I posted earlier about the upcoming Broadleaf Writers Conference, but there have been a few changes to my worldbuilding panel, so I’m using that excuse to post again and remind you writers out there that this is a really good, intimate conference with lots of great speakers.

"How Are the Very Rich Feeling About New York’s Next Mayor?" A Dramatic Reading of The Recent New York Times Dispatch from the Hamptons. Presented by The Gilded Age's Morgan Spector.

Now that the madness of Dragon Con is over, I can turn my attention to the upcoming 10th-Annual Broadleaf Writers Conference, this September 20-21 at the Decatur Library in downtown Decatur, GA. I'll be moderating a panel on worldbuilding! Come join us! broadleafwriters.com/10th-annual-...

Our classic #4X #indiegame Emperor of the #FadingSuns is part of a #Steam bundle with HyperEmpire and Noble Armada: Lost Worlds. I am streaming HyperEmpire while talking about how a #gamedev can set up their own Steam bundles. youtube.com/live/A78_isk...

In 1974, Jack Kirby Kirby did a story where the super-rich are so powerful they are able to rent entire cities and turn them into their playground & push aside all lawful authority. ("In the Era of the Super-Rich," OMAC #4, 1974).

I’m one of those “freedom freaks”!

So @billbridges.bsky.social knocked this one out of the park in the Fading Suns character book. Like damn in 2025 that sure hits like a truck.

I do love a good Writerly Meetup and these are some of the bestest folks. Featuring @dzgrizzle.bsky.social @billbridges.bsky.social @marcmonroe.bsky.social Jessica Nettles Derek Phillips C. Adam Volle #WriterSky

So much so that RFK Jr. should wear a “BOB’s On BOARD” bumper sticker.

Join me at JordanCon this weekend! At the Crowne Ravinia Plaza in Atlanta. Follow the link for the panel schedule: bill-bridges.com/join-me-at-j...

Just remembering how Joe Biden forgiving some student loans was taking the power of the presidency too far.

CEOs upset about Trump’s tariffs sound like mob bosses shouting “I thought we had a deal!” at the Joker.

oh, WHOAH. on the slope up to Douglas Preston's Extinction. And? Cool that GRRM was behind the curtain on this—cool for me because when we played Werewolf Apocalypse (see @chuckwendig.bsky.social there, & @billbridges.bsky.social running it!), I was . . . a dire wolf for the whole campaign!

It's a great day for an Emperor War! "Emperor of the Fading Suns Enhanced" is now on Steam! (store.steampowered.com/app/2799350/...) To help celebrate, the Merchant League hath decreed a sale on digital Fading Suns products! (www.ulisses-ebooks.de/browse.php?f...) A great time enter the jumpgate!

In better news the stiff tariffs on Gilligan’s Island may finally break the totalitarian rule of the Marxist DEI-swollen “professor”

Jenn Lyons' latest update for her "Full Negative: A Novel" crowdfunding made me realize it's time once again to share the link for that. There's 9 days left to back it, and I really want to see the full Setting Guide stretch goals -- so help a guy out, won't you? www.backerkit.com/c/projects/j...

Next week, April 7 at 9pm, I'll be live on Dragonmount's #reWoTch, to discuss episode 6 of season 3 of The Wheel of Time. Click the link to get notified when it goes live. www.youtube.com/watch?v=_fMs...

Like many other authors, Meta hoovered up a lot of my books. I don't own the rights to most of these, but I doubt they bothered to get consent from the current rights holders.

Proud to be the 9th backer 😎 on @BackerKit Crowdfunding for Full Negative - A Novel! www.backerkit.com/c/projects/j...

OK. My quick attempt at "My Omelas, Right Or Wrong." 1/X Let me tell you about this incredible place, Omelas. It’s huge, folks, absolutely beautiful. Everybody’s happy. Everybody’s winning. The economy, it's fantastic, the best economy anyone’s ever seen, believe me.

With so much s*** hitting the fan daily in this nation of ours, it's good to see some good news: Leonard Peltier is home. ictnews.org/news/hello-e...

Adam at Mage: the Podcast interviewed me about, well, Mage. And White Wolf. And Fading Suns. If you can stand the sound of my voice, have a listen. You can find it on most of the podcast apps, and here: podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/m...

My list of favorite media from 2024. Happy New Year! open.substack.com/pub/billbrid...

One of our older #videogames, #Warhammer #40K: Final Liberation, is having a bit of a resurgence right now. It was the first Warhammer computer strategy game. I had a fun interview with Tactical Tortoise and its #gamedev. He had a lot of good insights about the game itself youtu.be/FX3meDz11io?...

What the—? The Macy’s parade hosts just said that the Spider-Man float is based on “John Romita Sr’s design”. This makes it seem that he designed Spider-Man, not Steve Ditko. Is this a maneuver by Disney to silence mention of Ditko in light of his heirs’ lawsuit?

I still can’t believe I got to hang out for a few hours at #CarlJung Bolligen Tower this summer. I can still feel the potency.

I've always wished that Peter Jackson had filmed the Scouring of the Shire for the extended edition LotR movies. I know, I know: RotK already had too many "endings" for most peoples tastes. But really, it didn't have enough. 1/2

Folks, come join me this weekend at CONjuration! Bring your original, creative idea and learn how to go from being a Fan to a Pro! Attend any session(s), workshop(s) or discussion(s) during CONjuration in the Story Plant room. Hope to see you there! www.conjurationcon.com/fan-to-pro/

Hey new folks on Bluesky, please remember that artists and writers are still getting established here, and promoting them in your feed to others is a big part of the participation here. Never hesitate to push someone else’s post about their work!

1. What if ... Jack Kirby created Norman Podhoretz? Is it possible that the greatest of all comic book artists had, in the early 1940s, a visionary insight into the future career of the godfather of neo-conservatism? A strange but true tale of upward-mobility & class betrayal.

The March To Dispel Negative Perceptions Of Clowns is still happening this Sunday at dusk, right at the edge of the woods near the abandoned children’s hospital. The calliope we rented is out of tune but we’re going to go ahead and play it anyway. Come join us! Join. Us.

That makes my day.

In these trying times, miracles of miracles, we got a new Beatles song this week. And a music video to go with it, directed by Peter Jackson. I'm enjoying listening to first reactions from listeners of the "I am the EggPod" podcast. iamtheeggpod.com/2023/11/04/n...

It's Steve Gerber's birthday! Every Gerber story I read was evidence that mainstream comics could be so much more than I’d ever imagined. That there was no creative door that couldn’t be kicked in, no creative wall that couldn’t be torn down. His voice is sorely missed.

Aw, no. I was in love with her in the late ‘80s. Farewell, Sinead. https://www.irishtimes.com/culture/music/2023/07/26/sinead-oconnor-acclaimed-dublin-singer-dies-aged-56/

Walks in, looks around. The air smells fresher here.
