I'm hoping maybe after the series is all written, she'll pen a
book on tips for writers, with emphasis on organization,
continuity, and fleshing out characters, because I can see right
off the bat that a "timeline" for all one's characetrs' lives is
a good idea... Much better than the "Personal Profiles"
in one book I have which I have been trying to fill out
for the charcters in my Sci-Fi Novel.  ( All my main
characters are cybernetic, so a lot of the questions, like
"Birthday" and "Names of parents" don't apply, whereas
pertinent questions like "Hard drive size" and "Number
of open AGP slots" are not there. :) )

The question I have is, why wasn't there an uproar from the
Witch community when *Sirius* was imprisoned the way
there was for Bagman?   (Or *was* there?)
