Making of Gallidon, Part 1 – The Concept

Runes and Rice I committed to what became Runes of Gallidon while finishing a platter of bimimbap at a Seoul Brothers restaurant in April of 2008. I was having dinner with two friends, Tony Graham and Andy Underwood, and after a few weeks of evaluating our collective skill sets, I decided that our startup idea […]

The Writer’s Guide – a CC licensed report from Australia

This report was actually released last month (and I found it on the Creative Commons – Through the Looking Glass blog) , but I thought it was worthy of a mention and permanent tagging here. The Writer’s Guide to Making a Digital Living: Choose Your own Adventure was written by Therese Fingleton, Christy Dena, and […]

Cool new ARF* from Continuous Labs

A few months ago I learned about a new Alternate Reality Fiction world being started by Continuous Labs. I already knew about ARG’s, but ARF was a new one for me.

Math, Magic, and Storytelling Shell Games

A writer walks into a doctor’s office. “You gotta help me, doc. I keep hearing about everyone making money from self-publishing, and everywhere I go, someone’s trying to sell me their book.” “I see,” the doctor says, nodding. “So what seems to be the problem?” “Well, I figure if everyone’s writing a book, I should […]

Shared Story Worlds

A History and Future of Collaborative Storytelling

This is my (un)scientific, (non-)comprehensive, and (not at all) objective overview of the rise of collaborative storytelling: how we (more or less) got here, and where we may (kinda sorta) be heading. No particular axe to grind or agenda to sell, just my observations after watching this space for a few years. Buckle up, this […]
