Happy 50th Birthday to Games Workshop! 💀🎉
Lovely retrospective in White Dwarf including staff memories & the fun detail behind the first ever store gaming table!
What's your earliest memory of GW?
Here are two of mine - my first miniature and my first ticket to Games Day from ~20 years ago! :-)
Impeccable choice 👌

She easily beats everyone else on sheer scale - and is therefore ten times better overall (I think she'd claim anyway, and I'm not going to argue 😂)

And if you're a Warhammer+ subscriber you can see me talking (and gesticulating!) all things Tyranid for a good 40 minutes with the very patient @alexdoddy.bsky.social on the Warhammer TV Scribes and Scriveners show :-)

Last week I had the pleasure of popping in to the Super Relaxed Fantasy Club (@srfantasyclub.bsky.social ) for a reading and a Q&A.
Before that, I had to figure out the right pacing. You can now find the (no spoilers) alternate reading up on Youtube (link in reply).
Master of Rites is up for pre-order next Saturday in limited edition, hardback, French and German editions!
I’m so incredibly proud of this book, and taking on the next step in Ferren’s story has been an honour - I can’t wait to see what people think of it.
TY they will be 600 pages long and take place in a single day 🙏

Tank u for taking the time to review my stories! 🖤🙏
It is a much appreciated way of supporting authors and means a great deal - plus is of course a welcome motivator to hop into the ol' Black Library Rhino carpool to work and keep typing grim tales 💀
Who’s that terrified person in the thumbnail? Oh wait, that’s me 😂

Bad. That's why 30 of us have to pile in 🤣
