JauVon

Agatha Christie

I'm not sure how to put it into words, but her writing style seeped into our core and has never left. And perhaps there's a tiny Hercule Poirot out there, toddling around JauVon looking for something tasty, and solving a mystery or two while he's at it.

Jane Austen

Jane Austen's sharp wit and subtly biting commentary on society and relationships have shaped Vie culture in many ways. The art of polite conversation, the delicate dance of social status, and the occasional, well-placed sarcastic remark are all hallmarks of Vie society, where everything is handled with both grace and a little hidden humor. Austen's influence lives on in how the Vie navigate their world with a quiet yet razor-sharp awareness of each other's roles.

The Brontë Sisters

The Brontë sisters' influence on is fairly evident. JauVon is a setting where long-winded, emotionally charged letters are practically an art form. Their novels, filled with deeply personal and sometimes unnecessarily complicated dialogues, have given birth to a rich tradition of verbose and proper communication.

Piers Anthony

And then there's Piers Anthony, namely the Xanth series. Because if I'm not laughing at what I'm doing I see little point in doing it. The way the fabric of reality is so closely tied to what's believed about said reality, and how even then thing's aren't always what you think they are has definitely shaped my way of writing and how I build as well.
