It has been some time since I have last written here on the Sand & Steam website. The lack of posting is a direct reflection of the amount of time I have had to work on Sand & Steam. All of the energy I thought I was going to be able to channel into working on Pathfinder content had to be diverted into a writing sample of my upcoming grad school application. As always, sadly, life takes precedence over the non-paying, but fun to do, work.
The upside is this: I think I might be able to use Sand & Steam as part of my thesis when I get into graduate school. You see, I hope to study Collaborative Storytelling, and to use tabletop RPGs as a framework for exploring that topic. Sand & Steam, as an enabler of collaborative storytelling would be a great integration of both my (not yet income providing) hobby, and the scholarly work that will be helping put a little money in my pockets.
For the meantime, there will continue to be a lull in content here on the site. Until I get my writing sample reorganized and polished, I will not be able to devote time to Sand & Steam. This will hopefully only last a week or so, as I want to have my application turned in by the end of the month.
I have some fun stuff brewing for Sand & Steam, and I am looking forward to having the time to work on it, and subsequently, to share it with you.
