So far I have written over 20,000 words and I have brought the main character up to the Confederate fortifications outside of Yorktown. It has been really exciting and fulfilling to build this story about such an interesting campaign. I am trying hard to base it on my knowledge of real military operations and tactics without many sacrifices to simplicity or drama. I am still quite early into my outline, so it is safe to say that this story will be much, much longer than the first one.
Would love feedback from anyone who has tried any of the demos. I am planning to release an unpaid patreon subscriber update tomorrow, and a public demo update on september 1st.
Your most affectionate and humble servant,
Dan Rasmussen.
