So just what is the “Worlds of Kummer Wolfe”?
Great question. It’s one I’ve often asked myself for a long time, and it took me awhile to track down a good answer. So…
The “Worlds of Kummer Wolfe” is a weekly newsletter with serialized stories, worldbulding lore, and occasional articles on making roleplaying games to help your imagination take flight.
(psst… if you’re curious about books I’ve written that you might could buy? Well, I’ve got you! Jump on over here to The Book Vault!)
All that sounds very fancy doesn’t it? But it’s all true, every last word. First, who is ‘Kummer Wolfe’?
Well, that’d be me. I’m CB Ash, but most know me as ‘Kummer Wolfe’. To be fair, I spend my days going in several directions at once from Software Architect, inventor, UX designer… all the way to science fiction / fantasy writer… and yep, massive role playing game nerd. This does include being a Game Master and worldbuilder over on World Anvil!
To get right down to it? I’m a creative storyteller.
As you might have guessed, one side of my day is tech as a long time software engineer, architect, designer and so on. But I bridge those skills with the other side in writing fiction, planning RPG game mechanics, settings and worldbuilding.
There really is a connection there, I swear and it’s not just “software to make a character”. It just may not be easy to see sometimes until you squint a little.
Aside from that, I'm working on a few stories and roleplaying game settings, one of which is Hoist the Colors, and some serial fiction in Windtracer! and Legends of the Privateers!
Why Subscribe?
Simple. Here, in this newsletter, I write serial fantasy and historical fiction stories, and more! So if you’re looking for something new to read, I can help!
Windtracer Tales - Adventure fantasy stories that aren’t quite sword and sorcery but closer to action, adventure, archeology and more. All with a sassy main character who loves a challenge… and this setting is willing to give just that. Interested? Take the leap here!
Legends of the Privateers - This one is set in 1722 but not as you might know it. Here the Age of Sail is going strong, but a cataclysmic event in 1712 changed the flow of history. Here, follow the adventures of five Privateers who set out to confront mysterious and evil forces that plague innocent people. Together, they grapple with uncanny forces and myths come to life, risking everything to preserve peace and set right what has gone wrong. Take the leap here!
Last, I also try to give insight into game design as an indie RPG game designer. One who works in a one-person shop!
That means worldbuilding and game mechanics on the roleplaying game setting I’m crafting. Sometimes with the occasional viewpoints and insights I’ve uncovered along the way.
For games, right now it will be mostly Hoist the Colors, but for web serials and fiction, you’ll see chapters out of the latest Windtracer or Legends of the Privateers story. Why? well, I did mention I can’t resist going in several directions at once. It’s habitual… (send help! … or maybe just some coffee … )
My current schedule is worldbuilding and more once a week on Sundays, with the web serials publishing chapter by chapter once a week (usually Wednesdays) or every other week on Fridays! I try to be careful, because the last thing I want to do is flood anyone’s inbox!
But, if you’re of a like mind, or just curious, I’d love it if you subscribed. I would really appreciate the support!
Books!
Did you know I publish books? I do! They come in ebook, hardback, and paperback, available almost anywhere books are sold. Jump on over to my Book Vault for a lot more about it!
So, until we next bump into each other… I’ll see you then!
