You know what I've been thinking lately? Of course I've been working on the novel, that's everything, but you know how your mind sits and wanders over things? I've been wondering - why hasn't anyone made any sort of "modern" fantasy? I'm not talking Gaiman or Pratchett or that sort of thing - I'm not talking about dark mysterious covenants or any ( Read more... )

You'll have to bear with me here of course - I am not a game designer, nor am I particularly brave and experimental. Merely, I have been touched by the Muse and now am setting out to deliver what she has given to me. This is just a rough draft, open for critique and commentary, and probably to be taken down in a few days out of sheer embarrasment.

Book of Shadows 3It's just the way I've structured this thing. I wasn't going with an official title in the other Epilogues for the other books, but I think I've finally come up with one that works for all of them. Seeing as how they kinda help lead you into things that will be happening in the next books ( Read more... )

THE END

Well, not really, because we've still got an Epilogue to do, but really, this is the end of Book 3. And I told you: it's depressing.

A Sa chapter. Does it have to go on any more?

Yeah, yeah it does. Still another chapter and an Epilogue! Aren't you excited? I know I am!

Sa threatening the other Ladies and Lords. How appropriate. No, I don't really have anything to add to this.

And it only continues to get worse for the Lookshy crew.

Of particular note, I love the little monologue from Vince / Sa here. That's a true villainous monologue right there my friends, the equal of such greats as the Joker, Sephiroth, or Syndrome.

Wait. Did I just compare this to the greats? Maybe I did. Maybe I didIt's just a really good ( Read more... )

As I said, things are getting darker here as we work our way to the final overture. I hope it doesn't get too cheesey, and that you guys really are enjoying yourselves with this whole labor of love. Believe me, it wouldn't be here if I didn't love it ( Read more... )
