This saturday is the lunch/discussion that will be the live feedback for the beta read of my novel. To keep myself occupied and not thinking about it, I have started work on two projects.

One is a film noir SF novel. One part Maltese Falcon, one part Double Indemnity, one part Dark City, and the rest all me. It’s quite dark, and quite cynical.

The other project is a push-your-luck dice game base on the public domain movie: The Night of the Living Dead.

Can the players survive the zombies and each other to escape the farmhouse?

I’m pretty happy with the core mechanics but of course we won;t really know until it’s played,
