Life After Trollhalla

Sad that's it's gone - I miss it more than I expected. But life goes on and the Trollbridge is taking up the slack. A good place to shelter from the storm and hang out.

I have just sent out a batch of  'Dig Deep and Prosper' free colour maps by Stan and have been pleased by the number of requests.



I have just finished 'The Lion and the Unicorn", a solo centred on Curse Magic (curses, jinxes and hexes) following the pattern of the Labours of Herakles and Deathtrap Equaliser (not a bad pair for inspiration, leaving me just with the perspiration part of genius!).

I am thinking about embarking on a new solo based on the Spirit Mastery spell (formerly Yassa Massa in the non-pc days). It would be based in Caerthaeph't, the city of the 'Joyride' solo, and feature the settings from that adventure).

I have also written a 10,000 word sci-fi story ("The Republican Space Hero") and been reading for Librivox - the part of Israel ands in Treasure Island and 2 sci-fi stories from Astounding Stories from 1931.

The city of Qadouche has been the setting for the 2 ongoing games I've been running this summer, one involving rescue, the other a life of crime. I'm taking part in 2 email games, one run by Doug Mitten set in Khazan, the other based on Larry di Tillio's 'Isle of Darksmoke' (the former long-running and very profitable, the latter just started) and I shall be starting another this week with a guy in Jakarta who asked for 'Dig Deep' map.

Not an inactive summer... and not yet "Missing Inaction" (that was my favourite ever solo to write).

Have a humdinger of a 2016!
