I might be rethinking what I'm writing about in November. The hubby pointed out that I've got a novel planned out already and wouldn't it make more sense to write that?

Gah! I hate it when he talks sense! rolleyes.gif

So, what I *might* do is write the Millie and Gregor prequel to the Elenarda series. This is stemming back to when Great Aunt Millie (as we see her in 'The Crimson Dawn') was a young girl and what happens when she breaks through into Elenarda.

I know Becky will appreciate it, because Gregor is part-elf, and it's something I've had on the back boiler for a while. Suppose I'd better get researching 1940s England a bit. Millie would have been a teenager through the war years, and although I know bits it's not a period of history I've ever studied.

Anyone know anything?

Hmm, all that I really know about the 1940s is limited to the clothes that they wore! But I'm sure there are some very informative sites out there that'll help you with that!

I decided my setting will take place on some small town on the Irish coast because my novelthing (lol) will be about Selkies. But...I've never been to Ireland, let alone anywhere on the Irish coast. Would anyone ne able to give me any information about that?
