:: ::

In this one we cover the following thingamajigs:




  • Baldur talks about what it feels like to anticipate that the mainstream will coincide with your interests but then watching it go into a different direction. Three different directions, to be specific.

  • Craig Mod’s article. (And the coda he posted on his website, which you should also read.)

  • Fahrenheit Press’s audience engagement.

  • Xcode playgrounds.

  • Involving the reader. Breaking out of the insular.

  • Any involvement of the reader is experimental.

  • Singing the praises of Sam Missingham.

  • The value of making deliberate mistakes. Mistakes, not failure.

  • Singing the praises of Inkle Studios.

  • The big risk that publishers are taking.



May contain swearing.
