I've completed 'Runesward: Tome 1, Hasp'. It resolves a few things on my 'To Do' list for the story while opening a few others. Honestly, I think it is pretty good.
I'm going to do a variant of the 'Crowd Source Editing' with the rest of the story. I've requested two experienced editors to look over the rest of the story and mark it up. Anything the three of us don't catch will still be crowd-sourced.
I'm writing at least a bit in Tome 2 - just some ideas I want to get out while I'm thinking about them. I'm not sure if I will continue the story immediately or move on to 'Rings of Command' or 'Fairly CAPable'. Those are the 'Big 3' in my queue at the moment. On the one hand, I'm enjoying this world that's in my head. On the other, I've been writing in it for over six weeks now - which is a bit of a record for me. I want to keep the story 'fresh' for me so we'll see what happens.
Thanks to all who have helped make this story better. I appreciate all you've done.
