2005

Have you heard of these things called blogs? Blogging wasn’t new in 2005, but it was still a niche hobby for the technologically minded. I had been maintaining a personal blog, and was a regular blog reader. I saw multiple-author blogs devoted to certain subjects and…

Also I did a podcast interview with Dan Berry (check his stuff out here, it’s really excellent) for his Make It Then Tell Everybody series. MITTE is brilliant, really interesting if you’re into comics and how they’re made.

A couple of weeks ago Jim Guthrie asked me if I could make a video for a song from his new album. You may know Jim’s music from the Sword & Sworcery game, Indie Game The Movie or the theme music from my Make It Then Tell Everybody podcast. I love Jim’s music so I immediately said yes of course thank you very much and got to work. I finally finished it today.

The quick and dirty is a somewhat unsatisfying answer: IT DEPENDS.
