Calligraphy still flourishes in the forms of wedding invitations (weddings are another area in which Stiefvator worked) and other event invitations. Calligraphy, which comes from ancient Greek, means beauty. Maggie has a flair for art of all kinds and weaving together a story of beauty and intrigue may be attributed to the patience she’s learned from writing calligraphy. It is here that we may note her attraction to beauty in writing style and acknowledgement of the power of the pen. As each chapter unfolds, we are drawn more and more into the history and depth of her characters as we experience their story as in the present moment. Each of her characters will have a detailed history with baggage and facets unknown to the reader and often unknown to the characters themselves. The appeal of her writing style is increased by the depth in which her characters are written. It perhaps inspires her writing style because she often strings together an absorbing tale which has many hidden and undiscovered past acts from which the characters in her stories will often draw. Her background education as history major reveals her curiosity for how the past has constructed the present and therefore influences future. As a true artist and creative being, you may observe how each of her careers and talents interchanged in a kind of ebb and flow to derive for the world a full synopsis of who Maggie Stiefvater is and will continue to be. Yet a cursory review of her life reveals that she has approached all of her careers and has discovered each of her talents with a sense of renewed vigor and enthusiasm. She has lived what she terms a ‘tumultuous’ life filled with ups and downs, ins and outs, wins and failures.
Maggie is no coward at living life to the fullest. Championing the Reins of Life, the Award-winning Author, Maggie Stiefvater Develops her Fictional Characters with the Same Kind of Zest.
