For today’s blog I thought I’d share some fun behind-the-scenes facts about the writing of the Blades of the Goddess series. These are just some general, overarching facts — eventually, I’d like to do an annotated version of chapters 1-8 of Lost Blades, where I can share fun facts, inspirations, pictures, and whatnot, but that will be a far more granular project. For now this will have to do!

Gaia is a strange and wondrous place, home to hundreds of thousands of different types of fauna and flora. From the emerald forests of Espon, to the amber deserts of Dalmara, to the wine-dark seas and their depths, creatures both mundane and magical share our home with us.

Yay, time for the quarter 4 update!

…huh. I haven’t put out any blog posts since the quarter 3 update. Awkward.

Anyway.

The year is half over! Why? Why is it half over? I need it to be longer haha.

(I say that, but do I mean it? Unclear.)

Anyways, here’s a wrap-up of the last quarter!
