I go do something else, and then anytime from a few days to a few weeks later I got an "aha moment," where the answer will just come to me out of the blue.

Mannism: A Fictional Faith for a Fictional World

Early on in the development of what would eventually become “Noble: A Faerie Tale,” I had decided I wished to place the events of my story in a real historical context. I had recently seen “Ever After: A Cinderella Story,” and was fascinated by the idea of putting a faerie tale in the backdrop of a real historical event. As I had found out after seeing the movie, there really was a King Francis, a Read more of this blog post »
