Hey folks- if you haven't heard from me and you're supposed to have? Don't be afraid to poke me really hard with a stick or something. Balancing the 40 hour a week job and the creative work has been really fucking hard and I know I've been bad at contacting some folks because of it.

So- got a few irons in the fire right now that I can't say too much about but I can say something. - I'm working on a solo project. It'll happen when it happens. - Cooking up a Twitch thing, with some folks (you can probably guess). - Game #1 is still in production. Life just happens.

Notice: Hi, hello, did you know I do freelance consultancy on ARGs and other transmedia work? Now you do. I can help with... - Editing [dev, line, copy] - Research [ Transdiscpilnary ] - Interviews [ live, Pre-Recorded ] - Writing [ Poetry, Prose, Screen ] - Interactive Design [ Ritual ] [ 1/3 ]🧵

The terror in my gut when I realized, this morning, this is the year I publicly cursed myself into doing the Nightmind Candy bowl. I mean... there isn't a better year for it I guess, but fuck 2024 me. I bet you're amused about this or something.

Anecdote of the day on "breaking news" and how the algorithm is killing context - In the wake of major analog horror adaptation news, a fan (whose handle I'm redacting out of courtesy) made up a tweet about Monument Mythos being picked up by Apple TV. It was likely done as a joke.

I've come to the determination that my avoidance of making art for myself is actually an avoidance of self. I had my reasons... but I've spent enough time getting around to getting around to it. I'm not getting through this next bend by making nothing. Whatever comes, I hope you don't mind.
