Howdy all! Back from the madhouse that was Gencon 50. Sat in on some writing seminars, did some play testing, rolled about 8 BILLION dice, walked for miles and miles, ate pizza, etc. Now I'm all recovered and ready to write. I'm looking into some of the upcoming writing contests and I'm considering a few short stories that I've written to flesh out some of my Greenshore characters and plots. Many of the contests in question are around 2000 - 5000 words in length, which is a bit of a test for me. Just keeping each of the Greenshore books in the 35,000 - 40,000 word range is a test... However; today is the Writer's Block down at the library. Next week my daughter starts school. Summer is feeling like it is over and a strange aspect of renewal is in the air. September could be an interesting month! -Dave
