For All of You Who Love Gaming…
…and you know who you are…here’s a quote I found interesting. It’s from a fun novel I’m reading, and the quoted part is a bit long, but I wanted to be sure to include the whole concept. The first speaker is a game designer: “‘My feeling about it – history goes through different stages. Right?…

Busy Elves
Oh, how I wish I could discuss and describe the various creative projects I’m working on this week.
