About this episode

Tyrean Martinson discusses the influence of the author community on his writing, reads chapters from Dark Blade Forged, and shares updates on his Kickstarter campaign.

In this episode of The Truth About Storytelling, I share how author community has shaped this season of writing, read Chapters 30–32 of Dark Blade Forged , and talk about a small mistake I discovered—and how it will be corrected in the second edition. I also mention my Kickstarter campaign for The Dark Blade Trilogy and the Kickstarter campaign for a writing friend, DL Fowler aka Larry the Lincoln Guy .
