I posted a few weeks ago to say that we (James Wallis of Magnum Opus Press, my publisher, EN World, and I) were going to be publishing the whole of Game Night on the web, in twenty-six weekly instalments.
Well as of about 11:30 am today, it’s up:

If you haven’t yet read Game Night, then please [...]

On Monday, the first free weekly instalment of Game Night will be published on ENWorld, and as I announced a couple of days ago, I’m going to be doing a blog tour to publicise this event.
Well as of now, I currently have six bloggers/sites signed up to host a stop on the tour. (And while [...]

Hi all,
It’s now less than a week to go to the launch of the free weekly serialisation of Game Night on EN World and the launch of the ebook version of Game Night (which will be in PDF initially with other formats to follow later).
(Details of the free weekly serialisation and the ebook release).
Obviously, I’ll [...]

There used to be a simple principle when it came to getting custom designed T-Shirts printed. They would either be fairly cheap and very crap (screen printed); more expensive, but still fairly crap (transfer sheet); or very expensive and still not very good (embroidered).
Most people ended up with transfer printed white t-shirts, and since I [...]

Hi all,
It’s coming up to a couple of years since Game Night was published, so now seems the right time to do something different. Something big. Something that will get it out there to all the people who not only haven’t yet read it, but haven’t yet even heard of it.
We’re doing this. I’m pretty [...]

Marie Phillips (@mpphillips), author of Gods Behaving Badly, tweeted the following this morning:
Preparing my first ever day of Creative Writing teaching for teens for First Story http://bit.ly/aCq9A Any advice welcome!
Well I figured I’d bash my advice out, random and uninformed as it is, as a blog post, and then tweet that. So here it is!

Back at the start of the year, I released in PDF form a free novella-length prequel to my novel Game Night. The 30,000 word novella, Saving Stone, told the tale of an earlier adventure by Game Night’s roleplaying gods and their poor, confused mortal “characters”. What are Saving Stone (and Game Night) about? Well here’s [...]

One of the things I find most interesting about reading reviews of stuff I’ve written (I originally wrote that as “reviews of my works” but realised I was pushing the bullshit needle right into the red zone marked “deeply pretentious”) is the degree to which the score, assuming there is one, can often seem to [...]

One of the interesting aspects of the English language is that it is defined not by experts, but by its users. Ultimately, there is no right way or wrong way to speak English; instead there is simply the way it is spoken. The Oxford English Dictionary is usually regarded as the definitive authority on the [...]

Last night I went to the London Writers Club to hear a talk by Marie Phillips, author of Gods Behaving Badly. (You may remember that I mentioned this event last week).
It was really good. She gave a lot of good advice, too much to mention, so I’ll just mention two things that really struck me.
