Yes, things have been quiet here. Due to hosting issues, and the fact that the writing thing has been taking off, and the day-job shifted into overdrive a while back that was nearly as bad as the games industry. We won’t speak of what’s been going on with 2020 and 2021. With all that, my own indie game development efforts have ground down to tinkering levels – mostly with Virtual Reality. While I’m online quite a bit, a lot of time has been spent on social media… which is where the people are, but it’s also somebody else’s place.
I’m not planning on retiring this site or anything at this point–if anything, I want to give it a little more attention. I’m not as actively focused on indie gaming or indie game development, so I have less to say, but I’m still gaming and indie games are still where it’s at. “Indie” has become a lot more complicated of a term now than when I started, that’s for sure. And that’s probably a good thing. We started as the scrappy underdogs, and now… well, we’re still the underdogs, but there’s a gazillion of us.
Anyway, for those still paying attention: Hi, sorry for the unannounced hiatus.
If you are interested in the writing side of things… well, I’ve got five books out (four novels and an anthology), and a whole mess of short stories, with much more coming. You can learn more over at jaybarnson.com.
Rock on!

Good to hear you’re still going strong. Haven’t been to the blog here in quite a while…really missing the old days. Ah, well. Life.
