    I've been learning more about monsters and see I need to make some changes.

    I've revised some of the story, bits and pieces here and there.

    That will likely continue.

    What happened to the name I asked for?

    Which name? The one with the letter requirements?

    Yes. If it is too big a task, I'll settle for just a name, no letter requirements.

    I have extensively revised the first fight scene.

    I hope it is better.

    The figure in the grotto. I think I got a little carried away with the letters, heh.

    Ok. I have gotten though the meeting with the 2 sorceresses. What a lot of s's.

    Not sure where I want to go next. I'm thinking a cleric, probably will need a healer/fighter right away. I was thinking of a bard, but Ted's doing a story on that, don't think there needs to be 2 stories right at the same time on that, so I'll wait some for the bard.

    So...a cleric? Or a paladin?

    Then...wonder where I would find them? Foggy so far.

    Fighter (farmer/shopkeeper) who's not yet become a paladin or cleric? ;)

    The oddest part of this story, to me, is the raven, Splice.

    I had no plans for a raven, I don't know where he came from, I never know what he will do. The name came the same way, instantly, out of nowhere.

    Very strange.

    Writing this story is strange.

    Once I start, in short order, I find my internal dialogue becomes narration, just as I am writing the story. It is unsettling, but the writing doesn't start moving until that happens.
    Curious, very curious.

    I have been researching races, classes and other stuff, and it is all swimming around and getting mixed up. It will settle, I think.

    I found myself dreaming last night about the story...

    Writing ANY piece of fiction is bound to be strange. IMHO, this is a GOOD thing. :yes:


    Again, only IMHO, I find this to be a GOOD thing. Means your brain is processing all the info you're absorbing. Something productive/useful/etc is BOUND to come of it. :thumbsup:

    Unless it was a bad dream.... :nervous:



    BTW, sorry we (me and J) haven't gotten back to you on the name dealie. Just haven't had a chance to give it a really good go over/ponder to take a decent stab at it.

    It normally levels me...and that is a good thing!

    It wasn't a bad dream...I just wish I could remember it!

    No worries...it's not like it's going away any time soon.

    Thanks for the support, btw.
