Love how you bring us into your world of creation. I too, am piqued to know more about Tamsin's backstory amd love how matter-of- fact she is, not fancy at all. That's so refreshing, like everything you write.

You won't have to hold your breath too long. The story begins in Red Crag and at least one of the sources of Tamsin's shame becomes clear pretty quickly.

Thanks! I threaded Tamsin's backstory through the first few installments. Starting with "The Weight of Memory." It was interesting to me how different people in a community view the same event through very different lenses.

Glad to have you along! Hopefully, the serial will inspire some folks to enter the wonderful world of RPGs. You don't even have to play them yourself. It's fun to watch other, creative regular people playing on YouTube, Twitch or podcasts.

Take two in trying to leave a comment! I love what you’re doing and love reading your behind-the-scenes actions. You’re inspiring me to write my own behind-the-scenes type post now that my book edits are nearly done.
