"Minecraft: Story Mode" Nominated for a Nickelodeon Kids' Choice Award!

Cough, cough.

Excuse me. All this surface air is just a bit much - I've been buried under writing Minecraft: Story Mode episode 5 for the last few months and haven't been up here much. But you know what I saw when I emerged from my writer-cave? Nickelodeon has nominated Minecraft: Story Mode for a Kids' Choice Award! That's right! There are kids who might want to choose Minecraft: Story Mode as their favorite video game!

Remember Kids. Choices matter.

Whoa! "Tales from the Borderlands" is getting nominated for a bunch of awards!

Ah, the end of the year. The holidays, cold weather, SantaCon... and all the websites starting to put together their "Best Of" lists.  Gaming mega-site, IGN, has started polling for its Game of the Year awards and they were kind enough to nominate Tales from the Borderlands in a whopping TEN categories! (You remember TFTBL, right? I helped write on it from 2014-2015)

Such a freaking honor to have been part of that team, and an even bigger honor to see all these rad nominations starting to come in.

"Minecraft: Story Mode" episode 3 released today!

Get excited you guys, because Minecraft: Story Mode episode 3 is officially coming out today! I wrote the original outline and first draft of the script for this one before I got pulled over to help write episode 2 and there is a lot of crazy stuff that I can't believe actually made it into the game. Seriously, the whole MC:SM team did such an amazing job with this episode. In particular, this episode introduces Soren, (voiced by the one and only John Hodgman) who might just be one of my favorite characters in the whole series.

Check out the trailer and then go download the episode on whatever platform gives you your gaming jollies! In the meantime I'll just be over here cramming away on writing episode 5.
