Hello, fellow human beans!
I wish this wasn't so incredibly overdo, but at least I can excuse myself pretty well this time. Granted, I can usually just excuse myself by being like "working hard on the show, can't talk!", but that, in this case, is neither here nor there.
Things are weird right now, and...

Lovecraft's work is full of vast, incomprehensible cosmic entities. We won't pretend to understand them per se, but this video provides a good primer on some of the most important of them.

Just a quick update—we're changing the time of tomorrow's think tank session from 8:00pm CST to 12:00pm CST!
If you haven't already, come join us on ...
Aaaaaand we're back!
After a slow-crawling eon of new year's update integration, we're finally ready to hit the think tank again. This one should be particularly interesting, because as we promised in the first video (and this forthcoming list), we're going to be using Lovecraft's mythological iconograph...
A resounding silence reigns over our Youtube, Facebook, Twitter, and Tumblr pages. It will for a little while yet.
To the wider internet, it must sound like the still of death. But you guys know. You've seen us at work here, developing the Lifetime Rewards program, and you've seen us alive and well on the Discord server. Dust ...

The Box Comes Open
As you can see, 2018 is ringing some very big changes. Not to the show itself, but to the show's lifeblood: our Patreon community. There's a lot to go over here, so we'll try not to mince words.

Hello, fellow humans (and whatever else may be reading this).
So we're three days out from our big reveal, but we've gotta address something that'll be coming with the bomb. There's a lot on the horizon for Tale Foundry and its supporters, which means we've got to shore up frayed edges. Until now, patrons have be...
What is the Tale Foundry Writing Group?
The Foundry Writing Group is a weekly Twitch stream where we do live readings and group critiques of microfiction submitted by the community. Mostly, it's a place to come and b... 2017-12-29 21:56:46 +0000 UTC View Post
THE WALLS OF IGNORANCE COME CRASHING DOWN AND THE TRUTH STANDS BARE BEFORE YOU!
2017-12-27 22:07:34 +0000 UTC View PostWe recorded the audio a few nights ago and I am about to get working on it. I am currently out in a shaded area ready to go. The only issue is the download speed. It looks like it is going to take a while to download all the way... Anyway, I am down to my last few days in Mexico so I will try and enjoy the sun at the same time a...

We tear this thing open together! Let the speculation about what's on the inside begin!

THE GATES TO THE HOLY CITY FLY OPEN!
...in a manner of speaking?
IT HAPPENS. We're in the single digits now, people! Look alive!
2017-12-23 20:35:38 +0000 UTC View PostThere's a lot about to happen here.
Between the mere 10 days left on that gift box, all the new patrons and Discord members (thank you, thank you, you guys are all amazing), and this upcoming list video, I'm beginning to feel the weight of the workload in the small of my back. Chloe too, even down there in Mexico.

EVERYTHING CHANGES. Kinda. In a good way. Not like "goodbye everything you know and love about the show", just... you know, good stuff.

But only one day before the real count down starts!
2017-12-21 22:18:53 +0000 UTC View PostAs half our team works through the H.P. Lovecraft list video, the other half is preparing to begin research for the following series. We just... need to decide on what that series is going to be.
So, here's your decisive moment: which of these topics do you want the Foundry to cover the most?

Hola,
I saw the doctor yesterday and found out I have bronchitis. I got the medication for it and am starting to feel much better. I've spent some time in the sun and the rest engaging in a fierce battle with spread sheets.
Overall I am having a nice little working vacation!

2017-12-19 21:50:10 +0000 UTC View PostHola mis amigos.
Of course the moment I go to Mexico I get ill. But I haven't let it put a damper on my mood. I am working on setting up some sweet surprises and trying to enjoy the whether. I am seeing a doctor today to try and get this straightened out.

2017-12-18 18:54:23 +0000 UTC View PostAlright, buckle up. If this one doesn't jostle you a little, it's hard to imagine what will.
I posted a few days ago about Patreon's upcoming processing fee change—how they were planning to shift the burden of payment from the creator to the patron, and how that has a severe impact on very low-tier patrons. We were attemptin...
2017-12-17 18:39:49 +0000 UTC View PostThings are happening. A strange wind blows and the grass bends to meet it.
Everything is going relatively well for us right now. We're finally climbing out of the "rut" we were in (in terms of overall viewership and growth) over the last six months and finding our rhythm again. Since the latest video, more than 150 people...
Until we change your world... hopefully? I think it'll be a lot of fun to open this thing, at least.

So update. I aced my finals. No sweat and no brainer!
Now the real juicy stuff. I have been put in charge of prepping a super cool secret. I am going to be working on it all through the month. It's so exciting. I will be leaving the country for Mexico on Saturday, but don't worry. I won'...
That's not even two weeks. I hope you're all ready for the heavens to part.

Because 22 isn't a real number and yesterday didn't exist...?
Whatever. You're a day closer to the thing!
This is good.
So I may not have said it in so many words, but I've been feeling pretty down about our output rate for a while now. It feels like it's been forever since we last put a video out, and the last six or so videos didn't catch on too well. I'm a pretty optimistic person, but when you're pouring 50-80 ho...
There's something strange going on in Lovecraft's mythos, behind the tentacles and cosmic dread. Something of mythological significance that few other writer have ever achieved...
