The voting for the final round of the Origins Awards opened on Monday. Three items I worked on are on the ballot, so if you’re a member of the Academy, I’d appreciate your vote. Redhurst Academy of Magic is up for Best Roleplaying Game Supplement and Best Graphic Design of a Book, and “The Price of Freedom” is up for …
Eberron Novel Rolling Along
I’m pounding away at the first in my trilogy of novels for the spanking-new Eberron setting for Dungeons & Dragons, from Wizards of the Coast. It won’t see stores until early 2005, but it’s due Any Day Now. I’m trying to finish it before I head out for the BookExpo America show on June 5. While there, I’ll be in …
Upcoming Appearances
The summer convention season is almost upon us. I’m planning to be at a number of the big shows this summer, so I just created an Upcoming Appearances page to chart where I’ll be and when. If you’ll be around for any of these, be sure to stop by wherever I am and say hi. I also updated my Current …
BEA Bound
I’ll be in the fine city of Chicago over the weekend of June 4–6 for BookExpo America, the largest trade show for English-reading bibliophiles on the planet. I’ll be in the Wizards of the Coast booth, signing advanced reading copies of Secret of the Spiritkeeper, the first in the new Knights of the Silver Dragon series of young adult fantasy …
Games Quarterly Magazine on the Horizon
On Friday, I got another surprise in the mail: the first issue of Games Quarterly Magazine. This is a brand-new general games magazine from Matthews-Simmons Marketing, the same people who bring you the game-industry bible Games Quarterly Catalog. I wrote an article about Fluxx (a real game designer’s card game) in it, which is why the printer drop-shipped me a …

The Origins Awards nominations were just released. I’m happy to say that two pieces I worked on picked up a total of three nods. Many thanks to those members of the Academy who voted to recognize them. Redhurst Academy of Magic garnered nominations for Best Roleplaying Supplement and Best Graphic Design in Book Format. Also “The Price of Freedom” got …
Errors Creep In
I just got a prototype of the Dracula’s Revenge boardgame in. A few details need fixing, but that’s why you have a prototype made before you go to press. Otherwise, you end up with several thousand error-riddled copies of the game. Still, it always seems like the first thing I find when I pick up the first copy of a …
CCG In the Works
Right after I cut down to part-time at Human Head Studios, I started beating the bushes for work hard. Among other things, I flushed out a collectable card game design gig. It’s been a couple years since I’ve worked on one of these babies, but it’s just as much fun as I remember. I can’t say any more about it …
Flaming Interview Up
The fine folks at FlamesRising.com just posted a recent interview with me. You can find it
FullMoonEnt.com No More
Those of you who have my old business cards or who have been following my career for a while might have stopped by my old website at www.fullmoonent.com. It was my first shot at designing a website for myself, and it was all right for the time. However, I had to update everything by hand, which meant it didn’t happen …
