 Q: What do you think is the strongest
image/scene from The Last Will? Why? (Jeanne
Kisacky)
TW: One of the biggest determining
factors for me when weighing the benefits of turning Unbounded, which
I’d originally intended as a romance, into The
Last Will of Moira Leahy, a broader work of women’s
fiction, was considering which scenes were most important
to the book: Were they between Maeve and Noel, detailing
a love story, or were they centered on Maeve and her
relationship with her twin? I knew immediately which
scene I couldn’t live without, and it had nothing whatsoever
to do with Noel. Without offering a spoiler, I’ll tell
you that it was the last shown scene between Maeve
and Moira—the scene that inspired the cover image,
actually. That scene became my guiding light as I rewrote
the book and fully explored Moira’s story, and it remains
the strongest in the book for me. It was one of only
two scenes that essentially survived the slaughter
of the romance version of the book.
