Hey, We Got A Freebie!
Special Purpose is your basic story about a nine-year-old girl living with her single dad in a blasted, postapocalyptic hellscape, but it’s OK.

I have designed games and written novels, but only recently (in The Sleep of Reason) did I get an opportunity to script some sequential narrative, also colloquially known as a ‘comic’. Thanks to the miracle of crowdfunding, I’ve done it again.
I wrote a film noir game called A Dirty World, and Caleb Stokes (the brains and the looks behind Hebanon Games) went and wrote The Dangers of Fraternization, a scenario for it set in partition-era Berlin.
First and foremost, if you’re unfamiliar with Mask of the Other, it’s a Lovecraftian science-horror novel about the wreckage of Saddam Hussein’s occult weapons program, private military companies, and what armies do with enemies they can’t kill.
The early adopters have gotten their copies, and their responses have been gratifyingly positive. If you have any interest in superheroes, supervillains, or smartass jailbirds trapped in a crazy world they never made, this could be the book for you.
This was a long time time coming and, going by the reviews, worth the wait. BETTER ANGELS is my new supervillain RPG, out now courtesy of ARC DREAM publishing
If you like rockets, time travel, cheap laughs or all of the above you can buy Dinosaurs… in Spaaace! from IPR, with the PDF bundled free if that sort of thing appeals to you.
If you have gotten sick of waiting on my intermittent updates here, I don’t blame you one bit. If you want to hear about my projects and updates via email, send me your address and I’ll put you on a notification list.
If you don’t know the tragic story of EVERWAY, sit a spell and grab a hankie.
This is the first and, to date, only full RPG with me as the primary author… though I’m hesitant to really call this ‘my creation’. I wrote all the words, except for the index of events in the back, but it’s Stan Sakai’s world and I just play there.
