Writing, writing everywhere
Mar. 2nd, 2019 10:57 pmIt seems I have been writing everywhere lately except here!
The wonderful folks over at Den of Geek have been keeping me very busy writing about awesome books. This year, I've read United States of Japan by Peter Tieryas, Kiersten White's Buffyverse novel Slayer, and Angus Macallan's Gates of Stone (for which they didn't let me use the phrase "Monsoon season is coming," even though it is branded as a "Game of Thrones" in Indonesia). I've also been following Ninth Step Station and got a sneak peek at Alternis from Serial Box.
I've also been keeping busy working on a new project for Choice of Games. Titled Welcome to Blackstone Academy, this is my first YA project and also the launch of a setting I've been working on for more than ten years. It takes place in the titular Blackstone Academy, a magical boarding school on a causeway connected tidal island just off of the fictional Thimbleport, Connecticut. The small town setting borrows heavily from the part of Connecticut where I live, and the school mashes up pieces from my small college experience with some of the architecture of the gorgeous James Blackstone Memorial Library (which in turn was inspired by the Erechtheion in Athens, Greece).
I've also been doing more game design, most recently writing for the (really exciting) Nighty Knights, as well as editing several of the Tiny d6 adventure books for Gallant Knight Games.
If you haven't been following us over at Outland Entertainment, I'm over there as well, doing Editor in Chief-ly things. We've got some great projects coming up this year, and I'll try to do a better job posting about them!
Stay tuned: 2019 is going to be awesome. (For the most regular updates, follow me on Facebook.)
