My hair is over a half inch long (which is the longest it's been in 10 years) and I can almost hear my dearly departed father calling me a "damn hippie." Might be time to hit the barber shop.

Wow! If i had any more stretch goals, we would have just hit them too. Thank you everyone for a great campaign. There's still 10 days left, but everything is unlocked, meaning FIVE new zines this year. Like the man says... Woooooo!

Fair warning. I just downloaded the new Diablo II. So if you don't hear from me for a bit, im ok.

Wow! At some point while I was asleep, you guys blew through the 3rd stretch goal (Deep Zine) and are over halfway to the 4th and final(?) stretch goal: Explore Dungeons Zine #5! You've funded EDZ4 and unlocked sMörkåsBorg 2, Tales from the Tower 2, and Deep Zine with ~ $155 remaining on EDZ5.

You unlocked the Tower. That's incredible! That means we've funded Explore Dungeons #4, sMörkåsBorg #2, and Tales from the Tower #2. Now we're working on unlocking stretch goal #3: DEEP ZINE (our Deep Space / Deep Magic fanzine) It also means we've announced our Super Secret Stretch Goal!

What's your favorite cozy/cosy TTRPG? It's not a genre I've explored before.

System Neutral Zines are the best. Fun to read, easy to convert, & full of great ideas/adventures that can enhance YOUR game; 5E, DCC, PF, OSE, etc. Do yourself a favor & back Explore Duneons #4 @chrisgwilliams.bsky.social & team have a great track record & KILL IT www.backerkit.com/c/projects/e...

We're 93.8% into the Tower. We're so close. I alsmost feel like you guys are just messing with me at this point, like "let's see how bad he wants it..." $31.00 <-- That's what is keeping us from unlocking Tales from the Tower #2. I'm adding stickers to all physical pledges when we hit this goal.

Having a great time playing DCC RPG with @bryanspellman.bsky.social on #DCCDemoDay! My wizard Tim just accidentally frosted most of the party and took out the lights. Heh... oops. 1 more day of FREE DCC sessions tomorrow. Did I mention it's FREE? Because it's FREE. @goodmangames.bsky.social

Who wants a free sticker?

My obligatory post on Explore Dungeons Zine #4 (plus more) EDZ #4 is funded. sMörkåsBorg #2 is funded. Tales from the Tower #2 is ~$60 from funding. Even if we don't hit ANY OTHER STRETCH GOALS, I really really really want to hit this one. We have great stuff planned and we're so close!

What are y'all playing this weekend? Have you checked out DCC Demo Con? tabletop.events/conventions/... It's THREE DAYS of online, free, and fun DCC RPG gaming sessions, geared specifically for newbies, but still fun for fogies. @goodmangames.bsky.social #DCCDemoCon

Explore Dungeons #4 (plus more) is currently 197% funded, which is awesome! Thank you everyone that backed it so far. It's been a really exciting project for me. Stretch Goal #1 - sMörkåsBorg #2 is unlocked! Stretch Goal #2 - Tales from the Tower #2 is super close (81.4%) #zinetopia #ttrpg #RPG

If you dig what I'm doing, feel free to join us on Facebook. If you don't like Facebook, no worries. I appreciate you. www.facebook.com/groups/Explo...

If you liked sMörkåsBorg #1 and want sMörkåsBorg #2, we are only TEN BUCKS AWAY from hitting that goal. You want it. I want it. LETS DO IT!!

We're 78.3% funded right now... gotta keep that BackerTrain rolling! #backerkit #ttrpg #zinetopia #exploredungeons

My Doctor's office just sent me an email... advertising their Black Friday sale. What dystopian hell have I stumbled into?

Creatives! Here's my Christmas wish: Please be kind and provide detailed line items on your invoices. i.e. the Project and the actual work you did. If all you put is "art stuff" or "writing" I might know what it is when I get it, but I definitely won't have a clue in 3 months when I need it. ty

Three new banner ads for our distributors website, created by the fantastic @evermoorarts.bsky.social

I've been using Amazon Merch for years, but the last couple designs I submitted keep getting rejected even though I own the art and IP. Looking for another source for tshirts that does good quality on demand printing. Suggestions (other than cafepress) welcome.

Went to a huge birthday party for a 1 year old last night. While there, the host introduced me to one of the other guests, a local guy who plays 5e, DCC, and Mörk Borg. We chatted for a bit about various systems and why Mörk Borg rules work so well for solo games. This never, ever happens.

Woooo! #KINLESS just hit Copper on @drivethrurpg.com! Also, 4 days left to get it at 50% off (TEN BUCKS!!) www.drivethrurpg.com/en/product/5... #ttrpg #soloRPG #exploredungeons #pleasebuymystuff

I've worked with some amazing folks this year and consider myself truly lucky to know them. @evermoorarts.bsky.social, @ceronomus.bsky.social, @bretthess.bsky.social, @smifink.bsky.social, @crawlstilho.bsky.social, @dronedartworks.bsky.social, Liz Borowski, Billy Blue, Scott Moore, Julian Bernick.

Available for order from your favorite FLGS.

A cross-collab project I was gearing up for got pushed from October 2025 to March 2026. Now I'm trying to figure out the best way to adjust my pipeline. EDZ #4 was slated for Feb (Zine Month) but I wonder if I could do it in Q4 2025. (I mean, I know I COULD, but the extra eyes in Feb are nice.)

I'm not on Discord during the day (or that would be literally all I did all day.) If you PM me there, I'll see it eventually, and I promise I'll respond EVENTUALLY, but if you need a faster response, please message Raven first. And if you haven't joined our Discord... discord.gg/e52svn6xTs

So this guy backed my Kickstarter and then posted the whole damn book on Scribd. I filed a DMCA takedown notice, which got the book taken down. Then I I notified BackerKit, Kickstarter, and DTRPG. Now he's banned from all three, plus Stripe. If you don't protect your work, nobody else will.

How about some free stuff? You give me the contact info for your favorite FLGS, I'll add them to my FLGS list. (Yes more than 1 is great!) As a thank you, I'll randomly pick a name. If you win, I'll send some of our RPG products to the store AND you get some too. Actual stores only please.

Game Trade Magazine #306 (August 2025) Heroic Adventure! #1 - Evil Never Dies (DCC RPG) (Standard / Alternate cover) KINLESS RPG (books, screens, sheets, maps) sMörkåsBorg #1 (Mörk Borg) Tales from the Tower #1 (5e) Ask your FLGS to carry these (or send me their info and I'll ask them myself!)

Just shipped $15,000 of KINLESS product to Studio 2. UPS: value? ME: $15,000 UPS: contents? ME: RPGs UPS: .... Me: .... UPS: Umm... anything explosive? ME: .... UPS: Oh you mean like TTRPGs, right? Me: yep Then we chat about games a bit. He plays 5e. I recommend some alternatives. Nice kid.
