I didn't realize this was out already when I posted earlier, and I didn't want to clutter up that post with unrelated info, so I decided to make another. Two-fer!
My first interview about The Shard Axe has gone live over at Massively (thanks, Rubi)! In it, you'll learn the name of the book's protagonist, find out a little about her storyline*, and also get a heads-up about some of the places from the DDO game that will be featured in the book.
*Yes, the main character of The Shard Axe is a woman -- the Sentinel Marshal Sabira d'Deneith. And if you happen to be a fan of USA Network's "In Plain Sight," then my original elevator pitch (shorter than the one mentioned in the interview) will tell you all you really need to know: Mary Shannon in Eberron. (Well, okay, not all -- not even half, really -- but it's a good place to start, heh.)
Here's a little taste of Mary. She's not Sabira, of course, but there are some definite similarities between the two characters. They're both kick-ass, smart-ass Marshals with a penchant for saying what other people only dare to think (I could easily see Sabira making that "surprisingly small" comment from the compilation clip, for instance). Flawed, but strong. The kind of characters I most enjoy reading about -- and hopefully the kind you most enjoy reading about, too.
Everything Else
I gave in the last post. Heh.
