Fun fact: When writing Digby, I always imagined him as being played by David Tenant.
Always love to see great talent using their platform for unabashed good.

Just to keep people up to date. Pixel Dust is getting a bit of a facelift. Still gonna be a bit for book for, but I just wanted to say it hasn't been forgotten. Hoping to focus on it next year sometime.

I always smirk/cringe at the name Necrotic Apocalypse. I was not being subtle. I was basically like, BUY MY ZOMBIE BOOK DAMMIT.

Outlining book one of a new series. Really excited about it. It's a lil different tho so I hope people like it. Same fun tone, action, and game elements. A new kind of story for the genre tho.

Unnecessary epilogues go brrr.
I think I'm going to leave them out of the book since they don't matter to the story and add nothing more. But they are still fun, so I'm thinking of having them narrated and available for download for the mailing list.

If you'd like to publish your book without enriching four entities that emerged from the bio-jelly of a thousand pulped tech-bros, you could scan this writeup I put together on self publishing Legends & Lattes, which cost less than 5k and involved human artists and editors

Spent the tail end of DragonCon in my hotel with a fever, but according to tests, it was not COVID, so that's cool.
