Last year was a little bit of a lull for me, writing-wise, as I concentrated on laying the groundwork for new projects and personal matters. But, I vowed to hit the ground running in 2025, and I like to think I have done that.
So far, I have done the following:
- Started a new job as Narrative Director at Romero Games, and I am having a blast doing so.
- Written the bulk of the manuscript for The Video Game Writer’s Guide To Surviving an Industry That Hates You, and done edits and final proofs.
- Finalized the concept and wrote the script for my first graphic novel, a 124 page horror comic for the French publisher Delcourt, done in conjunction with the legendary Matz.
- Finalized the contents of a new short story collection, including an all-new Reb Palache story.
- Wrote 7 short stories so far and counting.
- Managed to pump out 2 essays a week on game narrative and writing over at LinkedIn
- Laid the groundwork for a few more upcoming projects.
- Promised to kill at least one person horribly in a story or novel for charity.
I’m now gearing up for starting another novel, and I have a few more stories in progress I need to complete. And there will be at least two big announcements coming up before the end of the year.
No rest for the wicked, or their typing fingers.
