I recommend a special tale for the Halloween event at the end of October. A story about the mad king would be nice and than tell the story durring the event weekend.

I've updated (and will continue to update) the schedule a bit as my real life seeks to occupy those spots. In addition, the 11:05 weekend times seem to fall in with "The Intolerants," which is the name I give the players who seem only to spam hate in local about everything (including the very mention that I am seeking to tell stories!). There are a LOT of Intolerants on at that hour, so I will be adjusting those weekend times.

I told a new tale to a test audience tonight, a tale I think is worthy of the Mad King himself! A horrific tale, the First Wendigo! Of course, someone said that I was blaspheming - surely no horrible, spooky tale would be worthy of the Mad King. I replied that I would expect that sort of rhetoric to be spoken after hearing the tale, not before it - otherwise it was the sound of gnats in my ear!

He took up the offer to hear the tale, and afterwards said nothing again of blasphemy. It is a slightly longer tale at 15 minutes, and I know how attention spans for such things is mighty small. I intended to tell this tale during the Mad King's festival, and surely will after some tweaks to get it the spookiest, most horrible story the Mad King has ever heard!

By popular demand, I've updated the primary post and provided new links on the website itself to other written stories. One is a 70+ page short story about two bears that terrorize the beauty of Ascalon in the months prior to the Searing. Others include a story I wrote long before any players knew there were six gods, and also a story about the origins of humans on Tyria.

Looks absolutely great..

Btw, have you ever thought of broadcasting your stories over Vent/TS? Or does that go against the grain of a RPG storyteler? Just a shame that I always seem to miss you (living in Europe)

I have thought about using Vent but I'm really a minor player (teller) of tales. Having it written out in chat seems like an NPC is telling it, and keeps the game inside itself. There is definitely an obvious enhancement to having a voice with tone and such, but for now I will stick with chats.

Or rather, once this double rep weekend ends, I will be telling again. Certain real life events and certain in-game events provide too much focus.

Well folks, sorry, have been extraordinarily busy (playing LoTRO *cough*) so haven't been online much. Guild Wars can consume me when it first comes out with new stuff, but the grind to get grand titles isn't my play style. LoTRO is consuming my game-playing time of late so I am temporarily halting story-telling for the time being.
