Celebrating Cumberland
Greetings Everyone!
It was my birthday recently, so to mark the occasion I’ve made the last three posts in Pillars of Salt sequence free. They’re a special run of posts all focusing on the city of Cumberland and its history. The area has such a deep and fascinating history that I have been looking forward to sharing with people.
I’ve also got an idea percolating for the next sequence. We’ve still got a ways to go with Pillars of Salt, but I’m excited to start fleshing out something for you all once we finish our road trip together.
We’ve also got a lot of exciting things lined up for Disclosures, over at Whitehot Magazine, and I’ll continue to share those development with you here.
As always, click on the titles to see the post.
