Happy birthday, Mie Hama


Japanese actress, writer, and radio talk show host Mie Hama turns 80 years old today. She is best known internationally for her roles in "King Kong vs. Godzilla" (1963), "What's Up, Tiger Lily?" (1966), and "You Only Live Twice" (1967), but she appeared in over 80 films and television series before retiring from the screen in the late 1960s to start a family and enjoy what she describes as a "normal life".

Today, we celebrate Hama and her milestone birthday with some publicity photos from her time in front of the cameras!

It's National Adoption Day...

... and we apologize to anyone who finds Fanny's response to our request for a statement to be offbase.

If you've adopted someone, is the someone who was adopted, or know someone who was adopted into their current family, there might be something of interest to you on the National Adoption Day website; you might even want to share a story or two of your own.

NUELOW to bring More Sex and Violence

Among the items produced by NUELOW Games (the little publishing outfit headed by yours truly) is a series of clip art/stock art collections that's cleverly named the NUELOW Stock Art Collection. It consists of themed collections of public domain art reworked from comics and pulp magazines in a way that make them easily used in just about any sort of book or online project that buyers can think of.

By Max Plaisted

A few years back, we released a set featuring "mature" action- and horror-oriented illustrations that was titled "NUELOW Stock Art Collection #18: Sex and Violence". It did quite well... and now we're releasing a follow-up that's titled "NUELOW Stock Art Collection #28: MORE Sex and Violence". (Clever titles is one of our specialities, as you can see.)


"MORE Sex and Violence" will be available this Friday at the usual places. Among the featured artists are Hannes Bok, H.L. Parkhurst, and Max Plaisted... and today we bring you a few of the included Plaisted illustrations, in order to preview the set.

To see more drawings by Plaisted and a host of other artists--and perhaps even find some low-cost art that's what you need to illustrate a project you are putting together--check out "NUELOW Stock Art Collection #28: MORE Sex and Violence" later this week at DriveThruRPG and DriveThruFiction!
