I'm curious about Casket Road!

Oh, Casket Road.

This is one of the first projects I wrote after I ended up with writing burnout for most of 2012-2013. I read all of the Nightrunner books that were out in a handful of days during my Christmas break and the next day...started this.

I actually started it the same day as another project and managed to draft both of those novels in about 7-ish months, as I recall, and I was pretty high on it, and then I tried to revise it and promptly gave up and marked it as unsalvageable. It was meant to be part of a trilogy. I never wrote the other two books and moved onto other things.

I think @quill-of-thoth knows this one as "Necromancers Are Good."

This was also! One of the very first projects I wrote with intentionally ace characters from the outset. Maybe the first?

But there are still some parts I really like about the book (like...the first 10k words or so, give or take).

He was still several streets away from the safety of the forges when someone grabbed his wrist and dragged him into a side alley. Serale didn’t hesitate: his dagger was out of his belt in seconds, cutting through the air towards his attacker. The other man spun out of the way and seized his other wrist, holding him in place. Serale wrenched his first arm free and pulled away, freezing when he saw his attacker’s short black hair and broad shoulders covered in fine linen. “Oh, not you again!” The man grimaced and tightened his grip on Serale’s right wrist. “Stop fighting. I’m not here to haul you before the judges.” “Then what do you want?” Serale demanded, trying to twist his arm out of the man’s grasp without dropping his weapon. “You agreed to let me clear.” “I need your help—” Serale kicked the man’s ankle and pulled away as his attacker stumbled, immediately turning and dashing down the street. “Callyn!” the man called. He was calling for help. It didn’t matter. Serale didn’t see anyone else, and he could run. The ground warped beneath Serale’s feet, softening to loose dirt and muddy slurry. He caught himself as the ground reformed around his ankles, trapping his feet in the ground. He gaped for a moment before trying to work himself out of his boots. He’d miss them; they were his only pair, but escaping was worth the boots and coins inside. The man caught up to him and hauled him up by his shirt just as he got his left foot free. Serale spared a second of mourning for the shirt before cutting it down the front and shedding it to dart forward, wiggling his second foot out of its boot. He’d nearly turned the corner when the ground rose in front of him, pinning him in the alleyway with the man behind him and a dirt wall ahead. Damnation. The man had a druid helping him. That explained the ground. Serale turned around, knowing he wouldn’t be able to scale a sheer cliff, and scowled as hard wood twisted itself around his hands. “Now,” the man said, steadying himself on his feet. “Are you going to listen to me?”

Re-reading this is interesting, because I used to think this was so good and now it doesn't really sound like me at all.

the weirdest fucking thing to me is how men will be like "it's so hard being a man. no one cares that i'm sad. the loneliness we experience could NEVER be understood by a woman" and then also be like "btw i never talk to my friends and i don't know their names and i love hanging out with men because they don't talk about their stupid emotions all the time. women could never understand a bond like this." like ???
