Have we been posting on social media? Not so much. Have we been Idle? …Well, yes, but only insofar as we’ve also been Tidal Idyll. By any other measurement: Not at all.

Literally chomping at the bit to share more soon.

Well - in the course of being a #gamedev / #indiegamedev - I have been reading a lot of #fairytales and not all are widely available. So I'd like to do my part to make some of these grand old stories more widely available. People like #free #ebooks right?

A gnome like forest spirit with a red cap and a green beard

A byse (or bysen) in Götland is the gnome like spirit of someone obsessed with possessions and who acquired them unjustly. They wander the forest chopping wood and obsessing over property boundaries.

Website update today with a new, #free #eBook

Today we have the Life of Saint Guthlac, an 8th century hermit. Who amongst us hasn't wanted to get away from it all and live in a plundered barrow in an East Anglian swamp?

This first (very short) story is "The Shepherd of the Giant Mountains" by Friedrich de la Motte Foque. I'm not sure an English edition has been made since 1846? But I am sure some bibliophiles know better than I!

Looks like a nice place to rest your weary bones. Should this gravesite have some flavor text or an encounter with a ghost?

So what do we call this… half-cannibalism? Because I do believe the eldest kid means to eat those fish.
