ShoH Update and Poll (October #1)
🕑 Added 2020-10-01 22:22:56 +0000 UTCHi everybody, long time no see! I'm officially back from my vacation and ready to tackle the brand-new month! πͺ It's kind of exciting that it's October--I wish there were Shepherd Halloween costumes to dress up in! π
Lots of things going on for me this month:
- Just eight months left until my novel WE HAVE ALWAYS BEEN HERE comes out!
- Some very exciting things happening for it, but I can't talk about it yet! :)
- I have been invited to send in a film pitch to a studio partnering with Netflix this month! I can't talk too much about it, and I know nothing about writing film, but it's exciting to be considered nevertheless!
- Lots of elopements and COVID-safe weddings going on in our lives at the moment, including my partner's brother!
- Our family is getting a new puppy in a few weeks!
In terms of ShoH, here's what's going on:
- I'm looking forward to updating the alpha build with more of Chapter 5 and hopefully Chapter 4 this month! Chapter 4 is a stretch goal, but Chapter 5 is not!
- Chase's short story, which reveals most of the reasons why he is the way he is, will be posted at the end of this month, too!
- Three "redone" character cards are in progress with two artists; I've seen the mockups and they look incredible! These are Chase, Red, and Blade's character cards!
- Trouble's character reference sheet's information has been submitted to the artist!
- We are starting to see very exciting mockups for potential ShoH cover art with a final artist!
- A modern!AU college demo of the Shepherds world was posted here!
- Bookmarks are being made to be sent out to Vice-Commanders and up this month!
- Something special is coming on the 10th for Officers and up! Something to do with food... π
Finally, I'd love your guys' feedback on picking out yet another name! In certain routes of Chapter 5, the MC may have to face off with a wyvern--a relative of a dragon that walks on two legs, lacks wings, and has venom and paralyzing breath instead of fire! I'm trying to think of a suitably gladiator-like name for such a beast... (did you ever realize how much Blest gladiator fights are like WWE matches?)
What do you think the wyvern should be called?

βThe Wyrmβ because it reminds me of the worm-on-string and mother-I-crave-violence memes. Iconic. Legendary. This Is It Folks!
