==Trivia==
Steven Erikson created a mock up cover featuring Tangle-Witch for The God is Not Willing that became the basis for the final cover illustration by artist Steve Stone. In the process, Erikson kept sending notes to Stone asking him to "beef up" her figure on the cover. "She's got to be bigger. And I don't mean just tall, she's got to be a substantial figure up there. And I almost sense I was really twisting his arm on that one," he laughed, "because he kept coming [back where] she was maybe gaining half an inch each version."Chatting With Nutts - Episode #18 ft Steven Erikson - The Fantasy Nuttwork - See 1:41:55
