I tend to jump around when writing, so during the revision stage I use a stoplight system to help organize which sections of my writing need the most work. Green sections are passages I’m satisfied with and that don’t need any more revision. Yellow sections indicate areas I feel need to be reviewed at a later time and possibly tweaked. Red sections indicate areas I’ve only outlined, or chunks of dialog that need to be filled in with action.
It looks something like this (blurred because no spoilers):
I’ve personally found a lot of success with this method and thought I might pass it on <3
A magical girl series where the girls transform into their DnD characters.
Imagine being a typical shojo super villain and seeing an anime girl transform into a fucking Orc.
Not even a cute anime Orc, just a realistically drawn Warcraft Orc named Mo’Gar Skullcrush or something.
None of the girls in the group transform into cute Elves. It’s just Lady Stormbeard the Dwarf ranger. Skeletal Lich Bellinde Bloodless. GrhhuHghh the Goblin cleric. Every villain they meet is fucking terrified.
What if it changed depending on what tabletop game they played last? Like sure, for the most part its dnd transformations but one night they play Arkham Horror and the next time they transform into a mobster, an old professor, and a jazz musician.
I feel bad for whoever has the horrifyingly bad luck to get into a fight with them after they play exalted or nobilis or deathwatch or something.
Happy birthday as well as a somewhat belated rest in peace to Donald Moffat. The English-born actor unfortunately passed away on the 20th of this month.
Science fiction fans will remember Mr. Moffat as Rem in the TV series “Logan’s Run” and as Garry in “The Thing” (1982).
