Launch party for AFK, All of it

It’s time for me to move on from the AFK novels. To mark this closure, I’ve combined all five volumes into one, 740 page book. ‘AFK, All of it’ will launch next Friday in Kindle, ePub, paperback and hardcover. I will also be selling a PDF version, but if you come to the party you […]

New from HHAX: The Ladderax v2

As some of you know, I’m slightly in love with mid-20th century design, especially that era of Danish Modern teak veneered furniture that straddles the 60s and 70s. The reason for this is simple: my parents owned a number of pieces of such furniture. My favourite of all of these – which still takes up […]

Praise for the AFK series

Warning: self-congratulatory post ahead (with yet more stuff about posting reviews). I’m currently putting together an all-in-one compilation of the five AFK novels. Although this will be available in Kindle format, I’m creating this one with print in mind for anyone who has read and enjoyed the series and would like a print copy, but […]

New from HHAX: Blank tape

I don’t really regard myself in SL as a ‘content creator.’ My philosophy of building is simply to create from time-to-time items I would like to own myself. For some time, now, I’ve wanted to create a cassette tape in mesh, but my skills have not been up to the job. With the recent building […]

Real

Fifty years into the future, she asked if I had a 39-20 she could upload herself into. I told her I had a second-hand model, a deal from Sacamano’s on the corner of 4th and Alma; I got a discount because the motor was burned out on both eyes. She said, “What’s the point in […]

New from HHAX: The Dragonfly

Another building. I decided I wanted to create something a bit grander this time. The Dragonfly is a large, 32m x 32m building. It has a large, open hall with towering vertical concrete columns which cast some dramatic shadows in the right windlight. It has a mezzanine floor accessed by a mesh staircase, and the […]

2077: A moving postcard

I liked 2077 so much (read my review here) I just had to go back in and create a short machinima there (my first ever attempt at this in Sansar). I hope you like it.

Sansar just got interesting

I have to admit, since my first blog post on Sansar, I’ve not made very many return trips. I’ve been struggling to make the connection to this new platform that I’ve had with Second Life for so many years now. I’ve wondered for a while why this might be. I’ve had a number of thoughts […]
