#SFFChat Q4
I want to see myself published. Not as a one-and-done anomaly. I want to have a series, a world, a universe that expands every day
I want my #OakengroveSeries to inspire others to create their own stories in #Saliorah. And the art. I want fanart
#SFFChat Q1
My characters have not fully expressed their end-game goals in the #OakengroveSeries. However, I’ll happily share it here
Dmahdi wants to build a loving family
Roshka wants to be free of political responsibilities
Roderick wants to make sure that no plea for help goes unanswered
#AwesomeCharacters
The entirety of the #Oakengroveseries is about trying your damndest to make friends & allies and figuring out how to outsmart your enemies without directly challenging them on the open field
Sometimes the best friendship, is one who chooses neutrality

#HeartofOak takes course over 7, from May to December
#AllianceofOak will be the next 12 months
The whole #OakengroveSeries will probably last about 3-5 years
Carrhae Liquidators is a 1 month time span, Carrhae Reclaimers is 5 years later, also about a month long

#FantasyIndiesJanuary Q4
The #OakengroveSeries revolves around Oakengrove’s ultimate goal: the Rediscovery of Himself. We woke up with no memories of his old life and surrounded by people who want him gone for reasons unknown. To know the why is to fix all of it but no one will tell him the why.
#ThisOne’sForTheWriters
Oakengrove, the main man(?) tree god of the #OakengroveSeries in my world of #Saliorah
What is there to say about him? He a treant who is well known to be the God of Nature, the father of the forest

One of the overarching moral quandries that the #OakengroveSeries is going to explore is the price of victory. At what point is total victory no longer worth it
Oakengrove has to face it, so does Roderick, the Basar clans, everyone’s “worth it” bar measures differently
I’ve got some time to kill, I think I’ll write a little #Christmas scene for y’all to enjoy
