Primeval Thule

I haven’t signed up for as many kickstarters in the last few months, primarily because I haven’t had any big book checks in the last few months. (That’s the nature of publishing — feast or famine, usually with emphasis on the latter.) But one of the ones I DID sign on for was Primeval Thule, and I drop by the web site every now and then to see how it’s coming along.

It sounds like exactly the kind of campaign world I’d want to set a game in or write a story about. This morning I visited the work-in-progress to see if there were any new updates and discovered the tentative TOC. Check out the titles of the cities alone, which just breathes of evocative world building: “Kal-Zinan, City of the Iron Gate” or “Lands of the Long Shadow.” That’s the stuff. I’m really looking forward to this one.

There’s likely to be some radio silence here as I bear down and get some serious writing done. I’m making huge strides in my word count every day, but not as much as I’d be making without this winter weather. When there are two hour school delays (or early pick-up) it means my kids both have to be dropped off (an hour apart, due to different drop-off times) and a later start to the work day, dang it. Tomorrow the weather should be clear, but I’m having some workmen come and manage some repairs that are a little too specialized for me to take a crack at.
