About a year ago, I was researching names for a completely unrelated series and stumbled across the word "cochall." It was on an Irish name website, and the site said it meant "hood."
"Hm!" I thought to myself. "That would be a cool last name for a Little Red Riding Hood retelling." I then proceeded to look for Irish names meaning "red" or something similar. Soon, I found the name "Roisin (pronounced RO-sheen)," which means "Little Red Rose."
"HMMM!!!!" I thought to myself. "What if... I blended the stories of Little Red Riding Hood and Beauty and the Beast?"
And A Wolf's Rose was born.(less)

C.S. Lewis
“If we find ourselves with a desire that nothing in this world can satisfy, the most probable explanation is that we were made for another world.”
C.S. Lewis

J.R.R. Tolkien
“And thou, Melkor, shalt see that no theme may be played that hath not its uttermost source in me, nor can any alter the music in my despite. For he that attempteth this shall prove but mine instrument in the devising of things more wonderful, which he himself hath not imagined.”
J.R.R. Tolkien, The Silmarillion

J.R.R. Tolkien
“For like a shaft, clear and cold, the thought pierced him that in the end the Shadow was only a small and passing thing: there was light and high beauty for ever beyond its reach.”
J.R.R. Tolkien, The Return of the King

C.S. Lewis
“Imagine yourself as a living house. God comes in to rebuild that house. At first, perhaps, you can understand what He is doing. He is getting the drains right and stopping the leaks in the roof and so on; you knew that those jobs needed doing and so you are not surprised. But presently He starts knocking the house about in a way that hurts abominably and does not seem to make any sense. What on earth is He up to? The explanation is that He is building quite a different house from the one you thought of - throwing out a new wing here, putting on an extra floor there, running up towers, making courtyards. You thought you were being made into a decent little cottage: but He is building a palace. He intends to come and live in it Himself.”
C.S. Lewis, Mere Christianity

J.R.R. Tolkien
“Living by faith includes the call to something greater than cowardly self-preservation.”
J.R.R. Tolkien, J.R.R. Tolkien 4-Book Boxed Set: The Hobbit and The Lord of the Rings
