Just want to say greetings and hope that I have time to come to this new board more often. Let's see... I'm teaching in the orient again, Fukushima, Japan. Been playing City of Heroes still...also playing The Secret War...which is nice Doing pretty good...doing the vacation thing right now working on a RPG setting for my Divine Blood setting Writing short stories also for Divine Blood...hoping to have 18 done, 14-15 of which should be free to download when I'm done, last 3-5 will be in a collection with the free ones currently I have short stories for: Eowyn Desai (my Melissa Mao expy), Lilitu Geisthexe (my Mara expy) and Minaba (I'd say my Inaba expy, but she's not really recognizable anymore) with another one coming up for Mao Semezou (while started as my adult-female Ranma expy, I've identified influences from Dresden, Gold Digger and a couple of other places) Go ahead and check them out if you want to see how these characters have diverged from their source characters. rpg.drivethrustuff.com/index.php?cPath=8702 need to get myself to finish the last three chapters of Greenwater part 3 have discovered Whateley Universe and have been reading that... All in pretty good times. Since I have money again, I've been commissioning art again. It's almost all Divine Blood related right now, but that's what I'm working on

Hey Thryth, good to see ya! How's Japan been treating you? ^^ Better than the American schools had been. Seriously, I am back to being content as a teacher.

That's good to hear. How's the writing been going? I see you're still active on Divine Blood. Nice arts you've gotten, too.

pretty good, not going as fast as I'd like....
on a really good day I know I can right around 10k words...but mostly I'm having to stop at around 2k-5k.
A need to make myself finish part three of Greenwater so I can get it out
have already decided I'll probably have to push Bystander to publishing next year
oh, will be looking for playtesters for the game setting soon

I hear ya, I barely get the chance to write anything anymore, lol. And when I DO have the chance, I'm so worn out that I can't think. I'm dying over here, hah, I want so badly to write, but I just can't...!
That's cool, though, that you're still working on making your projects happen. ^^
The game sounds fun, too! I rarely table-top (I'm more into free-form LARPing, table-tops have so many rules... D:) but even so, still awesome. ^^ My husband and a friend of ours from back home have been off-and-on working on a couple table-top projects themselves, but no one ever seems to have the time and energy to dedicate to finishing it. And if I remember right, one of our friends has something of an "in" at White Wolf, so they could at least get it looked at if they could just get around to finishing it...

well, I'm only including stats for people as example of how they could, the book is largely "this is the way the world works" so freeform would be appropriate
