The Austin Diaries (Introduction)
I’m currently sitting at Chicago O’Hare using overpriced wi-fi on my phone to bring you this exciting update. Only a couple of hours until my connection to Austin and a whole world of game development promise…I sat next to a woman who used to be a marketing manager for a huge book publisher on the flight over. She regaled me with a tale of how said publisher was royally screwed over by the holder of a big movie IP (a REALLY big movie IP) after being suckered into a multi-title deal. Sobering, and another reason why it’s good to stay out of ‘big business’. That said, I’m cooking up ideas for the Mode 7 empire as we speak, so when I’m old and broke you can come back to me and mock me for failing to listen to my younger self.
