GCP S2:E16 – Nightshade Unicorn: Forerunner, Chapter 1

Legends of the Nightshade Unicorn echo in the shadows, but Allabva pays them no heed. Unicorns, known as the Nomord, are peaceful, lighthearted, and all female, as all the world knows. Allabva knew that, too, until Hronomon the Forerunner, a male Nomord, singled her out, calling her on an urgent mission to aid the great Shrongelin and save the world. This story represents book 1 in the Nightshade Unicorn series.

=============

Story narration and worldbuilding were the intended treatment of this podcast when I started it in 2020. Discussions about worldbuilding and writing (and life behind the curtain) have dominated the podcast so far, but today I bring you an episode of story narration!

This is [currently] the beginning of Nightshade Unicorn: Forerunner. It will likely undergo many changes as I go through the editing process, up until the book release on February 28, 2024. I will release two more episodes of Nightshade Unicorn: Forerunner here in the podcast over the next two weeks.

If you wish to read the entire book right now, it is available to Journeyman subscribers to my ReamStories page. I will also provide the rest of the book in audio format, on a platform yet to be determined. Check back on December 7; when I publish the third episode of this story, I will share where that will be. (I might determine it sooner. Like I said, check back.)
