Personally, my favorite Vicky Holmes' answer was about her favorite relationships and deaths, with her further saying "I find really happy and peaceful relationships boring and uninteresting. For example, to make Dustpelt and Ferncloud's relationship interesting I had to come up with a bunch of horrible deaths of their kits" xD I will never be able to read The New Prophecy without hearing that line in my head xD She mentions on Facebook that they are already planning her next visit^^ Hopefully they'll pick my city, it's the 3rd biggest in Poland. But damn... which book would I want to be signed next? Got my top 3 favorite (Crookedstar's Promise, Bluestar's Prophecy, and Bramblestar's Storm) signed already... hm... I suppose after those three my favorite is either The Sight or Sunset/Midnight... Sky was a great read^^ Now we have to wait 6 months for the next book, with nothing in between this time :/ Didn't like that "warrior name" thing, I had two pets in childhood plus 3-5 more since becoming an adult (2 are my brothers but until I had has cats of my own he would occasionally bring them over or even leave them with me for a few days so not sure if they count or not), can't really pick a favorite. Plus you could say I am not really happy with my suffix, "-flower" ^^; Honestly, that line in Squirrelflight's Hope never bothered me because that's an opinion of a character (who is dead at that) in the world where they have a confirmed afterlife, and if anything, Squirrelflight choosing to return to the world of the living despite the risk would mean that yes indeed such a life is worth living, but I digress. I get why people are unhappy with it, they could have worded it better the first time. (I'm actually more pissed that it seems that they killed Briarlight off two books earlier just so they could have this line there and make Squirrelflight's decision seem that much braver.) I read somewhere that this mistake about Ashfoot and Morningflower could be that apparently Victoria Holmes once said long ago that they were Onestar's siblings but born in an older litter. I have NO idea how could they fix this without massively changing the early chapters... or, well, just substituting two other names instead I suppose, though they would probably die offscreen, but then it would be weird how come they wouldn't give Onestar any of his lives, you would think your fellow apprentices would take part in it (like Brushpaw) I kept wondering if Bramblestar's Storm was fixed or not, I bought mine when it came out so naturally, I have the one with mistake xD Man, I remember waiting for it to arrive (back then I wouldn't buy e-book as well like I do now), and I saw Vicky Holmes' post about a mistake in Bramblestar's Storm that they would correct, and I was wondering what could it be, and yeah, recognized it when I saw it xD (btw, when I was getting Bramblestar's Storm signed by Victoria Holmes, I was VERY tempted to ask her to sign the page with that mistake xD)
Lol, yeah, I remember her joking that Jayfeather and his stick was a romance, so therefore it had to be doomed :P Nice, hope she comes to your town! The closest she ever came to me was about 3 hours away in my state, but at the time I was still pretty young and my parents weren’t interested in taking a day out of school/work to head down there. I like the previous versions of the warrior-name thing better, myself. The one that the site gave me back in 2005 was Icestar, and then when they put out the New Prophecy Quest game, it gave me the warrior name of Icefire which I really like.
@@DawnwingWC Hadn't heard of that xD But this reminds me, the whole Jayfeather x Stick was brought up as something the fandom came up with that she really loves... aaand later, the last question that was asked was "You said if you were a cat you'd be a medicine cat. Does that mean you wouldn't have a mate and kits?" To which Victoria Holmes replied: "I would have a stick" which is just a whole other level of funny xD Thanks^^ Oh, sorry to hear that :/ Hope she or one of the other Erins visits somewhere close to you soon^^ I don't think I even remember the previous warrior-name things ^^; Nice names though, always thought Ice-name would sound cool in Warriors; as you can imagine I was really excited when Icecloud appeared in the series^^ Aaaaand then they killed her off off-screen. Hope in the next series we get a POV with Ice-preffix, there hadn't yet been an all white POV character after all (I think)
For the anniversary I'd like too see them confirm a white or calico protagonist in the arc after this on IF there is an arc after this on. We've had way to many grey blue eyed cats! A calico or white cat would be a needed change. Also they should say if there will be an arc after a starless clan.
Yeah, seems they’ve had so many gray or ginger protagonists (Jayfeather, Gray Wing, Clear Sky, Twigbranch, Stormfur for one TNP book, Dovewing, Bristlefrost, Shadowsight, Firestar, Squirrelflight, Lionblaze, Alderheart, Thunder, etc). White or calico would definitely be a welcome change!
Yay!
your videos always make my day, dawn :)
Aww, thank you! I’m glad you’re enjoying them! 🥰

My warrior cat name would be
Wrenlight
Mine would be Stormheart
