Difficult to know where to start after this long, so perhaps I should just plough on. I’ll probably delete this in a while anyway as it’s only really relevant for any folk who read this blog in the Old Days, before the Dark Times of the last few years.
In that time, I’ve been doing a bunch of stuff, working for various game companies, and writing articles and stories that I haven’t published. I’ve also been working on a few dozen games of my own, and generally carrying on with my usual nonsense.
There have been many times that I thought I should get back to this blog, and there’s no clear reason why I haven’t. It’s always been a good way to think out loud, to clarify my thoughts, and to occasionally entertain or even help folk. All worthwhile reasons to continue. As I said, not entirely sure why it’s been so hard to do so.
What’s different now? Again, I’m not sure I could tell you. Not succinctly. Not so I’d be sure I was right. It’s a bit of a lot of things, and maybe I’ll be clearer in my own head later and we’ll come back to it. Who knows?
For now, I just wanted to say that I’m going to be back publishing articles on Quirkworthy as of this week. Expect something on Thursdays and another on Mondays. I’m currently thinking of them almost like two separate blogs, which they almost were, but in the end it’s all circling round the same idea of how to create cool stuff, and so the threads are both here. More on each when I post the first article.
Quirkworthy 
I guess I’ll be back reading you then 😙
Me too 🙂
So I was moving house just over a month ago and whilst emptying the attic I happened upon my Deadzone collection. This reminded me of yourself Jake and led me back to this blog which at the time was silent, so I spent an hour or so dredging the depths of the internet to find out where you had disappeared to. Your online presence being somewhat limited, (no doubt by design), I chalked it up as one of life’s mysteries and then suddenly I get an email saying you’ve dropped a post on your blog.
Which is a very roundabout way of saying welcome back! I hope that the Dark Times haven’t been too dark and I wish you well with future posts.
Thanks 🙂
One of the hazards of client work is the omnipresence of NDAs, which means that there’s often very little I’m allowed to discuss. However, I’m trying to limit my client work at the moment, so I’ve got more time for my own stuff, including this blog.
When will I be seeing you turn up on Jordan Sorcery’s channel?
I shall have to consult the runes…
