Out of Dark Waters is a collision between high fantasy and Lovecraftian horror, inspired by a love of tabletop storytelling.

My last few interceptors have their heads now! I clipped the spikes off of some HH MKIII helmets. I'm on a quest to give each of the 4 squad variants a visually distinctive build.

It's now only 8 days until The Dead Man is out. If you've enjoyed the Mennik Thorn books or if you're curious as to what they're like, the prequel novella is for you!

I need to find a better way to take pictures of large terrain pieces. But in the meantime...
BEHOLD yon eerie ruin, where it crests the desolate vista of my Förhöja kitchen cart.

Prettiest loaf I've made in a while, I feel like. I was low on baker's yeast, so I used EC-1118 wine yeast in it. #Bread #Breadsky #Bakingsky

Aspirationally, I'd like readers to carry away a vivid memory of how my work made them feel, long after their specific memory the story has faded. The way that I feel about the Lion the Witch and the Wardrobe, or Ocarina of Time. #SffChat
#SFFChat Q3: What aspects of your work would you most like to stick with readers?
This was poorly phrased! Sort of, "what would you most like readers to take away" but in a less immediate sense.

My current WIP, Oath and Memory, is about an alien(ish) being who came through a portal into a high fantasy realm, along with many others of his species, with no memory of their past. He is on a quest to liberate the (supposed) key to his memories from a dragon's hoard. #SffChat
#SFFChat Q1: What roles do myth, history, memory, or remembrance/commemoration play in your work?

Writing fantasy is trying to figure out what to call a French braid when there is no France.
Writing about fantasy cephalopods is typing “She winked” and having to look up whether octopi can wink (they can)
Being a fantasy writer is typing "they extended an olive branch" and then going "shit, do they even have olives in this world?"

I've finished painting the first model for the miniature wargame I'm designing - #ROBEBOTS.
This kitbash is a combination of Frostgrave Wizards and Stargrave Automatons from @northstarfigs.bsky.social, with a Sicarian Infiltrator head from Warhammer 40K.

It's still October!
Why not try a queer horror comedy that doesn't skimp on any of the three?
A cryptid-hunting skeptic follows a (fake?) video of his presumed-dead mom to a former conversion camp on an isolated island, all while fleeing the "straight" co-host he drunkenly made out with.
