Daytime

So it's been a something something year.

Work continues apace. I have to accustom myself to the creeping speed and inefficiency of the world of local government. I have a couple of chunks of training coming up in the first quarter of 2014 that should get me ready to do most of the work I was actually hired to do. Let's hope there aren't any major disasters before then.

After months of delays and frustration, the basement project is finally complete. Five hacked IKEA Billys and a Benno are installed, giving us what's effectively 65 shelf-feet of "built-in" bookshelves in the basement. Most of the gaming, fiction, and reference books are moved in and clean-up is more-or-less done. Dining room has a new table and chairs, which elalyr and I procured last month as our graduation present to ourselves.

I'm done with my first freelance work since the clusterfuck that was Twilight: 2013. It's a drop in the inkwell compared to some stuff I've done but it was rewarding: 11,000 words for Onyx Path's Trinity Continuum reboot. Redlines are in and my developer is mostly pleased, so I'll have minimal work to do on finalizing them next month.

Currently getting ready for a couple of days with aureus_videre and furison. Typical last-minute game prep, this time for a semi-secret playtest of [REDACTED] [REDACTED]th Edition. Back to the plot mine.

How is the new trinity? I wrote to Rich Thomas and asked to be involved with the new A! But i guess he doesn't know me from adam and although he wrote me a nice letter thanking me for my enthusiasm, I haven't heard since.

Even though I think i wrote as many knacks for that game as you did.

Ah well. Can you talk about the structure, like at all?

Glad you freelancing went well. Hope 2014 brings more of the same!
