I’ve just spent the evening going over the first chapter of Daemonglass . I’ll be creating a topic for it tomorrow evening as I’m currently adding a bit more character description choices.
Length of hair, hair colour, hair styles, eye colours so far but I intend to add height as well (just need to decide on the heights of the ROs and other NPCs.)
I would also like to improve on the gender choice. Specifically allowing readers who are genderfluid to actively change their gender mid -game if they wish. As well as make it so trans readers feel more welcome. I think having an option to be nonbinary in UnNatural was a start (well I didn’t see any negative reaction to it) I would like to improve upon it and find an MC any reader could see as themselves.
I am just trying to come up with a way of offering that choice naturally in the story.
Daemonglass is a story I really love and I want to be able share it with as many people as possible by making an MC you can relate to whoever you are.
I managed the first! And I think I roughly wound up doing the second as well, but that I’m less sure of. Honestly, just having Asphodel’s draft done and launched out into the world feels kind of… wild. Like I’m still processing that it’s happened? Here’s hoping the edits don’t take a year haha.
(sigh) Well, I only got about half as much written as I’d hoped to in November. The code in this section is a lot denser – bringing back lots more callbacks from Game 1 – and it’s taking me longer to unfold the setting and characters than I’d hoped. But I’m enjoying how it’s coming together in everything except how long it’s taking me.
I am continuing my long-held tradition of setting the wrong example by not committing to any goals---- except to keep going.
Congratulations to everyone who has a posted WIP. And thanks again to Hannah for taking the time to make such a list. I have read many of the first few pages of the listed stories. Everyone should be proud of their creative ideas---- Proud of sharing those ideas---- And proud of taking a chance---- a chance on themselves.
My soul almost left my body when I saw mine on the list, too! (In a good way.) Thank you for making these lists that draw attention to everyone’s hard work.
Your legacy has been set in stone. Civilizations will find the prophetic scriptures thousands of years from now and think, “This was peak IF, no cap fr.”
