- Will likes to stay surprised by places he lives
- A/N/N is future forward, but not limited by an “Elevator Pitch.” It is meant to inspire
- A relevant tangent about a possible future episode of DFL
- Hacking approximately equals Mashups — neither is “fixing.”
- Will wrote a Mortal Kombat RPG system
- The process of creating – whether on the clock or on the weekend.
- Repetition does not destroy creativity on this type of game
- What makes A/N/N, an intended Creative Commons product, a Kickstarter project?
- Ghost Pirates chatter

So I’m going to need some more art for some of these Ghost Pirates promo cards that I’ve promised… So help me find an artist! Link me to a portfolio/deviantart site with good examples of their work that might fit my needs. The person who first links the portfolio I like best will take back $10 in free game PDF goods (incidentally, Ghost Pirates will be priced at $10 for a PDF when released)…just FYI.
