(Also, my favourite things to write about are:
loyalty ‘n’ betrayal
human sacrifice
immortals behaving badly
fraught banquets where someone gets murdered
fantasy archaeology
people bleeding a single aesthetic drop of blood as they die in the snow
… but in real life my main excitement day-to-day is when I get to cook a new kind of lentil.)
