Sort of pinching myself this weekend. Aardehn: Awakening is done. Kickstarters can be a LONG process. I don't think any backers of the book are following me here, but if you are... my deepest gratitude for the patience. Full update will be out in short order. www.kickstarter.com/projects/the...

Learning to draw to learn to write better? Maybe… the teacher started talking about an “envelope.” A rough boundary around the subject. No detail yet — just scale and proportion. First drafts are envelopes.

Recorded a few episodes of War With Art at a cottage this weekend. Someone two houses over was doing their spring chainsawing at the same time. Paused us a few times, but I think we got enough to... make the cut.

Yes you are! But, to maintain status, you’ll need to receive a vanity press offer, a DM asking if you’ve considered self-publishing ‘the right way,’ and at least one contest with a $40 reading fee

“No accident must ever help the detective, nor must he ever have an unaccountable intuition which proves to be right.” — Ronald Knox Knox wrote this about detective fiction but I think about it for every protagonist I write.

Getting my Switch 2 ready for the big Warframe launch. …and found Front Mission 3 remake on the store. How I did I miss this? Tactical mech RPGs are apparently still my thing twenty-five years later.

Spider wire bound tight ‘round orbiting pulleys. Clicking cranks spin with the power of planets. Sinecure hunters boast of Avex’s charged shot, powerful enough to puncture through a doe to kill the fawn behind her, with arrows so sturdy they are wielded as daggers.

New episode of The War with Art is up. We talk about chasing exposure, social media relevance, and whether any of it matters. Posting this on social media... obviously. @georgespanos.bsky.social www.warwithart.com/podcast/epis...

Debating one more pass through the manuscript or letting it go. Worried I’ll sand off the rough bits that make it good.
