Just back from my west coast jaunt. It was good to meet readers in Portland, an opportunity I hope to repeat in other parts of the country as permitted. Right now I'm looking at San Jose if NASFIC is there next year. No Mid-Americon, alas.
San Jose this year was a bit of a trial. My aunt (with whom I was staying) is showing signs of dementia, which brought back all the anguish of dealing with my mother. God, what a terrible thing. Once home, I went on BrainHQ, which is supposed to train one's mind, and did so poorly that I'm terrified. On the other hand, could I write such complicated stories without some mental competence? Hopefully not.
No word yet from Baen about the plot summary or the 8th novel. Feedback would be really helpful.
I'm thinking now about the dead gods of Tai-tastigon. Where do such entities go when their worshippers lose faith in them? Where does any dead Rathillien native go? I never thought about that before. Suddenly it's an issue. I would like to find a link between said deceased parties and Perimal Darkling for the plot's sake. Clearly, native divinity has become entangled with the Three faced God via his (her, its) temples. If the dead Old Pantheon gods come back to Tai-tastigon other than on their feast, what's going on?
