I had a deadline for Duality 2, a book produced locally, that was today. The story I was working on didn’t quite work and while I had a good beginning and ending, the middle just didn’t work out. So no submissions for Duality 2 for this boy. I’ll wait until Duality 3 and see if I have anything in mind that would work.
Now that’s out of the way I’ve been thinking of working on something a bit longer. Recently my story lengths have been getting shorter and shorter and after a comment by mrBen I thought that something with a bit more story to tell was on the cards.
So now I’m working on a sequel of sorts to Living on Reputation, something that was submitted recently for Mythaxis. And, hopefully, it should be a bit more weighty than I’ve been producing. It has the working title of Towers Over The Clyde.
To give you a hint, think of Glasgow cop-show Taggart but with wizards and a hint of H.P. Lovecraft. Lovely.

Totally forgot to mention that I finally passed the 50k barrier on Desert Of Zin (book one)!
Quality!

(Found a old draft post after the last game of Cthulhu we had, in March! Thought I’d post it anyway…)
So, no Call of Cthulhu adventure last night, but there was one last week.
The adventure – The Madman from the 6th. edition rulebook – was done in one night and almost saw Edgy (Logan Fletcher, investigative journalist) and Enzo (Montague Summers) meeting a rather unfortunate end…

Hello Cthulhu.
It is both helplessly cute and infinitely terrifying at the same time.

Burrowers is the first book in a series of six that he wrote for the Cthulhu Mythos. Lumley is is better known for the Necroscope series of horror novels (it’s what I knew him for at any rate).

Myself, Guy Incognito and the Charming Manipulator had the first of (hopefully) many enjoyable Call of Cthulhu adventures last Thursday night.

I want to Static Games yesterday afternoon to pick up a few boosters for Call of Cthulhu and picked up a new RPG for the games I’m intending to run.

Recently I’ve had it in mind to dust off some old role-playing books and gather some like minded citizens to have a few games of whatever to help while away an evening.
Booze and snacks would help as well.

As far as card games are concerned, I used to be pretty good at them. And, until recently, this was still the case.
Alas, no more it seems.

On Monday I was around at Fruity’s (an old uni mate, not anything dubious…) in the afternoon and we had a couple of games of the Call Of Cthulhu Collectable Card Game (CCG).
< Shameless Plug> It’s a great game which everyone should play. Go here to find out about it. </ Shameless Plug>
How did I do? I was horsed. Twice.
It was pretty embarrasing.
If you ever play it, a word of advice. Fear Behind The Pallid Mask.
