Hey there folks! Had to break for a week due to a holiday and my laptop having logged me out of everything. In any case, here's the Word of the Week. open.substack.com/pub/tpollard/p…

No Word of the Week this week. I'm spending a few days Manchester and forgot to log into Substack on my laptop before I left. I'll get back to it next week.

Paid a visit to the Games Workshop in Manchester today. They have a display in there, Blood Angels & Friends vs Tyranids. The Deimos Rhino I picked up was a bonus. It was worth the visit just for that. I'd recommend visiting if you find yourself in town. #WarhammerCommunity

People speak often of what your favorite sword says about you, your favorite helmet and so on. Pick your favorite coat of arms, it says a lot about you.

The Word of the Week, my friends. Later this week due to a trip to London. My hotel room was in the basement so I had no signal to send this out. Hope you enjoy it. Have a good remainder of the week open.substack.com/pub/tpollard/p…

I'm on my way to London today, staying overnight for a meeting tomorrow. Still, providing the trains go okay, I'll have some time to see the sights today.

For me it's the Lone Wolf series of adventure gamebooks. Spent hours upon hours reading these as a child. They've influenced my own writing as well. I just love the idea of an unlikely hero, ill-prepared for the world, but now being expected to save it.

I look at your maps. If you put a map in your book I will look at it for a long time. Whether the map is necessary to understand the story is irrelevant. I will still look at it a lot.
