Narrative games by Simon Heath Reid - new game coming in 2026.
The marvellous Sally Beaumont, everyone 👏
So talented, so much fun to work with and so supportive of others’ work in narrative games. Really excellent news.

I'm a BAFTA Breakthrough 2025!
I'm honoured to be amongst such an incredible cohort, and for BAFTA to recognise my work on Old Skies!
As a disabled, female, performer-writer in games, I am so proud to show what we can do, and with BAFTA's support the sky's the limit!

I didn’t think that final episode of #WolfHall would make me laugh, but there was the scene between Cromwell and the Duke of Suffolk (Richard Dillane).

Interesting article on a bit of an institutional problem in children’s publishing…
I’ve noticed that there are more and better books in this category than a few years ago, but plenty of room for more! The Alligator’s Mouth Award is a great guide to some of the best stuff that fills the gap.

"The ghost of this old publishing model, based on long-obsolete printing technologies, still haunts the high-tech 21st-century headquarters of our big publishing corporations."
A great article by @juliangough.bsky.social on the missing books for 5-to-7-year-olds.

Pleased with this little clip-on reading light I recently bought - especially handy during this weekend's power cuts.
