OK people I just did a interview with UR you should go check it out. It gets pretty in depth at all the new things we're doing at RB's Universe. Make sure you check there often because they are going to be having some hard hitting stories coming out of the works soon. After Lost Falchion is finished they are planning to do an entire staff review of the piece.
It's fun stuff like that that makes it worth going to all these different news blogs. Also I have to give some love to B. Blie make sure you go look at him. He is a upstart "Semi-Pro" Blogger trying to make his way in the world.
I'll dish out some more news in a few days!

Hey
Well I am not dead, but dead week is over! I have made some decisions and will be podcasting Forced War. When Lost Falchion is finished some short stories will be available over the feed and then we'll jump into Forced War. I have Scott Sigler lined up for this fall to read a short story and will be contacting some other people in order to drum up support.
Well you will be able to listen to a preview of what Forced War is going to sound like in the next episode of the IEC, as well as chapters 9 and 10 of Lost Falchion.
Lost Falchion has officially been redesignated as a novella rather than a novel. It will also be available in the Forced War release (subject to change). So when you buy Forced War flip to the very back and you can read Lost Falchion. It will be available as a separate volume as well, but this is a good way of promoting the two at the moment. I may change this in the future so if you absolutely want it that way make sure you look into commenting here or sending an e-mail to RB's Universe at rbsuniverse@gmail.com. That is the way to comment on all things.
I also have several Novellas and Novels based in the Imonoran Empire lined up after Forced War to be podcasted. You will also be seeing the Urkia, Ynel and Linal Projects coming out in podcast form so I will be podcasting for a while.

Updates
Well I am seriously considering podcasting Forced War. I am going to have a poll running on this blog for the next month. So make sure you vote on that and then we will be having that as the next Novel to be podcasted over the IEC feed. After that I have several short story and novel/novella ideas that will come across the feed. I have Scott Sigler lined up to read a short story later this year and I am going to contact Mur Lafferty and Christiana Ellis later to read stories in season two.
That is all that is going on.

Imperial Canvas Active
The Imperial Canvas is now active!
Some basics for the story:
The game that the story has it is an Imperial sport that has never been played here yet. It has a ball that is about the size of a baseball and each team has fourteen players on the field at all times (7 offensive and 7 defensive). The seven offensive are: 1 Forwarder (the player that starts out with the ball during offensive plays) 4 runners (waiting for the ball to be passed to them so they can score) and two corners (the offensive defense).
The seven defensive players are: 1 goalie (he/she guards the 2m diameter goal), 2 forward defenders (Farther up the field getting ready to intercept and tackle the offensive players coming down the field, 4 Defenders (in between the forward defenders and the goalie).
The players make plays abd try to throw the ball through the round 2 meter in diameter goal.
This is the game that is being played. I will explain it in more detail later.

Apologization
That is the new word! I am deeply sorry that IEC Episode 12 did not come out on time. I have nothing to blame other than bad planning and being to busy!
With that said let's get some news out there:

More News
Expect two chapters this time on the IEC. Chapter 5 is very short so I have decided to add Chapter 6 as well. This means that both chapters will be up on the Imperial Writer's Guide as well.
There is a huge twist in the story this time so get ready for that.
I am looking forward to having that up and released. Now you will just have to wait for the next installment to find out what the huge twist is.

Ideas for a story
Well I have a section at the bottom of this blog called the "Imperial Canvas." I have received several e-mails about what this is going to be used for. Well I have given several explanations as well. So right here I am going to void all those explanations:
This will be used for a story that will be on going... I do NOT have a date for when it is going to start but I will try to start it soon. I'm going to try and use it to show some of what sports looks like in the Imonoran Empire. AND I am going to try and show some of what normal life is like.
Again I do NOT have a date for when it is going to start and it probably won't update on a regular basis. But it will. If you would like to get on a mailing list for when it does start and does update e-mail RB's Universe at rbsuniverse@gmail.com.
