My chapter annotations for the prologue of GDC are now available. You might have noticed the chapter annotation section of the site is now accessible from the main navigational bar for any visitor, not just members. I think I’ll keep it there and open access. If you’re interested in how this book came about, from my inspiration behind the story, to compositional techniques, to changes made in the editing process, I’ll comment on all these aspects. If you wonder how honest I’ll be just read the prologue annotation, that should give you an idea.
My goal is to do at least two chapters per week for the short term future, maybe more if I can manage it. I hope people check these out and enjoy them. I think they’ll be interesting, especially for writers looking to get a glimpse into how someone else—in this case, me—crafts a novel. Oh, and while I think I’ll just do the chapters in order, if anyone has a special request of a chapter for annotation, let me know and I’ll do that next. As always, I aim to please—mostly myself, but others when circumstance allows.
