My Plans After Pride 2025

 Hello. C J here. Going to Kingston Pride has helped me decide what I’m working on next now that I can do product design and writing in any order. This required the core rules of all six game lines be done and out for play testing. Now for what’s to come in the next year or so. First up, I need a novel to sell at next Pride. This will be in print with my home printing and hand binding setup. Find more about that in the pages menu this blog has.

I’m going to proofread Impossible Skyline, my fourth novel, for sale first. My first novel will be for sale later, at least several years. My other two novels are The Astral Chronicle One and Two. These two I might wait on until I write the other seven and sell them as a hardcover omnibus. All of these will be up for free PDF download as well when they’re done. So, priority one, Impossible Skyline.

Now that I’m back to working with that genre, the strange industrial engineering project of a narrative that book is, I’m also going to start planning the sequel. There will be at least three in the series and each one will be mostly self contained but continue the characters’ stores. Find a free sample of the first one in the Downloads section of the blog. In the first Impossible Skyline we have a mix of genders for the main cast, one gay male, one female First Nations themed wolf police officer, a Hispanic secondary protagonist police chief, one very well dressed Middle Eastern male and a human with a thing for dating lizard folk. That sounds diverse enough to sell.

I should have enough time to work on one or two other things. Finishing the Quantum core rules will sort of be one of them but Quantum is made so slowly due to all the math involved that I don’t count it. Instead I’ll be working on the next several Heart and Fur books. Heart and Fur is always going to be an experimental product even though everything in it is play tested and works. That’s all for now. Expect free samples of the games soon and a full novel PDF within a year.

Announcing Legend - Quantum

 Hello. C J here. I'm announcing today the official tabletop RPG companion to my upcoming video game line Quantum Dragon. The tabletop RPG companion is named Legend - Quantum. I finally get to write something in the Legend series again. I am very happy about this. The Legend series other than this one is done and will be out once its proofread, which may be a while from now. Reliably this series is the best work I've ever done on anything. I'm planning on writing setting and character sourcebooks for the whole game line as well but for now I'm working on the core book for the video game crossover. There's a free in-development copy in the Downloads page now. Have fun. C J Mcpherson

Minecraft Experiments - Steampunk Part One

 Hello. C J here. It's time for more Minecraft. This time we have some steampunk themed buildings. I'm doing these mostly as an experiment and they aren't in the part of the Astral I usually build, Ascala. Ascala needs more planning so I'm doing generic Astral themes instead of a specific nation this time. Remember that lighthouse form earlier? Well we're going in its direction this time. But first a long minecart ride from the underground station. And here we are in Port Stone. You'll notice the style of building is different. That's because it's a different part of the setting were building here. Here on the surface we have a boat waiting for us. We have a long voyage ahead of us. They've implemented some beautiful coral reefs in one of the previous updates. Believe it or not I've been playing Minecraft since before there were horses in it. Minecraft is still good. And here we are, at the new steampunk build site in the middle of an ocean. We h...

My New Favourite Video Game Part Two

 Hello. C J here. I’m just going to continue discussing the video games I’m playing for a while. I’m planning out another batch of Minecraft builds while I play Pokemon Mystery Dungeon Red Rescue Team. It’s kind of weird that these are job activities for me but they are. The Minecraft builds need to be done so I can learn some more things about level design. The Pokemon game is what I’m doing for fun. At least it was. Pokemon make great inspiration for the work I do and the stories I write. I’m now having to make more time for it. Most of the characters in my setting are inspired by the Pokemon games. Our main characters Ivy, Blue, William and Benjamin are all based on some of the Pokemon in the first three generations. Ivy is specifically a fictitious all black Pokemon. Blue is an all blue togepi, William is a persian and Benjamin is a tauros without the horns. I’m going to get back to drawing humanoid versions of the first three generations eventually. These to my knowledge count...
