Current Projects

So, what am I working on right now?

Some of it, obviously, I can’t disclose at the moment (for various reasons) — but briefly, here’s a look at what’s occupying my days right now:

• Far West: The big transmedia project that I’ve been cooking for four years is finally up and running. The website, featuring fiction vignettes and more, is a big part of what I’m doing, as is the Adventure Game — the Kickstarter crowdfunding of which was a massive success, garnering nearly 10x our target goal. The fiction line launched in January 2012, starting with Tales of the Far West, a short story anthology for which I was editor (and contributed a story to as well). Future fiction releases will follow, as well as additional efforts ranging from audio dramas to a webseries.
• ICONS TEAM-UP: The next supplement for the ICONS Superhero roleplaying game — due in March. A look at the cover can be found here. The supplement is currently available for pre-order.
• Tales of New Crobuzon: A roleplaying game based upon the Bas-Lag books of China Miéville. Coming in 2012 (approvals pending, of course).
• Buckaroo Banzai: Read the press release. On schedule for a release in Spring/Summer 2012, and currently available for pre-order.
• ePublishing 101: a second, greatly-expanded edition of the book blog series of the same name. A how-to manual for making a living as a independent creative professional, without going through the traditional gatekeepers.
• “Exit Visa”: A short story which will be appearing in the anthology Have Blaster, Will Travel, set in Galileo Games’ Bulldogs! sci-fi RPG universe.
• Various Unannounced Fiction Projects: Currently in various stages of development on a half-dozen or more fiction efforts. More information on these as they are officially announced.

Wow. When you lay it all out like that, I look really damned busy.
