Happy end of August! We hope you've stayed cool and have created at least a few fun summer memories for 2025.
This month, we wanted to talk about the video games that have inspired us over the years as storytellers. Games are a unique medium...

Cailu did not sleep for the remainder of the evening. Kirti had entrusted him with a journal with a worn leather cover and her hastily scrawled dictations from Magni’s stone, and he pored over the entries again and again until the first rays of ...

Two days later, Jack had a new vest, Skye’s armor was buffed and polished, and Mia was still talking about meeting the frogs when they boarded the turtle to Pomacea. The shell had independent ridges that rose and fell in black and yellow pyramid...

Jack waited at the Achantina for Mia to change while Skye tended to Slinky. He nursed a tankard of dew between both hands, wondering when he should order their meals. This time, it wasn’t for lack of funds that he needed to make the drink last, ...

“Jack, it’s time to wake up,” Mia whispered, then kissed his forehead. “Let’s go home.”

Even with Xariir sitting down, Jack’s head only came up to her waist. He wondered if he should sit or stand before settling on leaning against the nearby wall with his arms crossed over his chest. He still wasn’t sure where to look.

“Thank you.” There was a series of short squeaking noises, and then a gentle blue light illuminated the dark outline before them. As Jack’s eyes adjusted, he found a black widow the size of a golden retriever. It tapped two tiny arms in fron...

I wish there were a positive way for me to say this, but the truth is: we're doing too much and we're struggling to make ends meet.

Jack stuck to the eggs. “Sore. But I’ll live.” He looked at Skye. “I’m not sure what did more damage. You or the crane head.”
