The section on writing pertains mostly to Cormyr, how does Waterdeep differ (or not)? I’m especially interested in Waterdeep’s popular fiction market.— Drew Calderone (@IslamAndDragons) January 11, 2022

I’d already covered the Waterdeep market in articles I penned for the Wizards website, both broadsheets (=newspapers) and chapbooks.
One of my Spin A Yarn tales also focused on the selling of chapbooks.
In brief, the Deep has more of everything: more competing… 2)
…broadsheets, far more treatises and tracts published in chapbook form, and a great breadth of genres in chapbooks, with several long-running series (akin to real-world Perry Rhodan or Dray Prescott or the Angelique books).#Realmslore— Ed Greenwood (@TheEdVerse) January 11, 2022
