[QUOTE="thirdkingdom, post: 9257694, member: 78442"] ZineMonth is here, and I've started posting interviews with creators who are participating in the event. They'll be posting Monday through Friday at 1:00 pm eastern time. Thus far I've posted two interviews: [LIST] [*]Jim Hall of Brooklet Games crowdfunding one of the games I've been looking forward to since he started posting about it last year on social media: [URL='https://www.thirdkingdomgames.com/post/zinemonth-2024-jim-hall-of-brooklet-games'][B][U]Beetle Knight[/U][/B][/URL].
