I made art every day for a year. I didn’t wear pants while doing it. I put the art in a fancy hardcover book. The book doesn’t wear pants, either.

Deepwater Creations is a singular chap named Dylan Craine. Dylan is writing a series of short stories on Patreon about an eccentric musician named Doomsday Comet and his journey across the moons of a distant planet, pursued by a mad saxophonist from his past and accompanied by a disciplinarian space-monk.

Dylan releases a new story to patrons at the end of each month. Non-patrons can check out the first story and several pieces of SF/fantasy flash-fiction to get a taste for the style of the writing, which may very well convince them to become ex-non-patrons. Go see for yourself at:

Based on the award-winning Mouse Guard Roleplaying Game, Torchbearer is a riff on the early model of fantasy roleplaying games. In it, you take on the role of a fortune-seeking adventurer. To earn that fortune, you must delve into forlorn ruins, brave terrible monsters and retrieve forgotten treasures. However, make no mistake, this game is not about being a hero or about fighting for what you believe. This game is about exploration and survival. You may become a hero. You might have to fight for your ideals. But to do either of those things, you must prove yourself in the wilds. Because there are no jobs, no inheritance, no other opportunities for your deadbeat adventurers. This life is your only hope to prosper in this world.
