Want to Work for Adamant Entertainment?

I sent this announcement out to various gaming news sites and such earlier in the week, but it just occurred to me that a bunch of folks that I’d love to work with read my journal as well, so…..

Adamant Entertainment has finally ramped up to a full-time thing for me, and as such, I’m in the market for freelance writers. I’m especially looking for folks to work on our Thrilling Tales, Buccaneers & Bokor and D20 MasterKit lines….but if you’re a writer and have an idea for a new line, go ahead and talk to me about it…that’s what we did with Malcolm Sheppard and the Terminal Identity line of cyberpunk-genre products that he pitched to us.

Anyway–our submission guidelines are here. Take a look, and drop me a line.

(LJ-only post, since my blogspot journal has no user pics)

Designed and uploaded a new user picture, and I wanted to show it off. The character is original, and the pic digitally created by Yours Truly.

It’s one of the “signature characters” from my Thrilling Tales game line.

Yesterday, I read that Kelly Freas died on Sunday. For those who don’t know him, he was a brilliant SF artist. Here’s one of his most famous creations:

Queen used that pulp cover for the art for one of their albums, which he went ahead and re-painted for them. He was also one of the artists responsible for Mad Magazine’s Alfred E Newman.

Today, I read that Will Eisner passed away. I’m a huge Eisner fan–his textbook on the comic-book genre, Comics and Sequential Art was a major part of my education. He is, of course, best known for his creation of The Spirit:

But his graphic novels, such as A Contract With God were amazing as well–thought-provoking stuff which truly elevated the “comic book” into the realm of literature.

Both men, and their talent, will be missed.
