#WordWeavers Day 16: Do you make up words for your books?
Not for the current WIP, if I can possibly avoid it. It's set in modern-day San Francisco; I feel like made-up words would work against my goal of having it feel like "it really *is* our world, you just haven't noticed the magicians".
I do have ideas for future stories set in other worlds and times, where new and different words would support the world-building instead of undercutting it. But I haven't started any work on those yet.
