Aeryn’s Archives: Tomb of the Blind God
I’m in a reflective mood, so let’s look back at my twenty-plus-year writing career and talk about one of my favorite projects. This is another D&D adventure, and while I wrote a fair number of those while I was working in the gaming industry,… Continue Reading “Aeryn’s Archives: Tomb of the Blind God”
Three Things I Learned as a Magazine Editor
From March of 2010 to September of 2013, I was the editor-in-chief of Privateer Press’s in-house magazine No Quarter. I directly produced twenty issues (plus two special editions) as EIC and then another ten or so after I was promoted to publications manager (though the magazine… Continue Reading “Three Things I Learned as a Magazine Editor”
Aeryn’s Archives – Acts of War: Aftershock
Last week, we discussed the first novel I wrote for Privateer Press, so now we’re going to discuss the second. Acts of War: Aftershock is the direct sequel to Acts of War: Flashpoint, and, you guessed it, the second book in the Acts of War… Continue Reading “Aeryn’s Archives – Acts of War: Aftershock”
Aeryn’s Archives – Act of War: Flashpoint
It’s probably about time I talk about the novels I’ve written for Privateer Press in a more detail. I mean, I’m always telling you people I have written novels, so I guess it’s time to put my cards on the table. Today, I’m going to… Continue Reading “Aeryn’s Archives – Act of War: Flashpoint”
Aeryn’s Archives: Dragon #427 (My D&D Swansong)
Looking back over my published credits, there’s one that sticks out, a bittersweet entry in my 15-plus years of professional writing.

Aeryn’s Archives: Dead by Dawn (Dungeon #176)
Been a while since I’ve done one of these, but since I just finished a 5E adventure for Privateer Press, I thought I’d delve back into my gaming career and what might be the most well known thing I’ve done in that arena. This… Continue Reading “Aeryn’s Archives: Dead by Dawn (Dungeon #176)”
Aeryn’s Archives: Roll Credits
Today on Aeryn’s Archives I’m doing something a little different. Instead of looking at a single piece of work I published, we’re gonna look at, uh, all of them. Some of you may have noticed the professional credits page on the blog, but it’s… Continue Reading “Aeryn’s Archives: Roll Credits”
Aeryn’s Archives: Paint-Eater
Today’s installment of Aeryn’s Archives features a short story called “Paint-Eater.” It’s an interesting piece in that it’s one of those stories that took a lot of refining (and a bunch of rejections) to get to a place where it was sellable. I’ll discuss that… Continue Reading “Aeryn’s Archives: Paint-Eater”
Aeryn’s Archives: Night Games
Hey, here’s another installment of Aeryn’s Archives, my series of shameless self-promotional posts about works I’ve published over the fifteen years or so I’ve been writing and editing professionally. The story I want to talk about today is called “Night Games” and it’s easily… Continue Reading “Aeryn’s Archives: Night Games”
Aeryn’s Archives: Cowtown
Today’s installment of Aeryn’s Archives continues a trend of firsts. My comedy/horror story “Cowtown” was the first story I published with The Arcanist and the first story they published after launching. In the ensuing two years and change, The Arcanist has become one of… Continue Reading “Aeryn’s Archives: Cowtown”
