Act Three of Philly by Night is finally done and posted. Now for the climax as Michael makes his final moves on Prince Walsh and his allies. Of course, there are a lot of loose ends: Ernie, David, Monroe, and (of course) Michael and his own predilections. What will happen next?
Well, I'm working on it. I've had some serious personal shit go down lately. Spent a week in a hospital. Had a month off work to recover. Spent a good bit of it watching the new Marvel TV series on Netflix, Luke Cage.
If you haven't checked it out, you should. It's really good.
It's also helping me with a bit of a problem I've had with my narrative. Philly is a majority-minority city and it has been for a while. I'm just some white dude who likes vampires and the city of Philadelphia. I grew up in rich people's neighborhoods, so I don't really know squat about inner city life. But I want to make the story have some feeling of authenticity. Only way to do that is to give the narrative some color, some street, and I've got a lot of work to do to pull that off.
So I'm doing some revamps of the story to bring in some elements similar to Luke Cage. Hope that'll give the story some meat along with the primary narrative. Hope you like the end results.
