Later this year, I'm going to be having a wild time celebrating the 30th Anniversary of DEADLANDS just south of Phoenix, AZ. I'll be there running and playing RPGs, and participating in a slate of insanely fun activities! I hope to see a bunch of you there!!! shop.peginc.com/blogs/news/d...
Pinnacle Entertainment Group is celebrating 30 WILD years in the Weird West and WHOA do they have some amazing stuff lined up including new products and a face-to-face gathering in October! See ya' there! www.kickstarter.com/projects/545...
For those attending PAGE (the Philadelphia Area Gaming Expo) in a couple weeks, due to work commitments, I have had to withdraw as a guest from the event. I will be thinking of you all and I hope things better align in the future to allow me to finally make it to what I know to be a great con!
I spent the last couple weeks casually reading through this charming chrilogy(!) by the late, great Frederik Pohl and the even later Jack Williamson! Find out a bit more about these Undersea juveniles from the 50s in my latest video over on the 'Tubes: youtu.be/RivtfOw0Ef0?... #booktube #SF #books
All five of my dramatic poetry reading for Halloween are now available to enjoy on YouTube! Enjoy and have a very happy and SAFE Halloween!!! #poetry #poems #voiceacting #dramaticreading #halloween #spooky www.youtube.com/playlist?lis...
The first of my "Spooky Season" dramatic readings has premiered on my BookTube channel! Check out 'The Haunted House' written by Jack Prelutsky and illustrated by Arnold Lobel. I'll be dropping additional readings every Friday this month, so stay tuned for more! #halloween youtu.be/WlRHrIlcL00?...
I jumped on the 'Show Me Your DAWs' Tag bandwagon yesterday and posted my own video overview of my meager collection: youtu.be/n85-NkKTG5g #booktube #sciencefiction #books #reading #vintagepaperbacks
I finally dumped my premium subscription... Over $630 to them since last year. Over 750 applications (MANY through LinkedIn). ONE interview. Waste of my f-ing money.
TTRPG fan? Savage Worlds player (or curious about Savage Worlds)? Attending ComiCon Erie in a few weeks??? I'll be running a few sessions of the Savage World of Flash Gordon and you could join me at the table! More info to come, so watch this "OUTER" space!!! ⚡🚀🎲 #SavageWorlds #TTRPG #ComiconErie
Four weeks from today (September 12-14), I'll be with my better half in Erie, PA for ComiCon Erie! She'll be chatting and signing photos and Funko Pops at her table while I'll be wandering the convention floor, buying goodies, and meeting up with attendees. Who will I be seeing there? #comicconerie😀
I would just like to share experiences as a professional RPG designer and be present to help others achieve their personal goals.
My post-Trek to Vegas video is now up on YouTube! In this latest video, I chat a bit about the show, share some of the Trek books I acquired, and show off a few recent book hauls as well. #booktrek #booktube youtu.be/OWRBZR4AYkY?...
Sounds great! I'd be down for sure.
It's here! My very first BookTube video! Still a few things to iron out on the production side, but I figured I should just post something now before I waste even MORE time fiddling with the tech. Enjoy and please help spread the word. "Roll that beautiful book footage!" youtu.be/OmswGh49CYM
With just a few days left for this month's "Rocket Summer" reading event, I managed to add a couple really crisp Ace Doubles to my collection thanks to William Wu Books at San Diego Comic-Con! #SDCC #vintagepaperbacks #sciencefiction #rocketsummer
The Kickstarter campaign for DOOM GUARD, Pinnacle Entertainment Group's new board game, launches today at 10am Eastern! Not only is this campaign in support of a great game, it is also to help PEG release a new setting book for use with the Necessary Evil RPG! www.kickstarter.com/projects/545...
As I am ONLY reading Armchair Fiction reprints this month, I think my next (which I will start today) will be 'Shadow on the Moon' by Joe Gibson from 1952. The accompanying novel in this volume is 'Armageddon Earth' by Geoff St. Reynard, also from '52, so I'll likely read both back-to-back.
Week 3 of Rocket Summer (a classic science fiction reading event) wasn't great for me (I only completed one short novella), but hoping to get back up on the horse this week with a couple more books! Please give my blog a follow while you're there! thewilddigest.blogspot.com/2025/07/rock...
FYI, I will be at San Diego Comic-Con this week! If you'd like to meet up (coffee, meals, parties, etc.) or if you have a sudden vacancy on a panel and you need an RPG Designer, Doctor Who Audio Adventures Writer, Author, or Voice Actor to fill a seat, please give me a shout! #ComicCon #SanDiego
Saw it. Loved it. Long live the Justice Gang!!!
This Saturday is DCC Day (an international celebration of all things Dungeon Crawl Classics) and I'm doing my part by running a fun, 0-level funnel adventure at my FLGS, @geekyteas.bsky.social! While my game is full, look for me between 11:30 and 4! See you there! goodman-games.com/event/dcc-da...
Playing a little Rocket Summer catch up over on my blog with two brief "reviews" of 1940s-era books I read during week 2 of this reading event. I'm already two books in for this week, and I hope to have at least three or four down by the start of week 4. thewilddigest.blogspot.com/2025/07/rock...
Intimately familiar with those! ;)
We haven't seen it yet (soon!), but, as always, SUPER proud of my wildly talented better half for her work on the film! 🦸🏻♀️ #legacyeffects #superman #fabrication #PracticalEffects
Sad to learn of the passing of James Carter Cathcart. I worked with Jim back when I was a Writer/Producer with Kids' WB! I wrote a LOT of copy for him and directed countless VO sessions. He was extremely talented and someone who inspired me to pursue voice acting. #pokemon #cubix #kidswb #yugioh
Oh, and the avatar I'm currently using? It's a vintage piece of SF art I found online and then I inserted a photo of my OWN face inside the helmet. No "AI" needed. Just a little patience and a decent eye.
I'm about to launch my BookTube channel(!) and in preparing for that, I've been watching other channels for MONTHS. Maybe it's just me, but if you use "AI" for your thumbnails, I simply won't click. I'm there to watch YOU talk about books, not some rubbery, samey "robot" made up of stolen art.
Always nice when one of my creations pops up in support of a great cause! Get your mitts on a copy of my most recent TTRPG, the 2024 ENNIE Award nominated 'Pinebox Middle School' for Savage Worlds in the latest MEGABUNDLE from Humble Bundle: www.humblebundle.com/books/roll-b...
Still a few days away from my actually posting a new video to my YouTube channel (it's coming, I swear), but until then, I just dropped my first review for Rocket Summer Week 1 over on my blog! #booksky thewilddigest.blogspot.com/2025/07/rock...
FYI, I will NOT be at Gen Con this year 😢. I WILL, however, be at the following conventions: STLV: Trek to Vegas 2025 (August 6-10) and ComiCon Erie (September 12-14) (wife will be signing at BOTH), and Gamehole Con (October 16-19) where I'll be running and playing games with y'all! More to come!
