UM EXCUSE ME!? LUCIEN/MOLLY BACKSTORY? LORE DROP? Yeah I can get behind that. No, are you KIDDING ME? This is awesome! Much like the KITH AND KIN Vox Machina book before it, this Mighty Nein story will be a prequel to the on stream content of campaign 2. Unlike the Twins’ story though, this […]
Being a reader and a writer is hard work sometimes. I often wish that my next book was already written and I could just read it, but tragically, procrastination does not result in finished work. How many of you have struggled with wanting to read your story more than wanting to write it? As a […]
I’ve posted before about places for reviewers to get review copies for free but with the recent discussion of piracy it was brought up that there are few of the opportunities for readers. This is not wholly true. They are difficult to find to be sure, and there are plenty of low cost options […]
