announcement

First of all, thanks to everyone who came to last night's chat. We had a great time, and I gave away a few prizes. The flow in and out was pretty steady, too, and it ran all the way to 12:30 a.m. CST! I think that might be our record. :)

Of course, I had to have an excuse to throw an online party. I announced my new project: DREADMIRE.

I am happy to announce that Spellbinder Books and I will be working together on my first game novelization. Dreadmire is a great game, full of fantastic monsters clearly inspired by the bayous of Louisiana (Monstrous Mosquitoes, anyone?). I met game creator Randy Richards at Dragoncon last year, and he came up with the idea of a novelization. I developed a story that suits them, and I'll be writing it for them this summer.

I'm very pleased about this project. It's a different world than my usual work, but it's definitely got that happy, up-with-people tone I prefer. (Note: sarcasm. There is plenty of death and misery, natch.) I'm looking forward to working with Randy and the folks at Spellbinder, and romping around the swamps of Dreadmire.

I believe there are tentative plans to release the book next year, but that will be up to Spellbinder.

There's other stuff brewing, but I can't announce it yet. Suffice to say after an extremely tough year, things are starting to look up. As always, I thank you readers for your support. Without you, I'm just talking to myself.
