There has to be more to it. Absent a media tie-in, an NDA on unpublished novels doesn't make much sense. Why wouldn't a publisher want some buzz about a future novel they presumably have exclusive rights to publish? It's free marketing. If no one has exclusive rights -- it's totally freelance -- who would be demanding an NDA? That argues for a media tie-in of some sort. Probably not Bioware related. Lego novel maybe?  He freely admits he has no idea how book NDAs work; it's entirely possible there isn't one--at least in the sense we understand them. That said, it's absolutely not unreasonable for a publisher to want details held under wraps until the product is actually in a more marketable state. There's always the chance the they hate what he writes and drop him. ;p Perish the thought! Maybe I'd buy an argument that a leak could encourage competing publishers to go after the same sub-genre and steal a march, but seems pretty tenuous to me. But what do I know? The only times I've talked to book publishers is about their in-house production software, not about their novelist contracts. |

Sounds like a Dorian simulator to me. Hey, this could be the start of a whole new era for DA! At the Magister's soirée, it's a battlefield of lingering gazes, false flattery and razor-edged retorts. You'll need a whole new skillset to navigate the nobility! Soo... do I go in with Cutting Quip, Blasé and Icy Glare for my loadout or work the crowd with Lingering Gaze, Vogue and Smolder...?  |

Just be thankful they didn't show up in hockey jerseys. Course, that's probably their everyday businesswear. You joke but it's pretty common at the Edmonton office for there to be a few Oilers' jerseys every day during Hockey season - I imagine our Montreal office is pretty similar...Austin, not so much  |

There probably are but, hockey is much more popular in Canada than Texas so you would not see a whole lot of hockey jerseys, if ever, like you would in Edmonton or Montreal. Football and baseball attire would be more common.

Football and baseball attire would be more common. It's also likely caused by the fact that authentic Hockey jerseys are far too warm for that climate... unlike here where my facial hair is covered in ice when I get in to the office  |

Katriana N Chabries @katriananc@mike_Laidlaw this is totally how it happened.... right? #DragonAge (this was a five minute sketch don't judge me) Mike Laidlaw @mike_Laidlaw Close, but I'm pretty sure he was swearing in Elven. Katriana N Chabries @katriananc Incidentally, how would one say "fuck" in Elven? Just wondering... it's for science. Mike Laidlaw @mike_Laidlaw I forget, but when I need to remember, I just kick @patrickweekes in the shins. QED. Patrick Weekes @patrickweekes Hurtful, sir. John Epler @eplerjcso 'fuuuuuuuuuuck', then? - Add 2 or 3 apostrophes and we're probably there...

I love the whole "pixel art" aesthetic, but let's face it, Real[TM] Pixel Art has pixels at least a millimeter wide and limited to only 16 colors, only 4 colors if you want to go really old school. |
