Ooops, I wrote a whole essay about “Wicked: For Good” — R.E. Bellesmith - Author

I spent $4,367 to publish a book that came out one year ago. This is how it went. rebellesmith.com/blog-1-1/on… #WritingCommunity #IndiePublishing #Fantasy

Pyre is underrated, one of the best experiences I've had playing a game. If you haven't tried it, I highly recommend!

On this day eight years ago, we launched our third game, Pyre. We went on to make Hades, which is different in many ways, yet builds on shared ideas and themes that still inspire us. To all those who led the Nightwings to the end of their journey, thank you! Noxalas!!💫
