The story I'm working on at the moment is a fantasy story set in the real world, aimed at children around 10-12 years old (or possibly 8-10, I'm not sure where it would fit yet).
I'm curious to know if anyone has any ideas on how soon the fantasy aspect should be introduced?
I'm about 4k words in at the moment (some of which is probably babble or repetition that will have to be cut) and the main character's first experience of 'magic' (though she's not going to be sure if it's real for a couple more scenes) is just coming up. Does this sound like it might be too late?
