I... I really wanted to see the spider get cut in half...

"Not a wizard so much as a printing press I imagine, but good work all the same Garn," Ada slaps the half-orc on the shoulder. She looks down at the boy's pants. "May want to run and get a new pair before hawking your wares boy. I'd do it now before he make you soil the other end." Assuming...

This is the first of a string of incidents, where Renraw's greed and arrogance causes a creature that would normally have left us alone, attack. And what's even more galling, the first of many incidents that Renraw is infuriatingly able to pull our fat out of the fire.

"Partly," Ada says, watching the paperboy flee. "I've been careful about... certain parts of my life and the little bastard goes ahead and publishes it in the paper. Putting the fear of the gods into him sounds fine by me." "But aside from that, I could use him. If we're heading into some...

Whiz said we had difficulties, which is true I suppose (I think I know which difficulty Whiz is referring to). But honestly, the difficulties are mitigated with some brutally clever ideas on every player's part. I really rather enjoyed this adventure. Clever plot, creative setting, and since...

http://www.ralan.com/ One of the most comprehensive listings of speculative fiction markets. Organized by pro to semi-pro to freebie to even anthologies. Also breaks down which stories each mag looks for, which is... relatively on-target. Sadly, it comes down to editor's tastes and he doesn't...

"How do you suppose that gnome found out about your criminal tendencies?" Ada asks Garn as she scans the street for a broadsheet vendor.

Wow. Cool. Thanks to all the judges and everyone who wrote anything here. Despite the crazy hours, I really enjoyed playing with the pictures we received. Realms of Fantasy is on the list. Part of the reason I did this was the series of stories I have in the submission rotation are getting...

Having read my esteemed competition, finally... I like it. You can tell you took a bit more time than I did, as everything is much more fleshed out. That very well may hurt me. I like the metaphor of the hanging rocks and the fact that weight is what we carry with us, not put upon us. All in...

"Won't even have to be till the evening. I won't take long," the Shark seems as good a place as any. Ada starts wandering around the Docks for the Pelican offices. If Garn comes with, she nods silently.

Two-Thirty. BOO YAH! Like the last one, I like it- but I always seem to like my stuff when I stay up late posting it. Not sure how much of that is sleep dep. The Whiskey has flowed, and the editing has been done. And if I crawl into bed, I can still get some sleep... Won't be back till...

May The Air Bring You Down by Shawn Feakins Kendrick ran as quickly as he could, adjusting his helmet as he did. He climbed up the side of the formation, lichen getting under his fingernails only to be gouged out by weeds. He hopped on one foot as he struggled to get on the ridiculous striped...

Crazy week. It's midnight. I have to get up to drive six hours tomorrow. I haven't started writing. Am I giving up? Coffee and Jameson's is set up in front of me. The only way I will NOT get a story posted is if I fall asleep at the keyboard. Let's rock.

Actually... I can work with those... Here's hoping.

I think Ada's the only one who wants to seperate first. She'll probably join the others at rune circle alley or whatever after she's done. She'd almost prefer going to see the gnome alone anyhow.

Theoretically, I DM in the same world as Whiz- but the setting is so different it demands a different style. I'm running a crime investigative campaign and take inspiration from shows like The Wire and Homicide. Comabt is also as gritty as I can make it. I prefer a swashbuckling "cool" moves...

Ada wants to find Mister intrepid reporter Pelican. Wring some info out of him... and she has her other reasons. After that, she'll head down to the run circle.

Ada had been sitting silent for a while listening to her companions speak. She finally looks up from her coin. "Are we certain we'll find anything of worth besides Delver bones and deathtraps? Plenty come back rich, but more don't come back at all." She leans back. "I hunted down Longcoat to...

And congratulations to yangnome for lasting this long and still putting in a hell of a story for our round. This was a tough battle for both of us due to time constraints, and I think you did very well given the circumstances.

This week is fine for me, but I'll wait for Avatar. Sadly, I have no idea what the next week will bring as I don't have my schedule yet. I can wait this week out if need be. But I have to drive down to Southern Illinois next Wednesday and Thursday (19th and 20th), and there's no internet access...
