Little Fears superfan Jack O’Tears is running a contest! Initially intended to only run until sometime in January, he has extended to contest until February 14th to allow for more entries.
What You Need to Do:
Create a scenario, monster, or character write-up (no stats necessary) that incorporates the theme of duality.
The Prize:
The winning entry will receive a free copy of the Little Fears book of your choice (or the six-episode suite of Campfire Tales).
Season Two of Campfire Tales wrapped up last week with the release of #6: Old Man Winter. That brings the total number of products in the Nightmare Edition line to eight. I’m pretty proud of that. LFNE went a year after its release without additional material until the first Campfire Tales episode launched in October 2010. While I wasn’t able to pump out the 12 episodes I’d initially planned, I was able to readjust for the stutter in my workflow and publish half of them in about a year’s time along with the first full-sized supplement as well.
I ramped up my writing on all fronts this past year, contributing to other game lines and a very exciting video game project, and I look to continuing the trend in 2012. As some of you might know, I’ll be dedicating a good chunk of the first quarter to my new project Streets of Bedlam but Little Fears is a long-time love of mine and I have no intention of leaving it in the cold. On the contrary, I have some big plans for the property.
Last March, I revealed some information about a multi-part supplement called The Seven Kings. I’ve also dropped some hints about Book 3 here and there. I’d still love to do both next year but won’t commit to a time frame just yet. I’ll keep you all posted.
One thing I do want to announce now is that I’ll be releasing a summer season of Campfire Tales. The three episodes will be set in the hottest months which gives me a good excuse to finally release one of my personal favorite episodes, “Camp Howling Wolf.” I look forward to the change in season and I hope you like it as well.
Other plans for Little Fears exist, some more feasible than others, but I’ll hold tight on those yet. One promise at a time.
I want to thank you all for your support, your kind words, and helping to spread the word. I hope you had a wonderful year and an even better one awaits you in 2012.
Winter has come and with it—wait, where’s the snow? It’s almost the end of December and not a flake has fallen. While initially dismissed as simply an unseasonable warm spell, a curious admission from the neighborhood goody-two-shoes reveals there may be something nefarious at work here. Think you’re up for saving an entire season?
As with all the Campfire Tales, “Old Man Winter” is just $2 for a full standalone episode including a new monster and four new GMCs for use with this or any Little Fears Nightmare Edition episode.
Off by a week but ready nonetheless! Campfire Tales #6: Old Man Winter will be out this Wednesday. (I’ll also be revealing some news about future Campfire Tales at that time as well.)

As seems to be the tradition with this run of Campfire Tales (sigh), I have to push back the release of the #6: Old Man Winter until next Wednesday, the 21st. I apologize sincerely for the delay. My standard promise applies: If the episode is not out by end of day next Wednesday, I’ll release it free.
The delay is due to a multiple factors (the most recent being the fact I’ve been ill) but it will be out next Wednesday! Thank you for your patience and for your support.
As a lot of you have probably noticed, I added an Amazon.com affiliate widget to the sidebar. I’ve included all the things I could from the Inspiring Fear updates as well as plenty of other Little Fears-appropriate books, movies, video games, and TV shows. I hope you’ll check out the stuff on the right. If you hover over the top of the widget, you can cycle through the pages for easier navigation.
Making purchases through the link (and any other purchases once you’ve arrived at Amazon through the link) goes directly to helping me put out more Little Fears Nightmare Edition material. I would love to release Book 3 in 2012, as well as the Seven Kings series, but to do that I need to generate some more income. So please, especially with the holidays coming up, if you do any shopping at Amazon (for Little Fears-related materials or not), help out the original game of childhood terror. It doesn’t cost you a thing (I promise) but it helps me out greatly.
Kids can be so cruel. And while some scars fade with time, some wounds never heal. These cut so deep, their pain lingers even beyond death. On this quiet Fall day in the neighborhood of Hansom Creek, a past victim of local cruelty comes back to seek revenge on her tormentors. Those wicked children will pay for their crimes.
Something evil is on the wind.
As with all the Campfire Tales, “Dead Leaves” is just $2 for a full standalone episode including two new monsters and four new GMCs for use with this or any Little Fears Nightmare Edition episode.
I spent the past week working on a new Middle Grade novel (and hit the 60% mark on Friday). While this was great news on a personal project, it took my attention away from getting Campfire Tales #5 ready for a release this week. I am currently working on it though and will be pushing on it as my first priority for the week.
It may slip a couple days though. I’m working so that doesn’t happen but I want to address the possibility. Same deal as last time: If the release slips past Friday, I’ll release it free. (Further personal motivation to not let that happen.)
