Research

Apr 5, 2009

This week, I’m planning to do research, one of my favourite parts of writing, actually.  My new Urban Fantasy novel takes place here in Scotland, and now it’s time for me to find some of the more magical spots in the countryside including some of the hundreds of standing stones, stone circles, henges, cairns and various prehistoric to Bronze Age rocks.  I also want to visit some castle ruins, but for my story, the older the better and castles are way too modern for my current purposes.  But, yanno, I’m a sucker for castles.

I’ve also gotten a ton of fairy research info from my wonderful new friend @inkgypsy and I will no doubt be plundering her vast knowledge of folklore even more over the coming weeks.

I’m so thrilled and excited about how things are coming together. (Not to mention how great it feels to be working on something new!)
