The Comic Convention season has a stranglehold on me, so I'll keep today's Steam Brief, well... brief.
The State of the Story
I had no idea that the story was going to take Chad from us for so very long. Heck, it was a surprise to me when he died.
It has sometimes been tough ride, as I really like Chad, and I know that many of you do too. (Because you're written and told me.)
But the story is a harsh mistress, and she knew that it was also a great way to show Beastio's dedication to his best friend. Heck, Beastio and Kip have journeyed through the foresaken Underdeep for him.
It's also been an interesting way to learn much more about Kip, his relationship to Chad, and the heyday of Mr. Mig Nola and Monstru itself.
But, I didn't mean for it to take months and months to resolve it all. I'm learning and evolving as a writer, and sometimes things like this happen.
In the future, I'm going to attempt to make more concise story arcs, where I might.
