[Update] Long weekending 29th March 2016

It was a long week this week, with 4 days off for Easter. I have achieved a huge amount of writing (near on 10 thousand words in my estimate) across a number of projects, including some that actually saw the light of day! I think that is the real benefit of this blog so far, the number of 'things' that I've started to actually complete. Sure I've still got years of half done writing still sitting on my Hard Drive, but at least now something is getting done with it.

So what did I do this past week?

  • Completed an article for my darkconspiracytherpg.info fan site - this is an examination of The Pale, one of the major antagonist races in the game. 
  • The biggie, I released A Night on the Town, a demonstration scenario for Pelgrane Press' The Esoterrorists. Designed as an introduction to the GUMSHOE system, is comes complete with sample characters and a bit of gaming advice.
  • Talking The Esoterrorists, I also updated the page covering this game on my Unbound Publishing website. I've also popped up all the bits and pieces I've produced for the game, and am surprisingly impressed on just how much I've written for it over the years.
  • As you can imagine, releasing a product really gives you a shot in the arm for similar ideas, and so I spent some time working on The Breeders, a longer Esoterrorist adventure (I've previously mentioned here).
  • I also got the map from my friend Domagoj for the Advanced Fighting Fantasy adventure I started a while back. As a result, I ended up rewriting a whole swathe of changes to improve the background elements to the story (i.e. actually have one :P).
  • Finally, inspired by an actual play podcast, I threw together a quick background for a Fantasy Age version of the old D&D setting Dark Sun. What started out as a simple conversion morphed into a similar but different setting. Unsure what, if anything, I'll do with it, but I'm definitely in the mood for some Fantasy Age gaming.
