I feel like I’m always scrambling to keep up with [ND]’s giant brain (in a good way; I hope the feeling is mutual) and we bounce ideas off each other constantly. There’s some of me in ''She-Ra'', and some of [ND] in the ''Witch Boy'' series, but being in constant conversation means that our voices have been able to diverge and grow and be strengthened by one another. [ND] is incredible with characters and humor; I’m good at world building and story structure; and we’ve both learned a lot from each other in the last five years. I feel lucky every day."
