It’s got to be a bit disconcerting to have your story “pins” flying in “wild directions.” Did that happen when you were writing Sophia’s War, too? I really liked the balance you achieved between realistic detail and movement of the plot. You make setting “pins” look easy but I have a feeling I would be surprised at the number of decisions you have to make to craft a story that seems effortless and natural.
