I use modern language as a way to keep it relateable

FINALLY Caught up! Yes, gotta love Insomnia as a super power! I have a secret love affair with this story of yours, it's been my popcorn

Had to give each of the squires a bit of hope. Team Squire 2 Ready for what's to come. (sort of... well they will be once their knights get through with them)

The royal bedchamber was massive, opulent, and entirely terrifying. Heavy tapestries of crimson and gold covered the stone walls, depicting ancient Frankish victories. A massive, four-poster bed dominating the center of the room was piled high with imported silks and thick furs. A roaring fire popped and hissed in the hearth, casting long, dancing shadows across the floor. The heavy oak door clicked shut, the iron latch falling into place. They were alone. Atreus backed away

The Steam Press! Wentworth will never be the same without her!

Riley's the best, the only person without an agenda

The hospital room was quiet. Not the good kind of quiet—the kind that sits on your chest and presses down. The kind that makes you notice every small sound: the hum of the ventilation system, the distant squeak of rubber-soled shoes on linoleum, the soft beep of a machine somewhere down the hall. The walls were beige. The ceiling was beige. The water stains on the acoustic tiles were yellow-brown rings that spread outward like bruises. Caleb lay on the thin mattress, staring up at th

It was horrific. A vile tradition, almost as bad as Prima Noctis.

There is one chapter left to this one. I will be taking a little break from the Silver Boar books for a little bit. There is another one in the works but I need more time for it. Plus I have other projects I am working on, and want to get out. I have a Carter book I have been sitting on, and a Charlie vs. As well as a few other projects that are awaiting their turn at release.

same insomnia that's been plaguing me for days. Old demons that want to play I figured I'd write instead of letting them dance.

Father's and sons. Tomas has to learn that his father doesn't give a damn about anything but his own power.

No one, and I mean NO ONE touches a boy of the Vanguard, Ser Lloyd proving yet again, why he protects the smallest and the youngest. Good Morning

The world outside was ending, and Rico was entirely too small to survive it. He was eleven years old, his ribs sharp against his skin beneath the new tunic his Baba had given him, and he was currently buried up to his knees in freezing, churning Vexin mud. The outer bailey had devolved into a screaming, claustrophobic nightmare. Rico had seen riots in the slums of Pamplona, but this was different. This was a holy madness. Men with hollow eyes and burning hearts carved into their chests wer

well spotted. here's your cookie

LIES! Excellent, now I know you're in it!!!!!

Let's see who is who this time around

I am sure they probably do...

so let's smile, we're saved with everyone's favourite agony aunt:

There, chapter should have CLEAR transitions, and time line markers reinforcing things. AND a short line that Giles is Gautier's son... and that they're both useless.

I am being old and grumpy, wasn't anything you said. Just feeling it today.

"Right, I've finally had time to examine this chapter in more detail. I moved a scene from the next chapter into this chapter (the Tomas/Val scene) and in so doing I broke my timeline. I'll correct it by rewriting the final scene to fix the chronology. As for the opening scene — it was originally written for after the Tomas/Gautier battle, and I see now that the transition could be clearer. I'll add some additional markers to help readers track when events are happening concurrently. Quick note on names: Ser Gautier and Giles are two different people. Giles is Ser Tomas's squire (established in his introduction). Gautier is Lothar's enforcer. I thought the distinction was clear from context, but I'll make sure it's sharper going forward. I am one person, writing at a high capacity. I do, from time to time, make errors I don't catch. I'm juggling a lawsuit with my Town Council, medical issues, and a decided lack of sleep. I'm doing my best. A little patience and grace would mean a lot right now."

Without a doubt, it is her biggest mistake yet. It has the unexpected consequence of ensuring Caleb's safety from her. Doctor Raines will get to the bottom of the medication, the over prescription, and Duclose malpractice. I have often found this the case, a fresh set of eyes peering into a dark closet uncovers all kinds of secrets.
