I read HOWL'S MOVING CASTLE for the first time earlier this week, and I never met Diana Wynne Jones, I have no special insight on her writing process, but I feel like I can say after reading this book that there was no plot pantser who ever pantsed like Jones.
Lovely, hilarious, & I do recommend!

But it's funny how when it was Kathleen Wynne, critics blamed her for absolutely everything.

NGL ... it was localisation/ localization in the US American edition of a Diana Wynne Jones book (in Witch Week, editors substituted basketball for netball--two different sports).
TIL (actually, YIL) that one of my biggest bugbears in books--the maddening tendency of USAian copyeditors to Americanize spelling, idioms, and even nouns (e.g., netball to basketball) in British authors' writing--has a name.
"Localization." Or "localisation," I suppose. (1/2)

Compare-and-contrast is that in the run-up to 2015 Trudeau put a lot of effort into building relationship with provincial counterparts which culminated in Kathleen Wynne endorsing him early in the election campaign, which IMV the was the first thing that really made him look like a serious contender

I wonder if this will be the first majority-to-zero provincial election. Outdid the Wynne Minivan and even the Mulroney/Campbell two-seater.

The Dark Lord of Derkholme, Archer's Goon, and Dogsbody are good isekai-adjacent books by Diana Wynne Jones.

I was also going to suggest Chrestomanci / Diana Wynne Jones, though it looks like most of her books in audio form are abridged? The Dark Lord of Derkholm is in audio unabridged, as is Howl’s Moving Castle though that might be a bit much romance?

Garth Nix did an interesting 'Keys to the Kingdom' series, might be something they'd like- there are audiobooks iirc.
Or Diana Wynne Jones 'Chrestomanci' series perhaps?

Noting that Diana Wynne Jones not only wrote far better magic-school books, she only ever referred to JKR in my earshot as 'that bloody woman'.

It’s fantasy Arabia, but there’s Castle in the Air by Diana Wynne Jones. The whole thing is a pastiche of the stories from the Arabian Nights, and It’s also a sequel to Howell’s Moving Castle.
