The Call of Cthulhu Classic Kickstarter.
Specifically, the forty year anniversary reprinting of the original boxed edition of the Call Of Cthulhu RPG. This is old-school stuff, friends: Chaosium scanned near-mint versions of the originals, cleaned them up, added little extras, and now here it is. I should also note that I checked, and Chaosium is planning to print this in Europe: i.e., not via slave labor. We all remember the wretched Sassoon Files affair, I’m sure…
“Pickman’s Model: A Romance is currently #31 in 30-Minute Science Fiction & Fantasy Short Reads!
I have no idea if that’s meaningful, but it’s not horrible, right? Hey, it would be awesome if it hit #1, though…

BEHOLD! The MORGAN BAROD cover.
I am well-pleased with it.

Artwork’s from a buddy of mine in the SCA, and I think it came out right nice. MORGAN BAROD is still on schedule for coming out this summer, by the way. Keep watching the skies!
The KING IN YELLOW RPG Bundle of Holding.
Having backed the KING IN YELLOW RPG Kickstarter I can tell you that the stuff that they’re offering in the Bundle of Holding‘s worth it. Particularly Robin Laws’ THE MISSING AND THE LOST: it’s just a good book in its own right. He should be selling it more widely — in fact, why am I not telling him that?

Snippet the Last, WE LIKE TO TALK ABOUT THE PLACE.
Damn thing got harder to write, the farther along I got. How sharper than a serpent’s tooth is an ungrateful short story.
