The Checklist - Jetpac & Friends
I guess this ends up being sort of an ad-hoc review for Rare Replay: I think it's super cool, even if a lot of the games don't hold up to my oh-so-delicate modern sensibilities.

Read MoreThe Quarry Issue #10 is live! →
The Quarry Issue #10 is up and running! After all the blood, sweat and words put in by my class and the editorial team, it's good to go!
The Quarry is an annual journal put out by Macquarie University, to showcase work from the graduating class. I was on the editorial team this year, and I helped edit several of the pieces up there.
Things I had a more direct role in are the fiction editorial, which I had a minor hand in writing, and Intro to House-Ape Studies, which is a story I wrote!
A physical version is coming out in a few weeks, which you can buy here.
