This is what I'm up to...

This page is where I try to keep a current list of projects I'm working on. Emphasis on try.
Theme
I've begun the practice of assigning a theme to each year. This year's theme is somewhat meta: the foundation for the next 10 years.
This means I am focusing on the fundamental aspects:
- Where we live
- What we do
- How we do it
New Home
Last year, we purchased an empty lot in Mar del Plata, Argentina. We are now in the process of creating a permacultural environment, which includes bioconstruction and reforestation. This project occupies a significant portion of my mental energy at the moment.
Our goal is to establish a serene and authentic space for Aldi, Dori, and myself where we can unwind and truly be ourselves.
On Writing Games
After a much-needed break of a month and a half, I have resumed work on my interactive storytelling mailing list.
This project aligns with the "what I do" and "how I do it" aspects, as it allows me to delve into what matters to me (the how) about interactive storytelling (the what).
I'm also hoping this endeavor will connect me with like-minded writers and developers, as I've grown weary of purely business-oriented conversations.
Dance of the Spirits
Hidden People Club has now become a two-person effort to release a small narrative game. We are working on this in our spare time, striving to avoid unnecessary stress.
This change reflects my disillusionment with the publisher-backed model that imposes a rigid business structure, restricts the games we can develop, and heightens the risk, requiring a game to be nearly complete before securing a deal.
Web Development
I am currently working part-time as a web developer for Beezwax Datatools.
