New Blog: Austen's Regency Fantasy and Hobbyism

button_kin_header_CAPS.png

Afternoon, all! I’ve written so much today that I actually find myself out of words. How are you doing? I hope you’re well?

Why so terse? Well, I just finished a new blog post. It’s a bit of a ramble intended to answer the question: what is The Custom of the Sea and where did the idea originate? It covers Austen, Bridgerton, class consciousness and how “hobbyism” shapes the games I choose to make. I hope you find it interesting.

If you’re lucky enough to be in the North West of the UK this weekend consider coming on down the Manchester Geek Fayre at Sascha’s Hotel on Saturday. I’ll be there. Selling games, as I do. I have a fancy new neon sign I’m excited to show off!

Till next time, stay hydrated.
