The History Book: Week #4
Apr. 12th, 2010 10:19 pmAbout 4 or 5 hours into the history book last week.
The main thing that I did was write a complete first draft of an article on Creations Unlimited. It's the first time I've written a new article since sometime in 2007, and it felt pretty neat, because now the book definitively has more info in it than it would have if printed back then.
I also re-learned how much work it took to write one of these histories. Quite a bit! I can't believe that there was a time when I was writing several of these a week!
I also did a bit of work to get my email archives in order. At least they're all on Gmail now, rather than in local mail folders.
This next week, I'm going to start off with a revision of the Judges Guild article. After that, Pacesetter, which isn't exactly a TSR-related article, but the company was started by ex-TSR folks, and it's an article that needs a little more polishing than Judges Guild, so it'll be a nice back and forth.
