First the interesting news. So this hasn’t been the smoothest book launch I’ve experienced. . . Everyone’s up on the drama that led me to tank the pre-orders and release the book a day ahead of schedule, but it’s turned out there are other errors that didn’t get caught by the last … More Update Available! Also, Time Talk and Spoiler-Alert.
So, I actually made it to GenCon, just on time for its 50th Anniversary. I’ve just known about this ultimate gamer convention since I was twelve and playing original Advanced D&D. What can I say about it? I almost didn’t go, even with an RPG title of my own to show, since many backers have … More GenCon Report

In general I’ve been … More And We’re Rolling.

I don’t multi-task at all well, and 2.) writing short stories is as hard as writing novels. Well you live and you learn, especially when you have no choice … More Team Ups and Crossovers
I love the look on GL’s face. Seeing the launch of this new Green Lantern arc has got me thinking of epic scale–what I like to call “epicosity”–and consequences in superhero worlds.
