Yo, so I was wondering how you research for the books you're writing? Does it come from already existing knowledge or do you research as you go along? Wew. Also, JDatE was seriously life changing. I don't know what it is about it but it changed my perspective on a lot of things. I use brute force to get everyone I meet (including my mum) to read it and when they do, they love it just as much (also including my mum) <3

David Wong In terms of research, this is one place where having a job helps me a lot, I'm working for a website (cracked.com, for those who somehow don't know) that specializes in tackling hard subjects in a humorous way, so the day to day tasks there require me to A) stay on top of current events and B) to endlessly give myself crash courses in various subjects - one day I might be editing an article about the Civil War, then that night have to edit a profile of the furry porn community. So I have to get at least a surface level understanding of thousands of different subjects (though I'm not an expert in anything).
