a box that held her heart, spilling tenderness...
