I’ve finally finished editing the first act of my book. As expected, chapter 6 got the most work, but I honestly think this rough 100 pages is much better now. I’ll need to take a look at the second act and figure out where the problem chapters are so I can pick new writing partners.

Xander of the Broken Antler
I recently took part in a Christmas themed one-off D&D session. We did it over Zoom, but it was still great to roll some dice again. I didn’t use my normal random number character building methods for this character, but I still think it’s pretty neat.
Writing Partner: The Unusual Suspects
In the next tent-pole chapter our protagonists will be at a location with all the principle murder suspects.

Writing Partner: A Killing Machine
Its blade may be dull and its armor rusted but don’t underestimate the danger of this machine. It has one goal and it will never stop.
Writing Partner: A Mythic Update
The month has ended and so has my recent project. I’m happy with the results, even if they didn’t quite match my initial goals.
Writing Partner: Mythic Goals Sometimes Require An Army
