A Productive Weekend

The funny thing about long weekends is that there is never enough time to do all the nothing you want to do.  But as I struggle to stave off imminent heart-failure caused by gorging to excess on honey-glazed ham and my wife's sublime cheese and onion gallete, I must admit that while I didn't get around to the relaxing inactivity that I long for, I did get quite a few things done that have been hanging over my head lately.

  • I got my taxes done - and with days to spare!
  • I submitted my latest short story for inevitable rejection and, most importantly,
  • I finished the draft files for Megadungeon! a new board game by Hopeful Monster
Megadungeon! is the first of a series of old school micro games that Shane and I hope to produce, and is a game of dungeon exploration for the whole family inspired by my five year old daughter's love of the old TSR boardgame, Dungeon!  You can follow the link to the Hopeful Monster site for more details.

    Very productive indeed. :)

    What market did you submit your short story to, if I may ask?

    Gee, that is brilliant, making a Dungeon! style game. And you chose the perfect name for it.

    @Trey: Chizine, probably my favourite publisher of dark fiction - none of it mine :)

    @Anonymous: Thanks! Shane Mangus is the creative genius behind the name.

    Taxes? D'oh!

    Every year I get a refund, but for some reason I file my taxes late anyway.
