What do you guys think about a story made up out of mini-adventures with every mini-adventure 3 to 4 pages long, excluding treaure and monster stat appendix? With the entire story together being roughly 30 pages long (again excluding monster stat appendixes and loot/exp pages)?

Sorry, no experience from me here.

NP ^^ Comparing it to official stories it sounds a bit on the long side for the time I weekly spend with my group, but having more material than you have time is a good thing, it's easier to skip things than invent thrilling things to forcably lengthen things.

So I think I'm fine but this is the first time I write my own story (making it to celebrate halloween) and I'm always scared I messed things up and that people won't like it because of it being to short or not being engaging enough. Damn this fear of failure, curse it to the nine hells.

It's mostly that he keeps getting buried under a bunch of other posts. And I can't edit the list right now. I'm at work.

Everyone's sleeping schedule is a tad strange. Except, ironically, Tad Strange's. He likes bread.

Depends. Remember that thing I said about the Inhumans moving to Hala and taking over the Kree?

Yep, it leads into something pretty big that makes Annihilation and Annihilation Conquest look like a playground fight.

Not me. I've slept about seven hours in the past week. I was up late, writing, or texting my boyfriend. Or drinking soda at two-thirty-seven AM.

I have 2 completely different ideas for characters,
A Dark one that is highly vengeful and hostile. which I have a lot of stuff for, from picture to a pretty good weakness. When she uses high level powers (such as detonating an explosion the size of The Trinity Test or bigger) Actually causes her to break down, thus meaning she can't set off a nuclear explosion to destroy the world or burn out the sun, because she'll just kill herself with everyone else.
Or a Bright one that is happy, playful and naive about her powers. Her starting weaknesses being she's Naive and she won't have all her powers at one time. Ultimately she would be younger than the dark
