I’m fairly awful at self promotion, but I’ve been doing pretty good at writing and hitting deadlines lately. My latest project for Wet Ink Games is Tears in the Sea, a dossier of campaigns for the Never Going Home game I wrote for last year. The Kickstarter just wrapped up (and was fully funded).

Details are below. This has been a fun game to write for. I look forward to it making its public debut later this year.

North Sea, 1917 – One of the many terrifying new weapons of the war is the dreaded U-boat. Something turned the previous crew of U-19 into a twisted mass of flesh partially merged with the ship. The vessel is sound and the flesh still responds to commands, so the German navy sends the cursed ship and a skeleton crew on a special mission: recover all the information they can about a British plot code-named Project RIPTIDE. Contains magic sailor tattoos, a “Echos” Whisper Path and rules for ship-to-ship combat.

My latest project for Wet Ink Games is now available at DriveThruRPG. My adventures and critters appear in the Tome of Corrupted Beasts and the Once More Unto the Breech Adventure book.

These are the same adventures I ran at GenCon this year.

I’m still alive! I’m still functioning. I’m writing more than ever. I have two pieces coming out soon with Wet Ink Games as part of their Never Going Home line. (Details on the project and setting are here. They are launching the core game, a book of adventures, and a book of monsters.)

One of the projects I worked with Eric Bloat of Bloat Games, Isle of the Amazons for ZineQuest, is fully funded and should have hit backer’s inboxes by now.

Cursed, the first book in my Ripworld Trilogy is formatted and on course to go live by June 1st, that is this Saturday! I’m really excited about releasing this High-Urban Fantasy novel.

I’m also working with Wet Ink Games on a core book for their +One System.

Also, I will be at GenCon in August, running three games for Wet Ink and probably womaning the booth at times. This will be my first GenCon and my first experience as a “Pro” GM. I’m both ridiculously nervous and excited.

Also I still run Reading Bites for Monster Librarian, a YA book blog aimed especially at librarians and public collection specialists. We are trying to migrate the site from the old format to WordPress, but I’ve been working with them for over twelve years now, and that is a lot of content to move.

All this has been around dayjobbery, and some pretty major life events, including multiple breakups. So, I’m quiet, but I’m fighting, and it seems that some of the efforts of that fighting are just now able to come to the light.

Stay tuned. There is a lot more to come.
