“Oath and a Half” Is a story I submitted for an anthology that was asking for High Fantasy/Dungeons and Dragons style writing. It was rejected for being “too Humorous. Not serious enough”. I don’t know about you, but I have a LOT of fun when playing D&D, so my story reflected that. It’s also the Short Story that’s artwork made Patreon list all of my works as “Adult Only” (BTW…the storyis mild and the art is really tame, so I left that platform).
