We are decorating the home office and have room for three *very nice and quite large* art prints. What are you putting in that space? I need video game/film/any inspiration of cool art you can think of.

I would love to write about games more than I do. It seems such a harsh economy to break into now and I feel bad for young writers who won’t have the chances I was afforded back when I was 16. I think my last review was Assassin’s Creed: Mirage 😞

Is anyone playing this game? I’m liking the vibe but also plenty I’m not enjoying. The end of Act 1 area was a nightmare to navigate.
I feel very sorry for anyone who had to write a guide for Hell is Us.

Punchdrunk's new show is basically a live video game, with founder Felix Barrett referencing Immortality and Blue Prince in an interview with TimeOut. Lander 23 sounds interesting, although I will forever miss the slow burn of their white mask productions.

Now I’ve hit over 1K followers I wanted to promote this list again for comic writers, artists and creatives to find each other. So much talent on here, and still room for those who want to be included!

I’ve just finished six weeks working with the Lionesses social team and it’s still not quite sinking in. We won! To play a small part in telling the story of such an incredible group of women is truly an honour and something I will look back on very proudly.

Would love to connect with more comic artists on here, particularly if you’ve got a really *unique* style. I’m a writer with a lot of ideas - say hello!
