There are two answers to this, because my current series has two parts.
1) A roleplaying game, run by my friend Mark Whipple. He made up the basic idea, the major characters (except for Rachel, Siggy, and the Princess, who were the player characters) and the overall plot.
2) The story needed a new background. My young son had come up with an idea of a magic school on the island of Roanoke, where the original colonists disappeared. I was not familiar with that area, so I made it a floating island and moved it to the Hudson Highlands in NY, because I love that area and it is almost as steeped with magic and lore as Great Britain. So it seemed like a perfect place for a school of magic.
