I'm hipdeep in working on a few things right now, but the next thing to drop will be QT2:i8 and will definitely get people talking (as if the end of 2:40 wasn't already doing that). It's going to do a bunch of fun things, but I don't think I'll be able to get it done today, since I'm heading out to a theater in ...

It's mostly done, and it's bigger than normal, but it's also got a lot going on in terms of continuity and world building, so I'm having the writer's group take a look at it overnight, do an edit pass and then when I get up tomorrow, I'll make the changes and put a cleaned up version to the Patr...

I know it's my own brain playing tricks and self-doubt on me, but I'm just like every other creative and I'm not immune to it - that sense of Imposter Syndrome, that you're actually bad at your craft, and you've somehow just been fooling everyone the whole time.

The second answer first - I'm fine. Saturday morning, I had to drop off my flatmate at the airport as he was heading out on vacation with his family. At 6 a.m. Now, maybe nobody knows this about me (although I'm sure member of my Discord know) but I'm a night owl. I...
