For all you Gord the Rogue fans out there Gary Gygax and I have been tossing out ideas for a third Gord short story. He tossed me an idea for a story, then I batted it back to him as a loose outline, now I await more of his tinkering, to which I will again add mine, and after we do this a few times we will, hopefully, end up with a new story for everybody.
Work on K.R.Bourgoine’s Adventurer: The Card Game is all complete on my end. Which means the game is now in a print ready format. Now, all we have to do is wait for the manufacturer to have some free time to get it on the market. Currently they have a full schedule, so we might not see anything until late summer.
Here is the cover of the box, and Psst!, it’s a secret, but that is actually Macal and Lalliard, the Acquisitioners themselves, on the cover and in the game!
(if you click on it, its not so fuzzy)
We may have found a place to publish the new Gord the Rogue short story that Gary Gygax and I have written.
We will have to wait and see if it comes to pass though. I’ll keep you updated.
Gary Gygax and I have written a new Gord the Rogue short story. We had thought of it finding a home at Dragon Magazine like the previous story, but it seems the WoTC is closing up shop on Dragon.
So the story, titled, A Wizard’s Revenge will have to find a home elsewhere.
The cover of Dragon Magazine issue #344 has been released. This is the cover of the first Dragon Magazine in which I have an article. The best part for me is that it is an story I wrote with Gary Gygax.
The new Gord the Rogue story by Gary Gygax and myself has been named aptly The Return of Gord. According to Dragon’s website the June #344 issue of the magazine has shipped to subscribers! Then on May 24th it will hit the shelves for all the other readers!
Now on top of that there are pretty solid rumors that we might write at least two more stories featuring the infamous rogue. Mentally I have already been plotting some new story ideas that we might be able to use. Unfortunately the soonest I will be able to start working on them is in June some time, which works out well because I will be seeing Gary that month and it will likely give us time to solidify our plans.
One change in these stories we have already decided upon though is that Chert, Gord’s barbarian friend, will definitely make an appearance.
Now its time for some big news. Really BIG! Even huge perhaps. By some miracle I have been able to talk Gary Gygax, the legendary creator of Dungeons and Dragons, to allow me to help him create a new Gord the Rogue story for Dragon Magazine.
It’s a long story as to how all this transpired but the short of it is that we have just completed the first Gord story to be written in many many years. The bad news is that Erik Mona, publisher of Dragon magazine, has opted to hold the story for the special super sized 30th anniversary issue of the magazine in June. While I like the fact that they want to hold the story for a special event, it does mean that the story won’t see light for another six months or so.
More on the name of the story later…
Extreme Tech: Build the Ultimate Gaming PC is now for sale! I am happy to have it completed! You may pick it up at your local bookstore or order HERE from Amazon.com or any other online retailer of books. Its a great resource for anybody who likes games or computers.
After you pick it up feel free to email me with any questions.
Here is a what the cover looks like:
I have completed work on the book, Extreme Tech: How to Build the Ultimate Gaming PC. It feels very good to have that over with. From what I understand since all deadlines were made it should be out in October. Once I get more details I will post them and a link to the book on Amazon.
Already I am in the midst of another large project. It’s easier for me to jump from one to another without a break. I hope to have this one done before the end of July. As it is not actually a novel I might find a way to self-publish it once it is complete. I will keep you updated as things progress.
I can finally talk about the un-disclosed project I have been working on. An editor from John Wiley & Sons, Inc contacted me a short while ago. They are the largest computer book company in the world. Not to mention all of their other areas of focus and brands they own. They contacted me to write a book about computers, called the Extreme Tech: How to Build the Ultimate Gaming PC. I of course accepted and have been writing furiously on it as the book has a Christmas publication date.
You can now buy Adventurer T-shirts, cups, stickers and more at our Café Press Store.
