As expected, I'll be submitting a YA Urban Fantasy. In a shocking turn of events, it will not be the same YA Urban Fantasy I submitted in '23 and '24. Excited for RevPit this year and to try throwing a different project into the contest!

NEW VIDEO: I take a close look at the animation of Civilization VII and its leaders, and how the game creates them as characters and personality with just a few scenes and acting choices www.youtube.com/watch?v=F6KU...
