I've been doing lots of research—which, when you're writing fantasy isn't so much looking information up as it is thinking long and hard to work out and invent obscure but still accurate world details. I completely understand why J.K. Rowling keeps coming out with Wizarding World content; I can't … Continue reading Odds & Ends 9/23-9/29
