I AM MY OWN PERSON -Spencer Hastings
Interacting with Medieval Iceland
Just made a new Instagram account for the Hall (@Fjorn_the_Skald over there). I know it’s not the best digital map of Iceland around, but here’s the first post, which promotes my interactive map of medieval Iceland for a general audience.
It needs a lot of work, so if anyone has suggestions for improvements, please do let me know! I haven’t had much time to work on it, with the chaos of my Master’s program and all, but I hope to improve it soon!
Bright Litha to us all :)

Description of main characters in first draft stories often fall into two wide categories — far too little or way too much. Writers see their characters and they want their readers to see them, too. However, sometimes they can go too far in description, especially in the main character.

First, they have vivid imaginations and can ‘see’ characters without every detail drawn in. Second — and the more important of the two — the reader wants to connect with the main character in some way.
