It’s a bitter irony that the reason I keep forgetting to do a daily blog writing is because I keep working on other writings meant to be posted here. But hopefully, I’ll start paying attention to the notification this thing sends me to sit down and put together some ramblings of what I’ve seen through the day.
That said, there’s been progress! Four new players have reached out to me with wanting to join in the Star Wars campaigns and I am deliriously excited to see what kind of stories they’ll bring to the overall timeline.
That and they probably knew I wouldn’t say “no”. They’re willing to not buck the Expanded Universe timeline so it can still be a resource for everyone, so I’m willing to add them to my list of “Things to write about”.
The story-writings have been slow, but they have been growing! Hit a rough snag while outlining the novella, but I went back to my old creative-writing notes and figured out the problem: writing fundamentals. The chapter that had the snags was meant to be one where the protagonist proved his trustworthiness while still being very mercenary. Took a bit before I figured it out: add more punches instead of dialogue. Hopefully I can start writing it out in full by Sunday.
The Sidewinder story is in dire need of attention, so after I’ve gotten a start on the novella (at least the first chapter) I’ll put everything else down until I finish Adventure 1 and post it.
With those updates, have a look at the turtle who fell out of a tree yesterday and smacked me in the head while out on the route. I have no idea how he got up there, but I do know, now, just how much pain a turtle kamikaze can cause.
With that, it’s back to the mail, readers. Hoping you all have a good weekend.
