I was recently reminded that I have not posted here since January.  I think this is because of the general lack of Shadow Glyph-relevant news.  That project is in the middle of a final read-through/draft and should be available in the early summer.  I know that this could really seem to be dragging on, but it is only because I want to have the best and most- finished product for you guys once it’s done.

That said, there’s really no excuse for not writing a blog.  I could prattle on about the school project where I made parchment out of cowhide or the four essays I wrote in the past month… but none of it is a worthwhile excuse.  How about the dog ate my blog?  Hmmm…

Instead, let’s move on to more exciting topics!  I’ve completed 100 pages of Book 2!  The sequel to Shadow Glyph, titled Gothikar, functions as both a prequel and a sequel to the events of Book 1.  It’s a very unique project and exciting to work on.

I’ve also begun a collaborative project with my fellow writer Dylan Tracey.  Using an impressive and hugely helpful world-building tool here to build a new, convention-breaking and realistic fantasy world.  This astonishing list by Patricia C. Wrede begins with broad questions concerning the physics, nature and functioning of your fictional world but continues to move deeper in specifics such as how your answers to the above conditions would affect the culture/s of your world.  While our world-building project is far from complete, it already feels like a well-developed, interesting and real place.  I look forward to eventually writing within this setting and sharing when I do.

Don’t worry though, developments on Shadow Glyph take priority.

PS: I thought about calling this, “Re:I have a blog?” but decided to go with the Star Wars AND Lord of the Rings reference instead.
