Well it's up now! I posted the final chapter of A Gryphon's Tail on both SF and FA a few hours ago. Since then, I've been working on outlines and the opening chapter of the next story. Not even halfway done writing it yet, but... it's definitely starting to shape up.
Need to make some more cheat sheets, though. More comprehensive character bios, some kind of relationship diagram - and maybe something listing a character's appearances. That way someone who doesn't want to read all of the stories could just look at the list, and see which stories contain a character he or she likes.
Also need to start shopping around for an artist. I'll probably end up getting something done on commission, but I'd like to have a nice piece of art to use for the thumbnail image on my stories.
Agh, things to do, things to do. And to think that this is how I relax. |

Finally had time to read the last chapter. Very nice work on bringing a close to a very nice series.
You certainty do have some talent my good sir. I'm not usually much of a reader (too many video games Is my problem :p ) but by the end of the chapter you had me genuinely engrossed in what was going on. So much so that my iner horndog didn't even take notice of a special accidental headbutt by then. The little voice proclaiming "got what ya deserved ya crazy snake bitch" was was to busy making his presence known ;)
Looking forward to anything you've got for us in the near future.
Maybe you could tell us what you did with that Demonic Lust incantation that you stole off Rhaelyn ya cheeky bastard :p _________________ Pffft...

Ha, trust me, I can totally sympathize. As of late, I've been a little obsessive with the latest Borderlands 2 expansion. Anachronistic Fantezie is kind of my thing, so "Assault on Dragon's Keep" is awesome for me. Been trying to cut back down to just an hour or so of gaming each day. :P
At least until Shadowrun Return hits, next month. >_>
Working off and on with the introduction of the next arc, but it's a little slow going. Trying to decide what characters I want to use, and how the plot should progress. I'll admit, I'm definitely a believer in 'making it up as you go along', but I also like to at least have a general idea of where I'm going.
I will say, though, that your earlier comment reminded me of one thing. I'd already written a part where Kira and Kavah meet, briefly, and I hadn't made a thing of it. But... you're absolutely right. She's now going to have some rather personal questions for him! I'm sure he'll be thrilled. ;) |

Yeah, gotten myself addicted to The Last of Us. Sucks you in and leaves you checking the time, thinking "ha... 4 in the morning. Maybe I should get some sleep" :p
Had just got over my Witcher 2 addiction as well :(
I'll have to look back trough your stuff, I can't remember reading anything with Kira and Kavah.
Take your time with the new story too. I shall be waiting, sitting in my chair and twiddling my thumbs in anticipation. Similar to that of a child on the night before Christmas.

Edit: While we are on the subject of video games; this also might be up your alley:

Oh, sorry, didn't mean to sound misleading. Kira and Kavah actually meet briefly in my current rough for 'The Missing Lynx, Part One'. I'm currently in the process of trimming it a bit to revise their encounter.
Honestly, TMLp1's opening chapter is an excuse for me to show or mention pretty much every one of the characters in Karash. Just, y'know, need to figure out where to fit the ballbusting in there. :P |

That makes more sense. Though you might've been losin' your mind there for a second :p
And I'm guessing that this story's obviously gonna have something to do with a lynx, who just so happens to be missing.
Total extra slooth right here :p _________________ Pffft...

Well, I do like my puns! Elin the Lynx was introduced in the first Tales entry, "One Night at the Cat House" alongside The Siamese Twins who also happen to be her sisters. Er, not that they're actually conjoined or anything, the twins are just siamese-type catkin. Right.
Honestly, if anything led to the creation of A Gryphon's Tail and the expanded universe around it, it would be Elin. She was the first ballbusting-oriented character I ever wrote about and released to the public, in the form of Poui's now-defunct Underground League. It's been a while, but I think she got something like a dozen 'Likes' or whatever. Not great, but not bad either.
The way I wrote her there, she was naive and relatively new to ballbusting, but still enthusiastic about figuring out how it all worked. Kira kind of ended up taking on that role instead, but hey - I don't want to abandon the lynx! So, she's getting some love and some screen time, on her way to learning what it is to be an adventurer!
Well, in theory anyway. But few things ever go exactly as planned. |

Nothing wrong with a good pun. They are truly the joke of the every-man :p
Yes, I remember Elin from then (was one of those dozen likes). Hours of fun using whatever crazy artifacts she managed to collect. I remember there was a pair of boots (I think) that always gave me a laugh.
She was part of the reason I got all giddy with reading the first Cat House story actually. You can pozÄ what I'm like now :D _________________ Pffft...
