This is a really good thought, so I went to the site and… what? I can’t understand what’s going on.

Haah, sorry!

The letters columns are Jenna responding to comments (mostly?) by readers of Hitherby Dragons, which I guess is a long-running fictional universe with a lot of interconnected stories and mythology and stuff. Random recent entries won’t make much sense without any of the history, but “read from the beginning” is a pretty big ask at this point.

After a long hiatus, Hitherby started up again about a year ago; that particular storyline, while it still hooks into the older stuff, is relatively comprehensible on its own as long as you don’t think you’re supposed to understand everything (you’re really not, even if you’ve read everything so far.) It starts here. Or, you could look at the first storyline in the canon, which is more accessible and also lovely. (It gets really messed up, but that’s not until later.)
