I’ve been playing role-playing games since I was twelve, and running them for almost as long. There’s something amazing about sharing a story that you tell with your friends. I love the fact that D&D is seeing a resurgence, and that more people are returning to the hobby or picking it up for the first

When people of a certain age (cough)young(cough) think about Disney films, they think of the animation. And that’s fair. It was what built the famous House of Mouse, after all. And while they never completely stopped making live-action films, their output did have a few fallow periods. But in the years before Lucas and Spielberg

After the release of Cobalt City: RESISTANCE and a few conversations with regular readers of the Cobalt books, I got thinking about common themes in the series. My relationship with themes is kind of complicated. I don’t know how other authors work, but for the most part the themes in my books are things that

Cobalt City: RESISTANCE comes out in a few days, and I literally could not be happier to share this book with you all. It was a long process with a hard deadline to get this book ready in time for the mid-term elections, but we made it. Here we are, with the book out roughly

There is this common tune, that great art (and great art movements) comes from periods of strife and political unrest. While it’s most famously seen in music, take rap or punk as examples, pushing back against oppression is also a major influence on the British comic book scene in the 80’s. The panacea we’ve been

First of all, how DARE you! Second, I say that with love. Because as much as I wish I’d created Ruby Killingsworth, I never could have pulled this novel off with such joyful aplomb. See, there’s been a number of stories told in Cobalt City over the years, but never anything like Rites & Desires,

As regular readers know, I’ve been working on a new Cobalt City novel for over a year now. As is typical for me, progress is not always smooth and constant. I had a big block from some time in October until just a week ago where I’m pretty sure I didn’t finish a single chapter.

This week’s interview brings us writer Clarion West graduate, spec fiction author, and game writer Arinn Dembo. She’s been a writing pro for quite a while, but even before she got her first big sale (if memory serves, an amazing and high profile review of a favorite book by a favorite author), she’s been a

This week’s interview brings us to SWFA member & author, UI writer, tech writer, and occasional leather crafter Victoria “Torrey” Podmajersky. A constant source of insight into her chosen areas of interest, she is responsible for one of my favorite thoughts on Star Wars: The Last Jedi–that the Resistance could have really benefited from a

Welcome to the inaugural Year of Creators interview! We’re kicking things off with the multi-talented and multi-dimensional Dawn Vogel. It’s not enough that she’s one of the editorial geniuses behind Mad Scientist Journal as well as a frequent vocalist in pop-up cover bands around Seattle. She’s also a sought-after crochet crafter and author. Her most
