So I might have gone on a panic backup spree today after Ash Black announced that #CafeAndDiner is going offline next week because of server costs. And by “might” I mean “definitely did.”

My apologies to @internetarchive if it looked like I was performing a frantic DDOS on your servers as I was trying to save an historical archive of this amazing #Unfiction #ErgodicFiction work! This story is so amazing - you’ve got to go see it!

And if you’re too late to catch them live, see the archive at: https://web.archive.org/web/20230327111537/https://www.cafeanddiner.com/cadah

Last night's premiere of Axel's new track 'Vulnerability' on YouTube was so much fun! But did you know you can also pick it up on Bandcamp and support the small creator of an expansive transmedia project?

Tonight at 8 pm CET, Axel Lundén premieres the first reconstructed track from the unreleased Goodbye Susto record. Join us! (Or give it a watch later, at a time that's convenient for you) https://youtu.be/jlHQkR_wrO0

The next part of my game (#ARG) is out there in the world. Super excited to see people digging into this new story. It's an #UnFiction narrative that lives in a deck of cards.

Thorpe's story sits at the edge of the #FTAAArchive universe, but it's grown very close to my heart. Though you might not have a package coming for you in the mail, you can still join the small community and enjoy the story as people open their own envelopes.

The second chapter of Goodbye Susto, which is the follow-up to Under the Surface, has landed! To access, go to axel-lunden.com and select 'read' in the drop-down menu. Here's a little trailer video: https://youtu.be/NqfAFVGwn7o

Current YT binge: Nexpo. Covers online mysteries, ARGs, unfiction, etc. If you're interested, don't start with his latest, Fear of the Deep, as it's atypical of his content.

Just here to announce that Chapter Two of Goodbye Susto, also known as season two of Under the Surface / that Axel Lundén ARG thing, drops this coming Saturday the 25th of February. How exciting! Did I mention it's free to read and interactive?

I love the #paranormal and #cryptids and run a discord called #SpoopyTown dedicated to the unknown and unknowable including #ghosthunting

I love #creepypasta #scp and #unfiction and consume it regularly.

I love #horror films but more specifically the sort that focuses on world-building or interesting monsters. I'm obsessed with Near Dark, Nightbreed, and Train to Busan.

I also love #sciencefiction and #comics and have been on a reading kick of late rediscovering my #library system.
