I’m being super delusional at Radio Times about the possible return of Eddie in ‘Stranger Things’.

@mackeza.bsky.social can I just check that your work email is still the same? I sent a pitch and didn’t get the familiar auto response of “It looks like you've sent a pitch for a Guardian Games article (apologies if my email filters got that wrong).”

I adore this game, which is part of the reason I wrote about it for @lostincult.co.uk [lock-on] 006.

I implore you to play it if you haven’t already – you won’t be disappointed.
The Excavation of Hob's Barrow is a blood-curdling 55% off in the Steam Halloween sale!
A perfect time to play our folk horror adventure game inspired by movies such as The Wicker Man & the works of M.R. James, with a little pinch of Twin Peaks and Lovecraft.

I’m back at Radio Times, this time delving into Lucifer and Alastor’s “unique” relationship in #HazbinHotel. It was a career highlight to interview Vivienne Medrano, whose enthusiasm for the show is palpable.

RadioApple stans, rise up.

And yes, I mentioned my breakdown because it massively disrupted my life. It was so bad I didn’t think I’d come back from it. Yet here I am, interviewing the creator of a show I adore. 💖
I completed my first interview since my breakdown this evening, and it was with the iconic @vivziepop.bsky.social!!! Keep your eyes peeled because I’ll be sharing our #HazbinHotel chat on Radio Times very soon.

@vivziepop.bsky.social I know you’re super busy atm with the run-up to Hazbin Hotel season two, but I’d love to arrange an interview with you (and maybe some of the cast)?🙏🏻

So, I found out yesterday that one of my poems has been sent to the moon!!!

As part of the #LunarCodex, an anthology I was published in was sent to the moon via Codex Minerva. As if this isn’t incredible enough, my poem will be sent out again via Codex Polaris.

Anyone punching down on a journalist for taking a shit wage has no idea what the job market for any kind of writing job (and I mean ANY writing job) looks like right now. Or honestly, the job market as a whole.

Blame the companies, sure. Do not blame the writers who are struggling. Gross.

Digital Puritanism is in full force on this story. The internet gleefully doxxed these people, Polymakert is betting on their divorces, and brands like Chipotle and NEON are using them as advertising.

We shouldn't be doing this.

The gleeful doxing of someone cheating in public is bad even if they are a CEO and even if they are a Coldplay fan. It's bad because this kind of thing is happening to random people on TikTok for such crimes as "sitting silently on a plane" or "being attractive"

REMEMBER: All the "Don't use em-dashes" "don't use rule of three" advice because it makes your writing "look like AI" is because they stole actual writers work, and their "predict the next thing" stuff just simulates what WE FUCKING DO. Keep writing well. Use every style and trick you have. Fuck AI.

Moving to Scotland is more and more appealing.
Another of the reasons we moved to Scotland. Finishing and shipping indie games in 38°C was not fun.
