Go Read Crimson Dark (Not Azure Light)!

2 Replies

Looking for a great new read?
Something sci-fi, but without the cheese?

Go read Crimson Dark.

It looks great, reads great, and is even made by a passing acquaintance of mine (which I didn’t realise until I had been reading the comic for a while).

The story is really starting to pick up now (it’s up to chapter four), but it makes the most sense if you start from the beginning. It’s got a bit of a Firefly feel to it, which makes it worthy of reading by itself, but add pretty explosions, witty banter, and a willingness to treat the readers as real human beings with real human brains makes it a real treat.

Do yourself (and David) a favour, and go read it.

I was recently offered a small amount of money to place an ad on two of my posts.

Of course I took it :)

The ads are labelled as such, and are on a couple of older posts.

Not really too important, but it’s always nice when someone emails you and offers you money.

I am guilty of this sin, and I’m a hypocrite. I’m sorry Jen.

An introductory video. I can only point out one mistake, there must only ever be three pats, no more, no less. I’m. Not. Gay.

Wise words from Gordon. Sorry Jen.

Think about what you give your kids.
