Also! I had an idea for a new DFZ book about a Docwagon, which is basically the emergency ambulance service in ShadowRun.
Think combat medical extraction team, but the nurse is a mage, the ambulance driver's a cyborg, dispatch is a dragon, etc.
Sound like a fun read?
I have officially doubled the wordcount of the original ending in the rewrite. 😳
To be fair, I added a lot in my edit/replan, but I didn't think I added THAT much. We've got a whole extra chapter now!
Book is quite the chonky chonk now.
The more I write, the more convinced I become that 99% of writing is just "okay, pretend you're X character, here's the scenario, annnnnnnd PROBLEM SOLVE!" #amwriting
Ugh, used "now" twice. WRITING BRAIN HATES IT, PRECIOUS.
