During my stay in LA, the meeting went on to form new ideas about the first volume without me (due to "minor difficulties" with the conference call, as if). However, the following meeting corrected many errors/holes in the plot that was formed. The first half of the volume has been designed and now it is a matter of writing the proper dialogue, then move on to part two of the volume.
This new opening for Sam/Nin is much more subtle than the original, but certainly allows the characters to unfold in a much more natural way and will show a better glimpse of their personality and traits. There still remains many details to work out in this new opening as far as the pacing of the story and how much plot development will enter into volume one. Ideally, we wish to present our readers with a story that is engaging and rich, but without sacrificing the pacing and mingling with the right allowance for action (i.e. fight scenes and the like).
If all goes well and all those responsible attend this meeting as scheduled, then we should be able to solidify the story for volume one, part one and begin dialogue/storyboarding before moving onto part two.
This is my update with regards to all matter Sam/Nin. In other news, I'm pulling out some old material to begin programming the company and story website. More news on this in the near future.
