My latest short story, "The Patch Man," is up at paizo.com (at least the first chapter is -- the rest will come soon). It takes place in the world of the Pathfinder RPG which, if you're not familiar with it, is very similar to D&D, but with a lot of its own twists. "The Patch Man" is about a half-fiend named Blit who makes a living cleaning up evidence for the
less-reputable guilds in Pathfinder's largest city, until he starts getting in over his head.
This marks the second short story I've sold in *mumbles* years of writing. At this rate, you can expect a published novel from me by 2040. Oh well. In the meantime, I'll just get back to work on the most anticipated RPG of 2015.
Rough, right?
Anyway, enjoy the story. Did I mention it's free?
Heck of a story. Consider me subscribed.
ReplyDeleteEnjoyed the story and I look forward to the rest!
ReplyDeleteTwo is still two more than zero. Congrats, brother!
ReplyDeleteAny female characters that fall for no reason when they try to run somewhere?
ReplyDeletecapthca was "badeot she" - btw...
I don't think she falls down...
ReplyDelete"She turned a corner. Her toe caught in a crack. She fell."
ReplyDeleteHow many times have we all seen that same exact scene repeated and repeated? And it isnt like it has any purpose, she gets up onto her feet the next second. Or the male hero comes to save her in the nick of time - in other stories and movies.
ReplyDeleteIts nothing but a bad habit, a horribly overused cliche that is there completely unintentionally.
But when you consider it then it works directly against any kind of heroine, as it would work against any kind of hero or male protagonist, if it would just happen to him.
And i even liked the story despite that and few other things.
That was really good!
