I was tagged in a little questionnaire exercise, and I thought
why not? Something fun to do in an
otherwise dull and unproductive week.
Because I’m not really in the mood to talk about The Wizard’s Heart right now—edits are
beyond exhausting right now and me and the book are just not on good terms at
the moment—I’m going to answer questions about Dark Lord in Training, the middle-grade fantasy that I am
oh-so-slowly drafting.
1. What is the name of your character? Is he/she fictional or a historic person?
Alden Millard. Fictional.
2. When and where is the story set?
The story is set in the Kingdom of Erilea, but most of the story takes place inside the Evil Lair of Ryxik Hathmor the Blackhearted. It’s a standard fantasy setting, upgraded slightly, because apparently they have decent plumbing and gas stoves. So, I don’t know. Maybe it’s like a weird mid-1800s tech-level fantasy world. That works, I suppose.
