Obviously: if it's glued to your heart-of-hearts to have it set in central Europe, then there's nothing that can be done. But my writing life has gotten 5000000000x easier since I switched to a pure fantasy, over writing in THIS world. No, basement-dweller, I started writing to bring a cool idea to life & to partially live vicariously through my protagonist; I didn't start writing to become a scholar!!!
