Jackpot!
As kind of an addendum to my last post, I think I'm also going to end up putting my ideas for futures stories on here so that they're always somewhere I can get at them if for some reason I don't have my journal. So here's a bit of recent history on my writing Ideas.
After taking a few writing classes, I decided that it will be easier for me to first be published writing for the black library. So I came up with this Inquisitor named Alander Javert (Alander I made up, Javert from Les Mis). I figure if I can take my experience from reading outside of the 40k universe and bring those feelings and characters into this setting, then I will have brought something new and better yet, exciting, into the 40k universe. So Javert is very, very Harry Dresden influenced right now. He has two companions, though I mean to add more. The first is a girl named Matisyn Bell (After Amelia's now maiden name). She is a tall lanky blonde with a mouth and shiny copper eyes. The other is a man named Roland Tasp, who I have imagined as having dreadlocks and well muscled upper body. This description howerever, sounds too much like one of Ravenor's underlings from the Dan Abnett trilogy so I'll have to do something about him. At least about the way he looks. The third and final important character who only has scenes, not chronologically inserted into the story yet is Cannoness Siri Amirta. The Order of the Unsung Lament is one of the creations I am most proud of so far. They have worked with Javert in the past due to the fact that they both understand the need to root out Heresy and stop Chaos, but they also know that the Imperium is made up of people. The Imperium needs people.
I don't get to write as often as I need to on this story, but here's a vague over all summary of how I'd like the series to go: Javert right now is in the middle of stopping an arms ring. He's going to discover a hive world that has been sacked by a Black Legion warband, and go for Siri's help. Things are gonna start to build. In Battlefleet Gothic, there is a victory condition called "Honorable Defeat" that describes how you completed and objective, or denied the enemy his, despite losing the battle. I intend that to be the ending to the first book. Javert succeeds at something, but fails to stop the Chaos invasion into the system.
Come to think of it, I need to plan out the series...
