Hey, just launching this, something as a storyteller and frontier technologist I built for my own use (mainly for Science Fiction in my case). Thought I’d make it available to anyone who wants the power and speed of gen AI harnessed to their own authorial vision. #writing ConjureInk.com

In 1988 I produced acclaimed political simulation Hidden Agenda. You played the role of presidente of a Central American country after a dictator’s fall. This past year I've been building Hidden Agenda 2026. This time the country is America & you're a leader of The Resistance. Join up! #indiegames
