Character Profile and Interview: Chang

 Introduction

When I’ve written character profiles and interviews before, I’ve always put them on one page along with a spoiler alert. However, in order to ask the best questions of each character, I had to reveal key plot points in either the questions or the answers, so for the character profiles and interviews for Terra Sea Merge, they will be split between here and my website. At the end, you’ll find a link to a private post page on my website with the interview portion of the post that you’ll need a password to access. The password will come from a line in the book. At the bottom of each post, I’ll specify where it can be found.
