The Wind of Change

Right, well, since I feel there's been some renewed interest in me and my work lately - that's what happens when you dramatically quit your video series of 16 years to go independent with your recently fired editor - I thought it was well past time I updated this site. So, in no particular order: 

  • Existentially Challenged is now available in every imaginable format! So, audible, print and ebook. Links in the top right. 
  • The third book in the Jacques McKeown trilogy, Will Leave The Galaxy For Good, is very much in the works and the Audible release will be some time next year. 
  • My newest game in development, Starstruck Vagabond, has a Steam page! No concrete release date yet, but keep wishlisting it so the pressure keeps getting to me. 
Oh and not much else, just the fact that I quit Zero Punctuation and the Escapist and have started a new venture alongside Nick Calandra, the Escapist's former editor in chief, and the Escapist's entire video team. It's called Second Wind, it's a 100% independently owned and funded gaming and pop culture channel, and I'm doing a weekly game review series called Fully Ramblomatic that some of you old timers will find weirdly familiar. 

Subscribe to the Second Wind Patreon! It's literally what keeps it (and me) going.

  4. Man, I just followed those blogs on facebook for the sole purpose of getting the above information, because you kinda disappeared from these two places, and then BAM a week later you update the website and post on twitter! Nice! PS I'd love to see you on Threads since twitter imploded...

    Please let us know the minute Leave The Galaxy is available for pre-order! My kids and I can't wait 🥰

  6. I did listen to a few books and want to get the others, but I would like to know if they are available on other platforms or from sources outside of the Bezos empire (bonus if you get a better share too)

  9. Incredibly happy to see the whole team moving on together, and given that you've stuck with The Escapist through what seems like at least 3 or 4 EICs, parent company changes, and controversies, it speaks volumes about how much all of you care and enjoy working with each other. Can't wait to see the new art style!
