We here in the real world are excited something awful about tomorrow's premiere chapter of "Fight, Swear, Loathe". It was a wonderful time writing it, and taking a deeper look into an intriguing character is always a lot of fun. We hope that you enjoy the experience of getting to know a formerly background character … Continue reading And now, Book Three!
Musings
Strategery
An often overlooked aspect of Dungeons & Dragons is time spent planning. I do not refer to the copious amounts of time spent by game masters to keep every session as engaging as possible, but to the planning that must be done by the players as they stagger foward in the storyline. A lot of … Continue reading Strategery
*Drumroll*
And lo, the title for book three was unleashed upon the world. And there was much rejoicing. Only two more chapters of "The Governor-General's Oath" to go and we can get right into yet another literary quagmire. Are you excited? I am. This is my eager face.
Writing for Oneself
With book two winding down and the third one all set to begin rolling out, I have begun to turn my attention to book five. I hadn't really settled on a suitable main character, partly because I felt as though there were too many directions in which the next novel could run. I was torn … Continue reading Writing for Oneself
Borrow an idea, improve it, and set it free
Long ago when I first came across the details of the Knights of Solamnia, I was immediately intrigued. Here was a lavishly intricate hierarchy for a system of lesser nobles that was perfect for any game setting requiring a group of armed, determined, and heroic leaders to see society through difficult times. As presented in … Continue reading Borrow an idea, improve it, and set it free
Book Three is on the Way!
For everyone just about sick to death of that old orc Grundoon, take heart. Although still a central character (and what a character he is, am I right?), it would be a mistake to think that the third book in this series is all about him. In fact, it is all about somebody else entirely. … Continue reading Book Three is on the Way!
A little Gnome goes a loooong ways
The chaotic and irresistibly festive land of Chute de l'Ombre has it's fair share of oddball people. Nothing less can be expected from a place so heavily populated by gnomes. But every so often a gnome sets themselves apart by virtue of their personality, reckless behavior, or a combination of both. Such is the case … Continue reading A little Gnome goes a loooong ways
All good edits must come to an end
Thanks to a deliciously calm and placid weekend, I was able to finish proof-reading books three and four in the Grundoon saga. I caught a few goofs that had slipped through in my original writing and even found a couple of continuity errors. But whenever I find these things I am reminded of a book … Continue reading All good edits must come to an end
Writing Update
Had a wee holiday yesterday so I decided to tackle proofreading book three in the Grundoon saga. It isn't nearly as messy a trainwreck as I feared. Got all but the last twenty or so pages done before falling asleep. Not bad. Most folks are asleep after two paragraphs. Regardless, work is coming along swimmingly … Continue reading Writing Update
New Section, Old Kings
Added a new section the last couple of days and still fiddling with it to make it work. This will provide some more detail into past Kings of Slothjemia, which in turn will inspire more questions than it does provide answers. I find it comforting to turn to the old familiar things from time to … Continue reading New Section, Old Kings
