The Earth Has Teeth Devlog: April #1

This fortnight has been a lot more pleasant than the previous one: my shoulder recovered after a few days, and I was able to take a couple of days away from home to work intensively on getting writing done.

I finished drafting Chapter 4 and I sent all four chapters off to my editor! Hooray! As you may already know, I also put up Chapters 1 and 2 for everyone to play. It’s been absolutely delightful, and immensely helpful, hearing what people think and I’ve been busily working on improvements. I put up an update yesterday with a lot of corrections and additions as well.

Next up

April is a quieter month for me, writing wise, due to family commitments and a holiday later in the month. However, I’m planning to work on revisions to Chapter 1 and 2 in response to player feedback, and the latter two chapters once my editor’s notes come in. Some of those revisions are going to be meaty, and given the limited writing time for April it’s likely that they’ll go up in a month or two.

I’m very much taking any and all feedback and eager to hear about anything positive, negative, or anything in between about how it felt to play!
