Nothing to report in regards to the story but I’ve done a little updating to the map.  Sorry there’s nothing new.  I was sick for a few weeks and things are moving pretty slow.

For those of you that saw my Facebook status update that said I would have this post up last night I apologize for the delay.  I have a few more names within Kaluminor to share with you until the next Novel Notes.  Part 8 will introduce a new character (or characters) and some lore pertaining [...]

Just a quick and short update.  I’ve had a few problems with my computer the last few days but I have managed to get a few things done.  I let myself get distracted trying to create a really nice map of Kaluminor.  I don’t posses the necessary skills in GIMP or Photoshop to do a [...]

There are a few people keeping up with the news that I’m going to attempt to write a novel.  I have no writing experience, minus a few blogs here and there, and really I don’t have much of a clue as to what I’m doing.  I’ve read a few tips online so that’s all I [...]
