Here's a listing by topic of all my blog posts on the City and the Strange New World for easy reference. Posts specifically related to the production of Weird Adventures itself are generally not included but can be found under the label "Weird Adventures" on my main page.
Some of these articles were used as the backbone for material in the book. In that process, some changes were made for consistency with later material. Weird Adventures is "official" in areas of conflict--but of course, your game is your own.
