On women

While reading an autobio for fun, I ran across this, and thought to share it.


Let me tell you that a man who sees a woman only as an object to quench his sexual thirst has missed out on one of the most inspiring experiences in life. Mind you- I am not arguing that pleasure in bed with somebody you love is not good. I am saying that there is also a pleasure in being with a woman whose company is fun because she is an interesting human being. The fact that she is also a member of the opposite sex gives her those grace notes that make her song even more pleasing to hear.

And it's off

Article sent. Was a fun one to do.
Been noodling around with the one after the next one I was going to write (the future one will be fairly long, so I am doing prepwork on it).

Will begin writing the second character article on Mon.
Gives me the weekend off from that, but I am writing stuff for my campaign, and I'll likely be doings stuff for the magic system article (the long one) too - both because I want to work on it, and because I have been having fun writing it. :)

Another quick note

Just finished the first draft of the article. 36 new talents. I go over it again tomorrow for mechanical problems in the builds of the abilites. The wife will do a grammer/spelling/style edit. I'll fix those, and run a second draft.

I'll likely have this off to the editor by Wednesday night.

WooHoo!!

I already have mentally created the characters for the next article, now all I have to do is get it on paper. I'll start that next week. I'll a
llow myself a short break.

Then I have a magic system article to do - which also is great stuff for my Fantasy Hero game. That one will be fun to build - I need to come up with 10 to 15 sample groups of spells (the things revolves around making a deal with a powerful entity, and getting abilities and spells for it). Each sample will be two pages typed, so this will be a huge article. I plan on having at least 4 or 5 "saints" or intersessors, one each of the 4 classic elements, a couple of demons and devils (for the bad guys), and a couple of natural forces (nature, the City and whatnot). Should be fun to write. :)

Then another character article, and one I'm noodling around about familiars. Then another character article.

And if I get one published an issue that is almost a year away. :)
