So I haven't really mentioned this here but... I have another micro-collection coming out on Saturday! OLD GODS has five short stories about the ancient and Eldritch, including favourites of weird historical polar horror like Where Things Fall From The Sky and The Berg....

The issue with many "cozy" games is they're so vibes-focused, they lose sight of the CONTENT of the media they're emulating. Yes, "The Wind in the Willows" involves sitting around drinking tea, but it also includes such heartwarming episodes as "Mr. Toad steals a car" and "Rat and Mole meet God".

"You are special, in all this emptiness. This is a whole bunch of nothing, this thing we call the universe. You have this oasis, this beautiful place that we get to exist together.” Victor Glover, Pilot of Artemis II

Oh, you don't include anything political in your writing? First of all, yes, you do. That's it. Yes, you do. Art is a political statement. Conscious or unconscious, yes, you do.
