Letting a little bit of cat out of the bag

May 17, 2007 22:32

I just thought I'd share the remaining to-do list (and hint at the secret project I've been talking about--I should have a contract soon, so I can make it official!):

1) Finish a reference assignment
2) Decide whether I have time to do another super-quick reference assignment, and then either say I can't take it, or get it done.
3) Edit a Living Kalamar module, as soon as I get the final draft.
4) Write a blog entry I promised shanna_s I'd write.
5) Write two press releases for Baeg Tobar/Empty Room Studios.
6) Write five pages (ten entries) of script for a web comic. (Oooh, there are whiskers on this cat I've got in the bag...)

This neglects to mention the reading that I need to do for the trip, but I'm hoping that my research arrives on time! banana_pants was kind enough to order a library book for me from the system he can access and I can't, so hopefully that will help as well. (He went to find it and it wasn't on the shelf. It's a library mystery!)

In other news, I got my copies of Allies and Adversaries today! The artwork, as usual, is superb, and it features the nifty descriptions of the Into the Reach characters that I originally worked up for the White Silver website, as well as nine other characters I wrote up, including Johnny Twostep. He plays a bigger part in Regaining Home, and I've heightened the mysery of his background. But just as Shepherd Book never revealed his past, Johnny's not likely to, either.

Other contributors include Trevis Powell, who wrote the novel No Hero for White Silver; Lydia Laurenson, author of Scroll of the Monk and other White Wolf projects; up and coming game designer Andrew Schneider, who is working on some Empty Room Studios projects; and several of the contributors to the original Chronicles of Ramlar rulebook. From what I've skimmed, the writing is quite good, and the character profiles are fairly extensive. It's a neat little book (and by "little," I mean 226 pages).
