Comment research, and your interest in phosphorus (Score 3, Interesting) 499
Hi.
I noticed in the first two Baroque cycle books that you're enchanted by the distillation of phosphorus from urine.
As a matter of fact, it is described in both books with a level of detail that suggests, shall we say, first hand knowlege of the process.
How much alchemical (and mathematical) tinkering do you do when researching your books? How do you go about researching such things...
solo binges of ravenously devouring of source materials, or do you seek out experts early on the process to point you in the right direction?
