I liked how the 1978 book Beauty by Robin McKinley and the Disney version made Beauty bookish, so I kept that. Plus, I wanted to keep the main theme that a person needed to express their heart and mind to become worth loving, so I used that too.
There is also a mirror involved in the original fairy tale that helps bring Beauty and the Beast back together at the end, so I found a way for a mirror—without all the cool magical stuff involved—to bring them back together at the end of my tale as well. And that’s how Shaw and Isobel’s story became Shaw and Isobel’s story!
