From the desk of Paladin
December 5th 2025
I hope that everyone that celebrates Thanksgiving had a nice holiday. As some may have read I had some issues with My foot that required Me to stay in the hospital for a couple days. My biggest complaint about My stay was the portions on the food was ridiculously small and I did not receive one sponge bath from a sexy or hot looking nurse. On the plus side, I didn't receive one form ugly nurse either so it all evens out.
Progress on the next installment of 'No Good Deed' has not proceeded as quickly as I thought it would be. Mostly because as usual what I envisioned for a one or two chapter story has morphed into a much bigger story. 'No Good Deed' is looking to be at the very least 5 Chapters long. Also I am going to do a little restructuring as well and instead of calling them chapters I am going to refer to them as Acts like the Acts in a play. Sooooo
Act 1 The Dinner
Act 2 The Rendezvous
Act 3 The Tavern
Act 4 Unexpected Turn of Events
Act 5 Bitter Reunion
There are so teasers with the titles of the next two acts. Right now I am only seeing this being a five Act story. That being said is before I start one of these I have a rough story board in My head. Then once I get writing the narrative or creating the art with AI a light bulb goes off and I have to most of the time step back and adjust. Usually going back and editing or redoing what I have already done. For this Act alone I have edited and redid the art work twice. But the artwork goes with the story. And AGAIN, I ask that people keep in mind that what I type into the prompt and what is generated is not always the same thing. Sometimes I get what I want or better but more often than not, I have to pick what is the closest and best from the results. And I will say that I did get lucky a lot on this Act.
I will also warn My readers that Act 3 will likely be the longest Act or Chapter yet.
I wish all well

ReplyDelete(1) I’m glad you are well.
(2) For me, it is good news that “No Good Deed” is growing.
(3) A long The Tavern would be great.
(4) Is there any room for a further prequel.
vyeh
vyeh,
DeleteIf this all plays out like I see it doing. Best Laid Plans of Mice and Men and all that good stuff...
But the only place left to expand on would be her being under the control of Spectus within the House as his private slave. The only other option would be the telling of her voyage from Victoria to where it picks up in the land convoy moving south from the Vosk to Ar
Paladin:
Delete(1) … and maybe something happens on your way to the end of A Bitter Reunion …
(2) Was The Rendezvous originally a short transition to The Tavern?
