Love this from @starkholborn.bsky.social ’s talk about Shadow of Doubt - about making sure you‘re putting story absolutely *everywhere*

Amazingly, the books I ordered far too late for Adventure X have been printed in time - so if you want a copy of the Heaven's Vault novels, we'll be selling them at our desk!

Not all of these copies though, as I can't carry this many.

There is a philosophical theory that the big bang will be followed by a big crunch - a gathering up of the universe, under gravity, that will result in another big bang. Together, this big-bang-big-crunch -- or "big brunch", if you will -- must repeat endlessly, with variations occurring each time

bleak. $150/hr to feed a shredder. on the plus side, i really do think stochastic modelling will never produce a good story, ever, no matter how many good stories you throw at it, so if you need the money you should take it. But also -- make sure you put the word aubergine in every story. Teach that

Obvs we get a lot of key beggars running a studio but i just got I think my favourite ever. Tell me that you don’t care why don’t you

fine but annoyingly I think it needs to be in English alphabetic characters. I can google translate, if the following is acceptable?

On the one hand, all art is educated plagiarism. On the other hand, the current WIP is currently, er, VR5 meets Tennyson's The Lady of Shalott

“Don’t buy either unless you liked the first one” - but new stories? Definitely don’t matter
