The character Jackdaw was supposed to be a side character in a story that would go into the greyhairs -folder, but I like him, so I'll probably write his story about breaking the curse and finding a husband to spend his life with.
I need to research jackdaws for a character cursed to live as a jackdaw (except one day a year) and hopefully several animal fantasy stories about jackdaws.
