Saying Goodbye to X and General Update

I have had a Twitter account since 2009. I am unsure if it was ever a good fit for me, but I enjoyed it all the same and shared my work there. For numerous reasons, I deactivated my account there. Their embrace of A/I and its forced rollout later this month was the deal breaker for me. I had planned to do this right after IX, but things have been busy. You can find me in all the other spots, as my links are here on the blog in a sidebar, on my website, and over on Facebook. I am trying to do more on Bluesky as people are flooding in.

Goodbye...

 

One more thing, you might see a lot less of me the rest of the year and going into next. I have taken on some exciting assignments, and that will keep me busy. This also means I will be slowed in my progress on the Grand Bazaar. Fear naught; I will return to it right away and still want to stick to as many of my deadlines as possible to have the next book completed sooner rather than later. I think that is about it for now.

That's all for another exciting week on the blog. See you back here next week. Until then...

A preview of things to come!

We interrupt this Thursday with a special blog post...

This never happens, but I have a chance to show you what I am working on RIGHT NOW for an upcoming article of Dragon Magazine!  Looks like the folks over at WotC were so happy with my sketch of a Neogi that Steve Winter (Producer of Dragon and Dungeon online, writer, game designer, and owlbear wrangler) tweeted the drawing yesterday. Which means I can now share it with you! The Neogi is riding an UMBER HULK!

Having a piece approved is always nice... and the goal of every painting, but having production share the drawing of the not yet completed painting is a compliment on another level altogether. Thanks to Steve and Kate, really happy to hear that you all are digging this piece! No pressure on me now to make sure I do a really good job on the painting!

There will be more on this in the fullness of time... later in the year.

That's all for a unexpected Thursday blog post, see you back here tomorrow for some more RAWRS! Until then...
