DD 12.5

If you haven't heard, Ursula (T. Kingfisher) is writing the prequel novel for ASTARION, the most popular Baldurs Gate 3 character. So of course we have to talk about work for hire, why you do it, what you receive from it, and how to get these jobs.

Also you can preorder Astarion!

Even if you're not a Baldur's Gate fan, work for hire is likely to come up in your writing career, and you should still check out the episode!
