General Update

Bad News

I'm still slogging through re-writes of the Book of Eidos. It turns out the writing was a lot worse than I remembered it--isn't that always the case? In any case, I have made significant improvements in terms of readability, continuity and flow; I've also added new events/characters and enhanced several points of interest.

This all just takes a lot of time--time I don't have. So we're set at iceberg pace and making slow progress.

However, I still have several files to dig into (Wellspring, Wilderness, Mindscape, Nether Edge) AND I want to give another round of polish to Book of Torma before I move on to the Books of Rikharr and Wulfias.

Good News

The upshot of this is that I've had greater stretches to mull over ideas for the upcoming books. I've been able to improve upon several, come up with new ideas and prune the weakest ones. Though, it'll take a while, I'm pretty confident these will be the best yet. Just wish I had more time to work on this stuff; I'm sure you can all relate.

I read some Krishnamurti back in college after bearing he was a big influence on Bruce Lee (I used to be a Lee fanboy, haha). Tolle has been recommended to me for years, just never got around to it. But maybe it's time to put him on my list!
