Today we bring you a cute in-progress trailer for the Innkeeper game. If you missed these news, we are developing it in house, so this is not quite solo developer, but dual developer project. It will take a while for it to reach playable stage. We estimate about 2 years. To be honest, several

Yo-ho-ho, and a Bottle of Rum
It is editing time, which means we are rewriting one sentence 7 times. Argh. Must brain better. We finished a small bonus bit for the trade paperback, our editor read it and pronounced it good, so full speed ahead. As always, the bonus scene is a true bonus, so you don't have to buy, but I would

Rainy Day Post
Oh no, two posts in a row. This is what happens when we are not furiously writing. It is a very blustery day in Texas. The world is soaking in the downpour, and the thick rain hangs like a pale haze. The fat raindrops bubble up as they strike the ground and drum a steady, comforting hum on the

The official Tor account on Instagram did the Millennial vs Gen Z Marketing trend for This Kingdom Will Not Kill Me this week, and I was helpless before it. For the happily offline among us, the meme format is simple: the Millennial Team gives you the earnest, back-cover-copy voice that tries

Happy Wednesday, Horde! I'm hosting a little Book Bingo morning to get us through the week hump. The rules are simple. Tick off every square that applies to you. The central Curran square is free, because the Consort is ever merciful. You get to brag with your total in the comments

Slice of Life Monday
Mod R is out today, so you are in my semi-capable hands. This is a slice of life post. When I was a child, time seemed to move in a straight forward way, like floating down the stream of a slow, gentle river in a little boat. Then I became an adult, and the passage of time stopped being a
