#BENDY
: FADE TO BLACK out now!
It's called Fan Fiction. It's very popular, often well written & let's be honest primarily written by women. But for years it's been derided, mocked and downright hated. Now a man who writes "serious fiction" does it & expects to be the exception & make money off of it? Uh, no.
COVER REVEAL TIME!! 💛🖤💛🖤
I am thrilled to share the cover for
#BENDY
: FADE TO BLACK (out Oct 3)
It’s perfect!! It’s creepy & very Bendy, but most of all it gives you so many clues as to what the book is about! I hope you all love it as much as I do! 🥰🎉

Happy book birthday to me!! 🎉
I can't quite believe it but today I release my 10th book! THE ILLUSION OF LIVING a memoir by "Joey Drew". I had so much fun writing this, playing with genres, expectations & the concept of the truth itself.
#BATIM
#Bendy
So when I found out I was writing the
#Bendy
and the Ink Machine book I might have been a little excited. And I might have been collecting swag for a couple months now. Question: are we thinking this is too much or not nearly enough?
#BATIM
(not pictured: Bendy keychain) 💛🖤
My husband! He said he'd found a game that was about animation & film history & he knew I'd love it! He was right!
I love all the characters! But after having lived inside Joey's head for so long, is it wrong to say I really enjoy him despite his evil ways??
#BENDY
#BATIM

I honestly can't believe it's only TWO WEEKS until THE ILLUSION OF LIVING comes out! Where has the time gone?? I am nervous, and excited, and excited, and nervous and and . . . 😊💛🖤💛🖤

Very true, but they at least filed the numbers off. This gentleman is getting Guardian articles written about how clever he is to write something using the world and Lewis voice and coming up with his own version and people insisting the estate makes an exception . . .
You guys, I'm going to cry!! This is beyond, your messages are so lovely & thank YOU guys so much for the support! You have been so gracious & kind!

Google maps is amazing. I'm able to chart to the minute how long it'll take my character to get from one part of a random city to another by foot vs car. I can see what an intersection looks like. I can travel the world. In my bathrobe. Like Arthur Dent.
It's neat.

Absolutely believe that what makes a good story is all the parts, not just the beginning & middle. A satisfying end is a truly beautiful & as
@themeatly
says here meaningful thing. That being said we are lucky that there is so much else within the
#Bendy
universe to explore! 💛🖤
@BeninjaLIVE
All good stories come to an end and need to. :) Conclusion is what makes a journey meaningful. I expect a third game would be the last one of the mainline games. But I will say that the Bendy universe itself has lot of other stories that could be told. :)
Hey
#Bendy
: Fade To Black fans! I have a question: does anyone have any Papa D fan art? Seriously no worries if not, but I'm going to see the real guy this weekend & thought it would be such a treat for him to see some if there was! (again no pressure!)☺️

I'm getting a lot of
