Interview with Mongoose and Meerkat Illustrator, DarkFilly
Bounding Into Comics has an interview we did with DarkFilly, our illustrator for Jim Breyfogle’s Mongoose and Meerkat Vol 1: Pursuit Without Asking.
The interview can be read here.
Be sure to check out the Mongoose and Meerkat kickstarter. We’re just $650 away from our stretch goal to create OSR content for Mongoose and Meerkat’s adventures.
Thank you to all of our backers so far!
Interview with Critical Blast
Last Sunday, I was on with RJ Carter of Critical Blast. We were supposed to have Michael Tierney with us, but his computer at home is a potato and could log into StreamYard.
I was a little under-prepared, because this was supposed to be Michael’s stream and I was just gonna chill and let him do most of the talking.
Be sure to buy as much Wild Stars as you can so we can afford to get Michael a computer that he can actually stream on!
Also, don’t forget, we’re accepting submissions now!

Interview: Joe Stech – Compelling Science Fiction
[originally posted here at Castalia House]
Last week, I came across something interesting in my WordPress Reader feed – Someone was starting a brand new pro-level science fiction magazine, Compelling Science Fiction, and was looking for submissions for their first issue. As someone who was just tipping his toe into the SFF magazine market, I was more than a little intrigued, not to mention impressed, that someone was saying “I want to support a particular type of Science Fiction and I’m willing to put my money where my mouth is to do so.”
The introduction of any new paying market is bound to make a stir in the writing community, but a new pro-level market is a huge deal. I wanted to find out more!
So joining us today is Joe Stech, founder and editor-in-chief of Compelling Science Fiction, to talk to us about his project.
Interview – Karl Gallagher, Author of Torchship
[originally posted here at Castalia House]
I recently tore myself away from the pulps and my own Appendix N reading to check out Torchship by Karl Gallagher. The book has come out to rave reviews, including Winchell Chung’s Atomic Rockets Seal of Approval with “a platinum star with diamond clusters”. Personally, I was blown away and could barely put it down. This book had everything from space battles with rogue AI to crazed big game hunters to buried space treasure!
Torchship is an impressive book by an incredible author. I was absolutely thrilled to have Karl Gallagher give me some of his time over the last weeks to answer some of the burning questions I’ve had ever since finishing.
Thank you, Karl!
Alex: To an unscientific fellow like myself, I’d say “Karl Gallagher is a guy who makes spaceships for a living”. A gross oversimplification, I know, so why not tell us a little about your background in aeronautics engineering?
Karl: That ought to be “used to make spaceships for a living.” These days I’m working on fighter planes.
Cirsova on Superversive SF
I was on the Superversive Podcast on Sunday night. You can listen to it here:
I was also on the radio on the Shane Plays show. When the podcast goes up, we’ll post it here.
In Case You Missed it…
Jay Barnson, who has stories with us in issues 4 and 5, was interviewed at Castalia House by Scott Cole on Monday. You can read it here.
The interview largely focuses on Barnson’s work as a game developer, so if you dig vidya, you should definitely check it out!
At some point, I’ll be posting a review of Frayed Knights, an indie FPRPG that Jay made with his Rampant Games collaborators, so be looking forward to that, too.
Interview with Donald J. Uitvlugt
Scott has a new interview up with Donald J. Uitvlugt. You can read it here.
