As I mentioned recently, I have an idea for a new story. As I thought it through, I realized that I would have to invent a country.
Well, I thought, I can do that. I invented a country before: Bellona.
And then I thought, okay, what if, rather than inventing a new country, I used Bellona? And then I remembered some things that would tie in, both from my published stories and from unpublished drafts. And it would explain why the detective would take an interest in the case…
To paraphrase the great philosopher Hannibal Smith, I love it when a story starts to come together.
