richt I have been asked by a few fans just why we’re doing the God Machine Chronicle and the Strix: Blood and Smoke Chronicle books. The answer to that comes from two sets of ideas. For the first, we have to go back to when WW launched the New World of Darkness, almost nine years ago. … Read more
This week, what I can relay about our Monday Lunch Meeting is pretty limited in that Eddy and I had quite a bit to cover, but most of it was behind the scenes or stuff that’ll be talked about soon. Nothing we can really blab about as yet. Which leaves the twenty minutes we talked … Read more
Before getting to the Monday Lunch Meeting Notes, here are a few thoughts that have arisen based on some emails I received last week (although we did talk about these at lunch too).

Very tough balance, but anyone … Read more
One of the hardest things to accomplish with the start-up of Onyx Path has been getting the word out as to who we are and what we’re working on. This past year, we talked to you folks via forums, Facebook, Twitter, and Reddit AMA. We shared various interviews with our gang, blog posts, and dove into your … Read more
