INTO THE UNBEING
A two-part journey through an Eldritch whale fall.
Part One - out now.
Part Two - out 10/07/25.
In a sentence: It's FANTASTIC VOYAGE into the corpse of a GODZILLA-like creature.

Also on the subject of camera film. Picked this beauty up on a whim at the thrift shop along with an additional lens and two telephoto adapters for $115CAD
Had bad battery corrosion when I got it, I've managed to get it to turn on but the shutter curtain is stuck. I'll be tinkering with it soon

Very basic - start with a basic story engine - a world, a character, a conflict and build from there. Usually start with a character and what they want. I outline in longhand in my journal and revise when transferring to my laptop.
