Megatokyo Comics and News

Just blasting out into the ether that Transcendent - Book 1: The Girl is the Tomb is live, available for kindle, paperback, and a brand new hardcover option for you dead tree enthusiasts. It's... been a ride, to say the least. When I started this manuscript, as a visual prompt from Fred, it had morphed and shifted its tone so many times that it quite literally shares nothing with the initial short…

Rant [1106] "Clearing of the Air"

(note: this was actually a twitter thread that i wrote this morning... rather than copy paste and chunk this thing out to the other services... duh, post it as a rant and link it :) I've been hesitant to post anything like this, so i'll keep it vague.

Rant [1102] "So much for Microblogging..."

Well, after 15 years of using this new fangled "Twitter" thing for microblogging, that's enough of that. Back to normal ranting. (For the record, this is not a rant about twitter, it's about me and the internet over the last thirty... years... oh geeze, it's been that long?) When Twitter was just a new thing, i kinda liked the idea of using it for quick micro blogging (since i was such a slacker…
