I edit and proofread (and occasionally write) things, mostly games and books.

WRITING WITH STYLE, my book of practical style tips for RPG writers, is now available on Amazon (print and Kindle). If you've read it, please consider posting a review there. https://t.co/elC6iLU5JB

@qntm I ordered a hardcover (of this wonderful book!) from Amazon on Sept. 23, and a note in the book says it was printed Sept. 24. So mine at least was POD.

@seankreynolds @ColinMcComb @MonteJCook I'm not on Twitter much anymore, but here's my favorite Gen Con flashback photo: TSR editor Anne Brown, @ColinMcComb, @seankreynolds, and me. My favorite comment someone made was that we three guys look like a creature advancement table.

@jonnywaistcoat My favorite is Godzilla vs. Mechagodzilla. How can you not love the idea of a giant robot Godzilla? May not be an objectively great movie, but it’s a lot of fun.

@MattClick SO much jargon on that job . . . !

@TonyDiTerlizzi @robhrr @ColinMcComb @MonteJCook In that GenCon group photo, we look like a band where Tony is the cool frontman and we're his backup singers.

@TonyDiTerlizzi It's so weird that Planescape has gotten old while we've stayed exactly the same age.

@GavinEtc for a stormtrooper

@GavinEtc Sorry to hear you were part of the layoffs. The video game biz, she is a cruel mistress.

@seankreynolds @_CritCat_ @CypherUnlimited <Scotty voice> I'm givin' it all she's got, Captain!

[Ray Vallese @RayVallese]

@lucentile Thanks! That was the intention. We had other characters and side things too that had to be cut for space. And of course we had to give the Nameless One a name for the book. Not everyone liked that. 😀

[Ray Vallese @RayVallese]

@lucentile It . . . worked out as well as possible, which is to say, not very well. People expected the book to be a true novelization of the game and were mad when it wasn't. I understand that.

[Ray Vallese @RayVallese]

@lucentile Also, I was recently interviewed (along with the great Monte Cook and Colin McComb) about all things Planescape, including this book. You can check that out here: https://t.co/LTs4pLKj2P. The site also has extensive reviews of EVERY Planescape product!

@lucentile Not sure about the inventor. Maybe Dak'kon invented a juicer on the side and sells it in late-night infomercials. >>

@MattClick I should point out that I was like 8 when I saw the last of the goofy suit movies in the theater. I don't QUITE need a walker yet!

Dog Bus

In Alaska, a married couple is engaged in dog walking and supervision of them. To do this, they even purchased a bus to conveniently and safely pick up pets, like children to school. Dogs spend all day together, have fun, eat, and then they are transported to the houses

@ColinMcComb @TonyDiTerlizzi @Wizards_DnD @BrennanLM We said there were three principles of the multiverse, but there are actually four:
1. Rule of Three
2. Unity of Rings
3. Center of All
4. SIGIL LIKE WIGGLE
