On the Nature of Roller Coasters

Hey again. This is Alesia, checking in with a little progress report. Here’s the tl;dr version: We’re still here, alive, kicking, swinging for the fences. That’s huge. We’ve had to restructure MetPub to get through this interregnum. Our goals as publishers are changing, and the company needs to change to reflect them. More on this as we actually get “nails […]

We’re Back

As you likely know, if you’ve been by here at all in 2016, we’ve been MIA. That’s because we’ve had to restructure everything here in order to keep functioning at all – gotta have money here in this western world – and having to go outside for income means exactly what you know it means, if you’ve been around or […]

The Final Hours

Dead Man’s Trigger is still holding its own at #2 in Literature & Fiction > Action & Adventure > Fantasy – but we’d sure like to see it go back to #1 on the last day of its KDP Select promotion.   Have you read the reviews? 4.8 stars overall!   “The overall tension and speed of events cranked up […]

Regreetings!

From Alesia: Hello, everyone! I’m sitting in a vacation rental with my bestie of 23 years, who is also a fantasy fiction writer and a role playing gamer. We’re in southern Oregon, on the Rogue River, enjoying our yearly retreat from our usual lives, wherein we stitch (avid counted cross-stitchers, both of us), talk, consume vast quantities of coffee, wine, […]

In Case We Missed It

You read that right. We lost our office internet connection and were offline for most of last week. Michael is our Guru of All the Internet Things, and he eventually wrangled the configuration files back into submission. Once again, we have official access to cute cat videos and the freshest news on the latest in the culture wars as potent […]

LIVE Tonight on Rolecasters!

Michael and I are going to be LIVE on Rolecasters starting at 9pm EST, 6 pm Pacific, talkiing about Raven’s Tears, the world of Menelon, the nexus of fantasy RPGs and fiction, and whatever else they’ll let us get away with. We’ve never done a PG-rated live-stream before, I’m NSFW at the best of times, and it’s all going down […]

Low Burn Thursday

How hot does your fire burn? Mine is burning kind of low today, I must confess it. I’d wanted to join in on the #rpgchat discussion on Twitter earlier, but it’s difficult to shake free of all the preparatory chopping that has to be done. Not complaining  – I just need to do better at organizing my Thursdays. We’re taking […]
