Yeah I agree with you Quokka.

Though in the story I'm writing with a friend, I just started a bit of an info dump section. This is because so much has happened already I think the reader needs some background. I'm worried though about how well this will work, but inspired by Hobbs little excerpt from the start of each of her chapters in the Assassin and Tawny Man trilogies.

And on a side note, writing without a history is a bit tricky sometimes, but writing without a map seems even harder!
