A Million Tiny Steps Forward

So a lot has happened since I last blogged, partially because I have been so busy it has been a long time! But every which way you look, things are going great, which is always fantastic. So let us begin!

I am now on the third version of my roleplay system, the Recollection Paradigm, and I think I have finally hit the nail on the head. Focusing more on the tactical decisions that characters can make rather than decisions made while building them has given it a unique, exciting and very adaptable flavor. My one shot last weekend went very well using it, and hopefully the one this weekend will also!

As I sit here, I am also preparing for a job interview tonight! It will put me marginally in a position that involves my education, sorta. Well, better than sweating outside all day! Wish me luck.

I also have another meeting with my new illustrator, Moire. Matt has done some splendid work so far, but I know he is a busy guy, and for the roleplay system and accompanying Tarot deck, I will need A LOT of illustrations, preferably quickly. So while Matt continues to crank out wonderful artwork for my first two series, I will be working with Moire on this most recent project. Going great so far!

Did you think we were done? Cuzz we're not! Oh no, the best is coming last!

Last weekend I was scheduled to meet up with my friend, Dr. Red Hawk, over at Angelic Light Publications to discuss publishing my book. Unfortunately, we had to reschedule for this weekend. I am so very much looking forward to it! After talking on the phone about what working with ALP would entail, I believe that they are exactly what I wanted from a publishing company, and that I in turn will be a good fit for them! Again, wish me luck!

So that is about it. There is so much more work behind the scenes than I care to detail here, but suffice it to say that I have been in a bit of an obsessive frenzy over the last month between the new system, book, publishing Spires of Respite, job hunting and of course, work. Not to mention that whole marriage thing. Why'd I do that again? It takes up so much time!

Nah, I love my adoring wife and wouldn't get half as much done as I do without her constant support!

So catch you guys next time, be it tomorrow or a month from now! :P
