A book I edited comes out today! “Heiress” is the accompanying dark fantasy novella to a progressive metal album (also titled “Heiress”) by the band Alyiria. The book was written by J.J.

While grateful for the semi-consistent work, I’ve been itching to sink my teeth into something big, and I’m so glad that’s

In the game, you get a spectral steed (it’s kind of a horned horse that reminds me of Ashitaka’s red elk in Princess Mononoke) named Torrent. But do you know the definition of a “torrent”?
