There’s a lot I’d like to say right now, but the more time I spend blogging the less time I’m working on Degrees of Horror. Hopefully when it’s returned to Pinnacle I’ll be able to spend more time elaborating on the revision process. For now, I’m still shooting to finish up before the next Class Notes so I need to keep my nose to the grindstone.
The first 8 chapters are pretty much locked in. Ed is still working on the adventure generator, so I’ve skipped ahead to the next chapter– my old nemesis the Plot Points. The best I can say is that when I’m done with this chapter it’s a short downhill ride to the end of the book. For the plot points, my big focus is on slashing the word count and applying revisionist history to early adventures that bubbled up in later ones. In other words, making sure everything is consistent.
In other news, most of you have probably heard about Facebook’s throttling of Page exposure on your timeline. I read an interesting analysis by a social media company claiming that Page status updates that included a hyperlink were less likely to appear in your news feed than ones that didn’t. You’re probably aware that I post a link to every Class Notes on our Facebook page, but I also sometimes post updates that don’t make it here for one reason or another. Saturday I posted a note letting everyone know that I was shutting down our forums and encouraging everyone to post on the Pinnacle forums instead. I see that Saturday’s post (without a link) got twice the page views as the last Class Notes link. So if you’re reading this because you saw a note on Facebook telling you to come check it out, that’s why.
