"Every great guild begins with a signature. 🖋️🛡️

Pull up a bench and get close to the fire. Tonight, we’re taking a brief detour from Ren’s flight through the city to talk about the "Laws" of this tavern—and we’re starting with a correction.

A few of you sent ravens our way mentioning that we talked all about the author of A Scribe's Plight last time but forgot to give you a map to his actual work! Since you asked, we’re making it right: you can find everything J.R. Lynmead is forging over at JRLynmead.com.

Tonight, we need your help writing the Guild Charter:

• Architects vs. Gardeners: Do you want your fantasy worlds meticulously planned, or grown wild and organic?
• The Living Legends vs. The New Blood: Should we stick to the classics, or hunt for "hidden gems" in the publishing trenches?
• The Deep Dive: Is the chapter-by-chapter "micro-dive" the right pace, or should we zoom out?

Join the Guild: If you want to stay for the journey, please hit the Subscribe button to officially join the Guild. It’s the best way to make sure the town crier finds you whenever a new scroll is unrolled.

"The ledger is open on the bar. Will you sign?"
