Blood and Smoke Series: Fandom Resource

[spikedluv]

I’m a bit of a nut about taking notes when I want to write in a new fandom, and so I decided to create this Blood and Smoke Series Fandom Resource as I thought the information might be of interest to others, as well. Please note that this resource is heavy on Tony, Henry, and Lee (and the Smoke books), as those are my favorite characters.

Also, these notes are not complete. I’m posting what I currently have because it’s taking me longer to get this together than I thought it would, and I figure that partial notes is better than zero notes.

I have included information from: Blood Price, Blood Trail, Blood Lines & Smoke and Shadows. If you see that there is something that I’ve missed, please let me know about it. (Do not include information from Blood Debt, Blood Bank, Smoke and Mirrors, Smoke and Ashes, or the short story until after I’ve updated this post with notes from those sources.) As I include notes from additional sources, I will update this post and make a note of it.

You may scan the entire set of notes, or jump to the section you would like to read. Please note that this format is not set in stone, and it may change as I find a way to make the information easier to find.

Wow, you've really been working on this. Well done!

[spikedluv]

I have! Thank you. *g*

[ruins-of-sodom.livejournal.com]

Unghhh, thank you thank you thank you for this! I've been dying to draw some Smoke-series fan art and this is a great resource. :D Thanks for your hard work!

[spikedluv]

Awesome! I've still got a bunch more to add, but I'm glad you're finding this helpful. And I'll be honest, I never thought about it being an aide for art as well as fic, so that's cool. *g*

(Meant to also say that I can't wait to see any artwork you draw.)

[ruins-of-sodom.livejournal.com]

Oh definitely helpful. I started reading Smoke and Mirrors without even reading Smoke and Shadows so I've missed out on a ton of details. Tanya Huff has a great way of describing her characters, scattering tiny details throughout the stories, but at the same time it makes it difficult to find a solid written reference. So your hard work is extremely appreciated.

Heee, I will be sure to share any and all arts for this series.
