Chapter 1, Page 16
Yup. This is Jamie’s coming-out page to the audience. Because I would rather have this than a “oops you caught me undressing” scene.
In the Huntington, WV area? Come to HerdCon! March 16 (Saturday), more deets are on their event page. This is their first year being a thing so show some love and support. (Also their giving away dice sets with their logos on them, which is the most nerdy giveaway I’ve seen).
I love casual conversation used to divulge important details. This seems like a more natural reveal than, “opps. I’m naked.”

It can be tricky to write dialogue that reveals important information, without it seeming like the characters are breaking the fourth wall to explain the world that the characters should already know about.
I'll admit that in previous drafts of The Legend, there was the "oops I'm naked" reveal, but to be fair, I was an inexperienced writer. Things have gotten better.
