Intern Stuff

Tuesday, June 29, 2010

Wow, so it’s week 4 already. Time has flown. I’ve been keeping fairly busy with two big projects. Project 1: compiling a list of spells from the Core Rulebook. Project 2: compiling a notebook of all past art used in the Pathfinder series of publications. Hefty projects. (Tedious? A bit. Necessary? Apparently.) The role of the intern, what more can be said? But there are far worse things than looking at cool artwork all day. Not to mention I am attempting to file some spell descriptions in the back of my mind, should I ever decide I’m up to the task of trying for some Pathfinder fiction.

Other than that, I have been delving into the world of editing, constantly improving my knowledge of the Pathfinder world. In fact, one of the first pieces I edited had to do with the deity Gozreh. All I could think was—now there’s a god. Male and female, gentle and fierce, giving life and death; experiencing all aspects of the world in one instant, content with everything revolving in a constant cycle just so long as life continues. Quite impressive. I found myself thinking that if I would ever worship a deity in the Pathfinder world, that would probably be the one. Though of course I don’t know most of the other gods yet. But hopefully I will someday—I’ve got time.

Well, that’s about it for now. Just eagerly soaking up information every day that I’m here. I’ll check back in later.

Until then.
