Yesterday was a double-podcast-drop-day. I show up on the Fictitious podcast and Tim Clare’s Death of 1000 Cuts, talking about THE GUTTER PRAYER. In both cases, though, I also spent a lot of time talking about writing for games, improvised stories, and what insights can be applied from one form of creative writing to another.
A friend semi-jokingly asked me when I was going to transition out of games to focus on fiction full-time. I don’t think I ever will. Gaming is a playground, writing a novel is more like engineering, but you can use lego bricks to prototype anything.
