Hey, Hardcore kids! I'm looking to talk to as many of you as possible! I've been working on a creative project that’s my love letter to the scene and I really want to hear from people about why hardcore matters and what you’d wanna see represented in stories. DM me if you're interested in chatting!
Not what I usually write about, but after yesterday, I wanted to speak out and encourage my friends now at risk in “the land of the free.”
I feel so bad for my American friends who have to face this head on. At the same time, fuck all y’all who voted that fascist criminal back in.
Aaaaand the nightmare is set to repeat…

For all my new subscribers- i released part 1 of my 4 part series on the horror genre last week for the spooky season! Part two will be out soon, so make sure you’re up to date!

Really trying to push that subscriber count so we can build an audience for our upcoming comic series and TTRPG! Please consider subscribing!
Thanks!
I’ve a question for the community! Does anyone know of any resources available regarding how Telltale Games build their narratives from start to finish? Clearly they are branching narratives, but I’d love to read about the developer’s actual process!
It’s that time of the week again. The next chapter from my book is now available for free on my substack!
Recently, I made the decision to serialise my book on Narrative Design for free. A new chapter every week. What I didn’t expect, was that some of you would enjoy the prologue so much that you bought the book anyway! So it’s official - can’t wait and wanna support me? You can buy it here!
Thanks! I hope you enjoy!
