GUEST POST: The Essential Hero’s Toolkit by R.R. Virdi

July 10, 2024 by Adrian M. Gibson Leave a Comment

There are three tools all heroes must possess. Know them by their shape and their names. They are the candle, cloak, and cane.

Magic swords, magical horns, and magic powers. Heroes throughout myth and modern fiction have had no end of magical macguffins to seek or draw upon. But when crafting Tales of Tremaine, I wanted to look back through history, and mythology, to what heroes have often had or needed, but perhaps not always got the spotlight.

The Nine Biggest Inspirations for Mushroom Blues

March 12, 2024 by Adrian M. Gibson Leave a Comment

My debut novel Mushroom Blues is out in just one week, and I am so excited to share the world of Neo Kinoko and The Fungalverse with readers. Humans are very good at accumulating information, and when it comes to creativity, everything an individual spews out is an amalgamation of the things they consume that inspire them. From movies to TV shows, video games, and books, there are just so many incredible stories and properties out there. So, to give all of you a deeper sense of Mushroom Blues, I’ve compiled a list of my nine biggest inspirations for this story, its world, and its characters.
