First person research.
It is one thing to pick up a book (surprise!) and read descriptions and information that you then decide to use as background or pieces of the puzzle to your writings.
It is another thing to dive headfirst into the weeds so to speak and get your hands dirty.
Well, for the last few weeks, I have been silent. Not a word written since my last blog post. That includes work on my #wips. I have been neck deep in research, activities, tasks, and utilizing my hands, all in the name of my craft to ensure that what I write about it grounded in knowledge and my own expertise tackling subjects I will use in my plots and stories.
It is something I have always done.
