Changing the Covers
I use GIMP to do covers. At least I do when I don’t hire out for them. It’s pretty powerful, and the price was right – FREE! Over the last year and a half I’ve learned a lot about how …
A Free Necromancer

Larian 4 – Grandfather’s Locket
Back in March, I decided to write another Larian story. I’ve had fun with his last three adventures (How NOT To Rescue A Damsel In Distress, Measuring Up, and First Blood), and it seemed time to do another one. Plus, …
