Have you ever contacted an expert in a field that you are writing about?
I work fulltime as a newspaper reporter, and I frequently contact people to answer questions about stories I'm working on. However, I feel uncomfortable doing so for fiction. I guess I feel like since I'm unpublished in fiction that I'm not quite "legitimate."
I'd like to do more in depth research on certain subjects, but I'm scared people will think I'm a nutcase for approaching them.
