Heyo, lovely humans!
Next Friday we'll be replacing think tanks with a new format where I discuss the materials i'm researching for the upcoming series and how to distill them into content for the show. Think tanks as we know them now will become a...

Hello, helpful humans!
This time around things are (yet again) a little more podcast-y, as I dive into the convoluted logic I had to riddle out in order to devise a premise for this short story. This definitely isn't set in stone yet—it still bea...

As for me, I got all my creepy jubilations out of the way last weekend. Now I'm just excited to be getting back to work.
It's been a little while now since I'...

2018-10-31 19:04:33 +0000 UTC View PostHello all you lovely, helpful humans!
Unfortunately, I have a little bit of bad news. We've tried asking for your opinions on which material we should share for our sneak peeks, but it turns out there isn't always enough diversity of non-spoily, in...

Benji here, and I've just been wondering: out of everything we do here on the Tale Foundry Patreon, what matters most to you? What really makes you glad you're a part of this community? What rewards get you all excited...

We've got a think tank coming up in two days, and this one's going to be something pretty special. This time we're not only discussing story ideas again; we're discussing story ideas for for ...
2018-10-24 21:13:29 +0000 UTC View PostHello, lovely squishy human meat people!
Sorry I missed this yesterday! There's been a ridiculous amount of stuff going on in the background/periphery of Tale Foundry and Chloe's currently on a week-long (maybe even a bit longer than that) break, s...
2018-10-24 20:46:39 +0000 UTC View PostWelcome to the work week, helpful humans! I hope your Monday is treating you well.
At last, we're finally done judging for the competition. We have our champion. That means we can actually begin work on the short story, which means we have...

Nothing special to report here. The weekend's just coming to a close and we'll be back into it tomorrow. I spent a lot of time basking in the presence of friends and reading good literature over the last two days. It was exact...
2018-10-21 22:28:17 +0000 UTC View PostHello, helpful human helpers!
Since no sneap peep is going up today, I just wanted to spend this slot on another little progress update. None of the fancy footwork we do in our weekly progress updates, just a little notice about what's going on on ...

We're really just in limbo here, waiting on the results for the World Anvil competition to come back so we can start work on the short story video.
Once we've finished that up, we'll be back into a new production cycle a...

So, let's get started!...
2018-10-09 21:09:33 +0000 UTC View PostPhew. Alrighty. Now that we're finally done with that list video, it looks like we're kind of in an inter-video limbo as we wait for the World Anvil competition to finish up (on the 13th). When we get there, we'll start sharing peeks of the ...

This video is long overdue.
In January of this year we opened a GoFundMe campaign for my mother who was (and to some extent still is) going through some terrible times. Because of the cascade of events and how much she was giving in terms of...

This week you guys are getting a peek at how I tweak my thumbnails! It's actually a pretty rigorous process, so there's a bit to see here! Who'd have thought something so small could take such a great amount of effort to produce.
It'll be another <...

Hello and happy Tuesday, all you helpful humans!
I'll begin by saying that this week has been a vast improvement over the last several. I'll get into why deeper into the body of the post, but suffice to say that things are going to be far more ...
