Birthday giveaway #2: The FAQ Challenge.

So as you may have noticed, I love FAQs. I love writing them, I love updating them, and I love pointing people to them. With that in mind, we come to our second giveaway for the day:

Here is the current October Daye FAQ. You may notice that it's pretty sparse. That's why I'm turning to you, my best-beloved people who live free things, to ask for more questions. Be creative, be specific, be general, be pedantic, be whatever makes you happy, but ask questions.

I will be adding the best questions to the FAQ. I will also be selecting two winners from out those questions. One will receive a signed copy of Rosemary and Rue (and if you already have one, I can send a copy to your local high school or library).

One will receive a signed ARC of A Local Habitation.

I'll take entries until tomorrow morning. Now please, please, question me! Get rewarded! Flesh out my website! I'll be your bestest blonde if you will...

First, Happy Birthday!!

Regarding the scent signature of an individual's magic, do all people who can perceive magic smell this signature or is this something unique to Toby? Can anyone smell magic or just people who can perceive magic? And finally, riffing on/repeating a couple of previous questions asked by others, how unique is the scent signature? Is it like a fingerprint, no two alike? Can it be forged or altered or otherwise made to smell like someone else?
Thank you!

Everyone perceives the scents, but some get them more strongly than others. Technically, it's a function of blood magic, so Toby gets the smell a lot more intensely than, say, Connor. The scent signature is totally unique, and basically a fingerprint; if it can be faked, Toby has no idea how.
