Editing, So much Editing.

This is a thing, apparently.

Before we get too far into this, you deserve a little snapshot of my day.  I wake up at somewhere around 5:30AM.  I head to the airport around 6:30 to be ready to go fly around 8 (I have an hour commute). I’m in and out of airplanes until around 7PM.  After that, L9OBL and I sit down and edit books until 10 or 11.  Then it’s to bed to turn around and do it again.

Before you think I’m complaining, I want you to know what my editing actually is like.  I make the poor sap sit down and read his book to me while I blare 80s pop music and tell them how much their writing sucks.  Then things get fixed, and magical goodness presents itself from the ashes of the author’s hopes and dreams.

In other words, we haven’t been writing new blog posts because L9OBL has been crying in a corner to the sound of “You Can Call Me Al” by Paul Simon whilst I laugh at him maniacally.

Stay tuned for more updates as the second of the six book series enters the final stages before formatting for print!

On the First Day of Blog Posts, Dead Tree Gave To Me…

…A Patreon Site!

Yes, we have a Patreon now! As many of you may be aware, We attended BABSCon 2016 and had a helluva good time! Part of that time was a panel, during which we asked our attendees if they would be interested in supporting us via Patreon. A Staggering number of people said they would. So, being the slaves to public demand we are, we set one up.

We are setting up some very special perks for our Patreon Subscribers, including art by our staff artists, GMs For Hire, and a special edition version of our Box Set exclusively for those who have more money than sense donate generously.

Keep an eye on this space for updates from the rest of the team; we have a lot of stuff to share with you, and a place for you to throw money at us is almost the least of it!

All Work and No Play Makes Biscuit a Tired Editor

2016-03-03 (2)

Howdy!

First off, we are hard at work completing final review of the manuscript for our first rulebook.  Should be done with that by the end of this week, and then we can start prettifying it (that is, in fact a technical term).

Also, plane tickets and hotel rooms are booked for BABS.  This will be an exciting one for me personally, because it will be the third time I have attended, but the first time not performing at NEIGHeim.  It’ll be a nice change of pace to be a panelist and not a musician!

Anyway, just a quick update on our progress, and we’ll see you at BABSCon!

Dead Tree Studios: The Welcoming.

Hello future Dead Tree Fans!

Let me take this opportunity to welcome you all to our new site, and to say how excited I am that we can finally start sharing the incredible things my colleagues and I have been working on. It’s been a long time coming in our quest for future world domination development of exciting and fun new gaming experiences.

Before I get too much involved on things I am allowed to talk about, Let me share a bit about myself. Here at Dead Tree Studios, I act as Editor-in-Chief of print media, and, once we release projects to print, will serve as distribution manager for our projects. So, in the future, when you are waiting on your front porch with baited breath for one of our books, you know who to send angry emails to!

(But seriously, don’t do that. Unless you want me to just send you a video of me laughing at you.)

Ok, now that the boring introductions are out of the way, now I can talk about interesting stuff.

1) Stay tuned to this blog for updates on Convention attendance. We have panels scheduled at cons coming up, and we will be talking about them as soon as we are allowed to.

2) We are in the process of finishing up final review of our first print project: the core rule books for the Fallout: Equestria PnP. More to be shared at said convention panels.

Those two things are literally all I can talk about, the NDA compels me.

But, that said, we are hoping to have some new things to update you on very soon, so stay tuned! Also, please look us up on Facebook and Twitter. We will be using those outlets to keep folks up to date, as well as share random tidbits, so following them would be in your interest.

So, thanks for listening to me drone on, and stay frosty!
