Outlining: Tatterdemalion and the Foundations of Magic trilogy

Yesterday, I came home from a lovely visit with the lovely Anah Crow, in which we crocheted, watched the first couple days of the Olympics, and did tight outlines of the two books that follow Tatterdemalion in the Foundations of Magic trilogy.

No cover art yet, but the book isn’t coming out until mid-May!
