“If [I] start thinking about the details, [I] will either go down the wrong path
and not record or [I’ll] talk [my]self out of it.”
ISBW 22.3
I finally finished the archives, and learned quite a bit about myself, not all good things. We also touch on Hugo season, book club scams, and AI publicists.

Notes
- I FINISHED THE ARCHIVES! Now I just have to figure out how to release them.
- Hugo voting is open!
- I’m playing Dispatch and Clair Obscur, which are going to be my nominations for the Best Game Hugo.
- Dispatch has made me think a lot about interactive fiction.
- Beware the newest book club scam.
- I want to stream some solo-RPGs. I’m considering ION HEART, Midnight Muscadines, and A Perfect Rock.
- Annalee Newitz and Charlie Jane Anders made pure gold with Our Opinions Are Correct.
- Check out my 2026 appearances thus far! Next one is Ret-Con in Durham, NC, March 6-8.
