EP 99: Historical Research for Writing (2) - Tete's

In this episode, we'll be talking about how @tete.depunk did her research for "70 Fierce Years" (Andrei's story) and "Union of Wave and Shore" (Kai and Gerda's story).   

The questions we'll be covering today:  

For "70 Fierce Years": 

1. When did you first get the idea for 70 Fierce Years? 

2. When did you start gathering research for the series and how has your research method for the series changed over the years? 

3. Which was the hardest part of researching for 70 Fierce Years? 

4. What is the easiest part?  

For "Union of Wave and Shore": 

1. How was researching for a story set in 19th century Norway different from researching for pagan lore (which you used to write the fantasy version of Gerda and Kai)?

2. Are there any writers, like Sholokhov for the Cossacks, who you can use as a starting point? How about Henrik Ibsen's works?
