Mary J asked Benedict Jacka:

Two weeks ago, I'd never heard of you--now I've read all of your Alex Verus series, and I can hardly wait for the next one. Question: I saw on your Web site that you have an extensive encyclopedia of Magic. How do you keep track of all the details of Alex's World? Do you use a spreadsheet, notebooks, or some other method? Thanks, AJ

Benedict Jacka I have a bunch of text files on my computer where I store various bits and pieces of information, but for the most part I keep track of things in my head. I do have trouble keeping dates and chronology straight, though, so I have a timeline that I have to refer back to fairly often.
