    The Big Bad Console Thread - Sway your Station with an Xboner !

    Was watching a Giant Bomb video a few days back about them messing around with the Xbox One at an event that specifically mentioned DR3 being finished and out the door, ready to go, so yeah...yay next gen!

    The King Henry Tapes (By Me!)

    So I finished the Welf novella as well (technically a novelette at 14k but whatever). I'm tempted to work on "Rockets" a little bit to see if this new found surge of creativity extends beyond King Henry's world. This is what happens when a person gives up video games...

    The King Henry Tapes (By Me!)

    If anyone wants to beta read/typo hunt the Griefing novella, send me a message or email like last time. It's about 20k words at the moment (4 chapters worth), so not as big of a commitment as a novel. Will probably be a couple weeks until it's ready for you guys. As far as FM4, I've already...

    So is it time for Neil Gaiman to come out and give a "Valve is not your bitch" speech yet?

    The King Henry Tapes (By Me!)

    Yeah, I'm sure you guys will read the novella, love it, and look at me like I'm insane. And yes, some of the stories might work as novellas if I ever get the urge. No promises on them though, as seen by the long-promised Welf novella I keep pushing to the side. Something about writing...

    Scott Lynch (Gentlemen Bastards)

    4/5th of the way through it...it has major "one story is superior" problems when it comes to the timelines (the biggest potential problem with using that structure, don't I well know it). I think if it was a tighter and shorter book it wouldn't be as bad but when it's 50 pages of teenagers...

    Thanks for the encouragement, Altrias. Small update: 7 chapters into FM4 and gaining steam, let's hope the holidays don't holiday.

    Some worthwhile series

    Complete opposite. Main villains are evil, magic-destroying, religious commies. There's also minor villains in one book initialed BC and HC (Bill and Hillary Clinton) brought down by a sexually transmitted disease due to infidelity and another book where Richard massacres a bunch of pacifists...

    The King Henry Tapes (By Me!)

    You know, the only good thing about having just a small fanbase so far is that King Henry/T-Bone slash fanfic isn't a thing yet.

    Total War series

    Biggest problem I had with Shogun 2, Empire, and Napoleon was unit and faction variety. Everything felt too similar. Will be happy to return to legions vs elephants vs chariots vs phalanxes vs horse archers.

    The King Henry Tapes (By Me!)

    Since Sunday I've given away over 10,000 copies of Fanged Lady thanks to a Bookbub promotion. If you guys don't know what it is, it's a free/bargain ebook daily mailing list set up to the genres you chose. Majority of it is Indie stuff, but Big 6 authors are starting to use it more and more as...

    He has one of the most experienced editors in genre publishing, Betsy Wollheim. Her parents founded DAW, which she now owns, and she's been doing this for over 30 years. She also won a Hugo for editing the book you're talking about. Here's Rothfuss about how she saved his career and us from...

    The King Henry Tapes (By Me!)

    I'm continually amazed at the amount of people that bring that scene up before everything else that happened in the book. Captain Suave, doesn't really matter.

    All Things Joe Abercrombie

    YA sells crazy well. Of course the audience growth isn't really from young adults (12-18 year olds) so much as 25-44 year old women who like to read about teenagers. Be interesting to see how Abercrombie plays towards that crowd.

    Heh. Aaron Sorkin is writing another Steve Jobs movie as well. So Dumar should be double pissed off.

    Emma Watson's Queen of the Tearing

    Yeah, no elves in GOT... Something similar to this happened with Justin Cronin's The Passage. He got a seven figure publishing deal for the trilogy and then got a movie development deal before the first book was even done for almost 2 million. Still no movie.

    Emma Watson's Queen of the Tearing

    Blurb for the book I guess "Game of Thrones" has finally overtaken "Lord of the Rings" as the go-to Fantasy world reference now.

    Man of Steel

    Start of the review Tuco quoted: I fully admit the movie could turn into nothing but big effects without enough character to support the moments, but the complaints over it not being "traditional" Superman have been pretty laughable.

    Man of Steel

    Snippets from the present 3 rotten reviews: --- ---- ---- ---- Poor us, a movie with Superman not being stale, not using what every movie has used before, with Superman actually fighting with an effects budget behind him, I'm sure we'll all just hate this...

    Book 3 is next on my TBR list. Much love for the series, one of my favorites to pop up in the last couple years.
