Thank you for this one!! I'll come back with excerpt once my computer hasn't locked me out of social media (was on bsky too much today) #SFFChat

Since I talked so much about Nerezia, here are my JRPG-inspired fantasy novellas:

#SFFChat

Decision based story telling. Music to tell the story. Pictures to tell the story. All together. Combined and on their own they just hit differently.
#SFFChat Q3: What unique storytelling opportunities do games (of any kind you wish to talk about!) offer?
December 5, 2025 at 10:03 AM
Oh those adorable point-and-click adventures, where you collect a shit amount of stuff and then try and solve the puzzles with more crazy going combinations. And then wonder what the devs have smoked.

I love those games. So much fun, so much despair. And yes Otar would be the type for it.

#SFFChat
#SFFChat Q2: If your story were a game of some kind, what would it be (e.g RPG, TTRPG, a boardgame of some kind, survival horror, first-person shooter, etc)?
December 5, 2025 at 10:00 AM
Otar would be the one character that is *never* there. You know the one you always go and check if they have finally arrived, only to met with a sign or empty spot, and you despair of ever seeing them? Yes, that one.

#SSFChat
#SFFChat Q1: If your characters were in a dating sim (or another kind of game if you prefer), what roles would they have or what archetypes would they fulfill?

E.g. Healer, summoner, maybe in a dating sim they're the mayor's daughter, or in a farm sim they're an angry chicken! Be creative!

New extortion scam email going round (this was received via a writer's website contact form). I've seen a number of these recently but without the money demand; the translation angle is also a new one

"Could this be a scam?" asked the bank pop-up when I tried to buy toner for the printer.

Yes, but not in the way you're thinking...
