You'll be able to find all of the information (current art and participating artists, DJs, activities, location and ticket information) in the following two links one to our website and one to our FB Event & invite.



    Signed Copy of Past Sins Giveaway


    Wanted to let you know that the Literature Pie youtube channel is giving away a copy of Past Sins signed by Pen Strokes to a random commenter/subscriber for the video on how execution can help or hinder a story. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tPdTH8iMG00 It uses a lot of Past Sins examples and is reasonably well done.

    It's only free shipping to the US.

    Wounded Comic Contest Announcement




    I’m not that much of an artist, and one of the things that has bothered me from the start about my game is that my background just looks awful… So how can I find someone who can create a better background? Why, with an art contest of course! But there’s a twist here. I know there are lots of different opinions on what makes good art, but I’m looking for something specific. I’m looking for art that tells a story. But how can I find people whose art tells a story? Simple, with a comic contest!


    Full contest rules and awesome rewards can be found here:


    https://docs.google.com/document/d/1voLNaf0j7xjNpRv2vZZrlLqQbo4BeJlBqBwK6-sjxI4/edit


    TLDR: There’s a chance your artwork, screen name, or OC could be featured in an ambitious MLP game if you’re willing to show your artistic chops by creating a comic for it!
