Awesome info for DMs and writers.
Fortresses, Strongholds and Temples for Players Part 1
This is such a motivating message.
Beautifully illustrated and written story comic. I would love to see this in full graphic novel format or as a written novella. It's such a cool concept.
Good advice for any writer or those aspiring to write.
How do you start a second draft? I just finished my first one and I'm having a hard time getting in there to start changing things because it just seems like a lot to sift through
Print out your book on paper.
Then find time when you won’t be disturbed, and read it. With a pen, or a pencil. And anything you don’t like as a reader, make a note in the margin, or change it on the page.
Look particularly for things that you were hoping would be better. Mark them in the margin too.Â
And then work out what you need to do on the second draft. Basically, anything you didn’t like as a reader you get to fix as a writer.
Who knew, Disney was well versed in the misunderstood art of punnery.
