Shameless Self Promotion Time!
Yep, it’s that time yet again – but if I don’t shout about my writing work, who will? Today I wanted to draw your attention to the new work I’ve […]
More Writing…Elsewhere!

Creating Abyssal Albion: An Interview with Thomas J. Campbell
“A lot of people say ‘screenwriters make comics because they can’t make films’ – but that’s not the case. I always wanted to write comics,” Thomas J. Campbell, the writer […]
Rare Games: New Articles Now Live!
It’s rare that I have the confidence to do something like this – I find it can quite often come across as shameless, sometimes arrogant, self-promotion – but I’ve done […]
Comic Book Review: Casual Fling #1
Though to outsiders it may seem as if Jennifer Ryan has the perfect life, the stress of trying to balance a demanding career with being present for her husband and […]
Feature: Alone Among the Stars – Playthrough
