    Nominated you for two awards on my blog today. Locale is very important to the story and can add a whole other dimension when used wisely. Thanks for the giveaways.

    Because I write fantasy, setting is a huge part of my writing. It's so fun to make a place come alive!

    So true, Emily. It makes for a fabulous experience for our readers when our settings come alive.

    Thanks, Donna. You're a wise one, so of course, you know that. :)
