Worldbuilding Tonight on the TypecastRPG Twitch Stream

Tuesday October 15, 2019 • Howard Tayler

Tonight at 9pm Eastern on the TypecastRPG Twitch Stream I’ll be talking about worldbuilding with fellow worldbuilders, scene-setters, and cosmos-creators Mari Murdock, Charlie Holmberg, and Brian McClellan.

Our Dungeon Master is out of town, and our paladin is honeymooning, so it’s possible we’ll have a USB port open for an Art Cam!

Join us at 9pm Eastern for an hour (or two!) of animated¹ discussion, Q&A², and personal growth³.

¹ Art Cam notwithstanding, there will be no actual animation. Just (hopefully) me drawing stuff.
² If you want your Q’s A’d, join the chat! 
³ None of us have had this discussion with each other, so inevitably we will grow from it. This is a thing that happens during discussions. 

UVU Book Academy: Friday the 11th!

Thursday October 10, 2019 • Howard Tayler

This Friday, October 11th, I’ll be on the Wasatch Campus of Utah Valley University for their Book Academy conference.

Kinda late notice, I know. Sorry about that!

I’m on a panel, “Grand Openings And Then What” (talking about beginnings of stories) at 11:00 am in room 202, and I’m teaching “Crafting Humor for the Page” at 3:30 pm in room 229.

Outside of those events, well, I’ll be at the conference all day. If you catch up with me in the hall I’m sure I’ll be helpful in some way.

Streaming Today: “Big Dumb Cover Art”

Thursday October 10, 2019 • Howard Tayler

Today at 7pm Eastern (5pm my time) I’ll be streaming from my drafting table. Follow and subscribe at twitch.tv/howardtayler

Today’s project is the cover art for the next Schlock Mercenary collection, Big Dumb Objects. I’ll be starting with concept thumbnails, so if you show up early and join the discussion, you might just influence the final product!

I’ll also be taking suggestions for future streams, and I might even work on some Schlock Mercenary comics if I get stalled on the cover.
