    Hey guys,
    I have been very quiet lately. Let me fill you in on the reasons.

    First, I am now gaming 2-4 nights a week (depending on the week). Mostly Pathfinder, some Starfinder.

    Second, I found out just after Christmas that the publishing company I have been working with for several years was shutting down. They officially closed yesterday. There was much chaos as product lines were discussed, future of all the materials, a burn it to the ground sale happened, and all the aftermath. In a nutshell, small companies are hard to run, even after 10 years, and Hurricane Harvey didn't help.

    Third, I created a new company to sell my products through. We will have most of the old products that I wrote as well as new products and multiple product lines. It takes time, money (which we never seem to have), and a lot of work to get these things rolling.

    So, finally, I have Dire Corgi Games up and running (www.direcorgigames.com) and on Facebook (https://www.facebook.com/direcorgigames/)

    There is a funny story behind the name. It is posted on both (I believe). We are still under construction but expect to have our first products in early February.

    On the Dire Corgi Games front, we are expecting our first releases on February 6th. These will be products that originally were under the D3 Adventures line, but we are trying to flesh out the product line from there. Currently, we have some Pathfinder and 5E stuff in the works.

    On the job front, I will be dancing in the streets if it goes well, so I guarantee you guys will find out as soon as I can calm down enough to talk :)

    This image is awesome... so awesome that my wife and I did some research on it.

    It is the cover for a book called The Corgi Chronicles. The artist goes by Sandara and does a ton of great work, including lots of corgis and dragons.

    I am enjoying all the funny corgi pictures everyone is sending us. Enjoying them so much, in fact, I want to make a special contest.

    Find your funniest corgi pictures and make sure you tag Dire Corgi Games in your post. We will go through and find our favorite. The winner will then receive a special bundle of fun in the form of a special bundle. What is in this bundle you ask?

    The bundle, which will be given out to our favorite post, will include Extras! Mythic Giants, Extras! Unusual Townfolk, and Rydelle (Our dire corgi rider). None of these products are currently available! But our lucky winner will receive them before they are released. Winner determined January 27th. You have 1 week.

    Good luck!

    a part of me hates that this is already a thing, another part of me just wants to see them littered all over the millennium falcon.

    Lil late to the party, but kudos for the name and probably late for this contest. q.q I'm partial to mixed Corgis (I blame Cowboy Bebop) myself (previous dog was Shelty/Corgi mix, current is Pom/Corgi) and oooooh the mischief. Any how, liked/followed so there's that.

    Also, may you have more than luck in this endeavor. Most of all, have fun!
