FIDDLE!

Okay, I’ve had enough of a rest. I turned in my novel and my three short stories, and I narrated a few audiobooks, and then I just PLAYED AND PLAYED. Now it’s time to get back to writing until my edits come in.

So… back to FIDDLE, anyone? Been a minute.

…Like, I wrote the first draft in 2019, and the first half of the second draft in 2020, and then Saint Death’s Daughter, Dark Breakers, The Twice-Drowned Saint, and Negocios Infernales happened. And also Saint Death’s Herald, still currently happening.

But still. Can’t play Slay the Spire INFINITELY, can I? Well… I CAN, but… THAT DOESN’T GET FIDDLE WRITTEN. Or re-written, as it were.

Do you know about Fiddle?

It’s kinda rom-com romp set in the Dark Breakers/Desdemona and the Deep world, but instead of, like, the “Gilded Age” of most of the Dark Breakers stories, not to mention Desdemona, it’s… like… in the 1980’s-equivalent of that world. LOL.

P.S. The walls between the Three Worlds fell down sometime in the 60’s-equivalent (called the “Ymbeglidegold”), so now the goblins, gentry, and humans are all mingled together, in with the occasional demonspawn.

So. That’s nice.

I’ve just reorganized my Table of Contents. It’s kind of like an outline. It gives me a structure, anyway.

Act I: Dida + Istat = L0v3

Scene 1 Best of All Sisters

Scene 2 Goblin Favors

Scene 3 Okay, So He’s Pretty Okay

Scene 4 Thorn in the Dark

Scene 5 The Way of the White Widow

Act II: Ghilbrenna the Abyssborn

Scene 1 Demonspawn

Scene 2 Fexting

Scene 3 Lenscraft

Scene 4 Hen Night

Scene 5 Orca Goons

Act III: Three Weddings and a Rocket Launch

Scene 1 Deep Lords and Clade Queens

Scene 2 The Lost Basilica: Wedding One (Gentry Tripartite renewal of vows)

Scene 3 Oracles for the Unwary: Wedding Two (Dida and Istat)

Scene 4 Third Times’s the Boom: Wedding Three (Ghilbrenna and Squiddy)

Scene 5 SS Vespel Nest

Finale: Vessel Infernal

Why did I use this “Susurra” image to illustrate my FIDDLE blog, you ask? Why, because the gentry of the Valwode, second world down on the three-petal World Flower, live a LONG-ASS TIME.

And some characters you might have met and loved in DARK BREAKERS and DESDEMONA are alive and well in FIDDLE.

Because… you know. Immortals.
