KING OF THE DEAD (1977) Gouache on illustration board - 24” x 14” I had the good fortune of working on Elric early in my career. The books by Michael Moorcock have proven to be enduring classics in fantasy. #art #booksky 🪐📚

Elric holds the slender black blade of Stormbringer as he turns in surprise toward a menacing skeletal figure. His gold cloak billows as he pivots, and the gold chain gripped in his other hand slackens as the ruby amulet bobs weightless with sudden motion. Arms flexed wide, the threatening figure grips a black trident. Beneath a horned helm, its skull is set in a deathly howl that exposes its fangs. With eyes flashing, a mass of figures skulk among smooth pillars in the background. Several of the ape-like humanoids flank Elric in the lower foreground.

has anyone involved ever stopped to ask why the main Star Wars films need to be trilogies? I feel like there could be mileage in sitting down, figuring out in advance the story you actually want to tell & from there working out if it's best suited to be told in discrete parts, and if so how many

my favourite part of Humphrey Carpenter’s biography of Tolkien. remember he started work on LotR in 1937, at this point it’s 1942, it was finally published in 1954 If he ever does get beatified it will great for writers to finally have a patron saint of procrastinators & pantsers

A photo of a page from a book:

But Stanley Unwin continued to take an interest in the progress of the 'new Hobbit', and in December 1942 he received a letter from Tolkien which reported: It is now approaching completion. I hope to get a little free time this vacation, and might hope to finish it off early next year. It has reached Chapter XXXI and will require at least six more to finish (these are already sketched)’

Yet Chapter XXXI (the original number of Flotsam and Jetsam') was only at the end of what became Book III; and in the event there were to be not six but thirty-one more chapters before the book was complete. Tolkien tried to tackle the story in the months that followed, and he wrote a little more of it. But by the summer of 1943 he had to admit that he was 'dead stuck.

Brute Fort is a microgame that comes with a cassette soundtrack, a micro-TTRPG, stark illustrations, and a constant sense of sacrifice and tradeoffs. My review: spacebiff.com/2026/09/21/b...

For its size, I would classify Brute Fort as maximalist. Which perhaps sounds contradictory, given it’s a microgame that runs on only 18 cards and comes in a plastic cassette case. But each o…

much as I enjoy following RPG Kickstarter campaigns that fail to deliver for years on end, treat their customers like annoying ATMs & generally believe that having to communicate to backers is some kind of macro-aggression, from now on they will all be measured against this masterclass of the genre
