jamesbondsmith He/him Posted September 7, 2025 Posted September 7, 2025 Hi, I've posted in the Writing excuses forum a couple of times about a book set in a world which basically takes a culinary view of vampire hunting (garlic galore). I've been slowly working on that between other projects and my day job, and I was thinking of adding werewolves to it but I was wondering if it might get too busy. I can't think of many ingredients that are traditional werewolf weaknesses (unless I just take things that ordinary dogs can't eat like chocolate) so I was thinking of taking the 'silver' part of silverware literally and focusing on more of an etiquette standpoint in terms of weaknesses. I thought it could also tie into the Vampire Rich/Werewolves Poor tropes.
AltonicKeys he/him Posted September 9, 2025 Posted September 9, 2025 I for one love this. I'm always a fan of culinary folklore. There's stories galore of ancient dishes that I love hearing about. Your interpretations of things feel fresh and new, it's a fun break from traditional "They're weak because I said so" stuff. LOVE the idea of etiquette and caste coming into play, really adds depth and a human aspect. Are there any sneak-peeks or snippets available to read yet? I'm really interested in this premise, and I'm excited to see where it goes!
