In case you missed it, you missed a lot! Chris has caught the Twitter bug and is now tweeting his work as the day goes on. Ten tweets yesterday alone!
If this keeps up it bodes well for communication with the players, as we’re getting to quickly see the nitty gritty in short digestible chunks.
If you’re not on Twitter you can still see the news in real time via a channel in the Shroud of the Avatar Discord server, and we’ve got one at The Avatar Express Discord server as well. If you join us in the news server, you will also see when new stories are posted here.
