Winter	Interview!
Posted on: 10:04:59 / 13-08-2008	I almost forgot to mention, I've just done an interview with Sonja Nitschke of the Web Fiction Guide. You can find it here. It was good fun, my first interview in real-time. Read it for some good questions and the occasional bit of insight. Regards, Ryan

Winter	New Feature: Things I Like/Hate
Posted on: 17:57:46 / 05-08-2008	Hi guys, I'm starting a new thing on the forums (which I've now moved over to Gryphonwood on a permanent basis) called Things I Like/Hate, which is essentially a series of mini-reviews about media I'm currently experiencing. Expect loads of sarcasm and some cautious enthusiasm. I'll be moving the reviews from the old forum there, as well as any old newsposts worth keeping. Regards, Ryan

Winter	New Writing Group
Posted on: 00:36:22 / 03-08-2008	Hi guys, Gryphonwood Press has just started its very own writing group to offer critiques and advice to budding writers. I'll be administrating and posting in it myself, the only writing group I'll ever be a part of. You can find information on joining the group on the Gryphonwood forums. I hope to see the writers among you there! Regards, Ryan

New Review

Posted on: 01:58:02 / 30-07-2008

The Web Fiction Guide has just put up a review of Empathy, giving it three stars out of five. I personally disagree with most of what's said, but there's no arguing about a review!

All I can say is that Street loads a lot of its information and characterisation between the lines. I guess you either connect with it or you don't. It's written to my own style of reading, always trying to take in every detail of every line and believing that people show their character in subtle, subtle ways. And of course leaving just enough of it up to the reader's imagination.

As far as the CP style/content goes, I don't know. Maybe you have to have read Neuromancer to see how Street does things a little bit differently. It's got the same elements but mixes them up in unusual ways, which was kind of the point.

Either way, feel free to post your own thoughts to the Street WFG page, whatever they might be!

Regards,
Ryan

Winter	Empathy e-books
Posted on: 03:20:13 / 18-07-2008	I'm happy to announce that you can now buy the e-book version of Empathy from Gryphonwood's shop over at lulu.com. This is a nice-quality e-book and offers the lowest price tag for enjoying Empathy on an e-reader, even compared to our shiny Kindle version. You could read our downloadable PDFs on an e-reader, I suppose, but it just wouldn't be the same, would it? Regards, Ryan
