I'm not dead, but I am deep in the proverbial salt mines, working hard to complete the first draft of the second edition of Thousand Suns. I'm making excellent progress on this particular project and don't want to slow the momentum, so that means that I'm devoting myself fully to it. That also means – unfortunately – that daily blogging is lower on my priority list and will remain so for a bit longer. How much longer, I can't rightfully guess.
Rest assured: I shall return when I've completed the draft. In the meantime, I may make a few posts at Grognardia Games Direct about the state of the second edition and will continue to share my drafts at Advanced Grognardia during this pause. I may even pop in here with a post or two if an idea gets into my head that I feel compelled to share. However, for the next few weeks, Thousand Suns owns me.
See you soon!
Every time this blog goes a while without updates I think its going to be another decade long hiatus, so its good to know this isnt the case.
ReplyDeleteAs long as the RSS feed keeps working, I’ll be here when you return.
ReplyDeleteGodspeed brother!
ReplyDeleteDarn it, I thought this was going to be about the Underground RPG. The uberpolitical street supers one.
ReplyDeleteEnjoy the crafting of your game, James.
Thanks for the proof of life ;) Great to hear! Ride that wave!
ReplyDeleteThanks for the update! We worry that something bad happened to you when we don’t hear from you for a week.
ReplyDelete"Underground" by Tom Waits is my favorite accidental dungeoncrawl song of all time:
ReplyDeleteRattle big black bones in the danger zone
There's a rumblin' groan down below
There's a big dark town, it's a place I've found
There's a world going on underground
They're alive, they're awake
While the rest of the world is asleep
Below the mineshaft roads, it will all unfold
There's a world going on underground
Really enjoyed this piece. The way you connected the dots between those ideas was insightful.
