Here’s a WRITING TIP for you, something simple but which catches many of us out: If you have a great/fun idea for your story, use it now.

Don’t save your ideas for some nebulous other story which you might write tomorrow. You’ll have more ideas, I promise. Instead, make this story the best it can be.

Go ahead and break your fiction’s status quo. Go a step further and upend your narrative. Don’t hoard the big idea – use it now.

Hard to argue with any of this. I love working in games, but the points about share-price-chasing and refusal to make small profitable games because they won’t make “enough” profit are things I’ve been banging on about for years.
