@mcflycahill90.bsky.social is such a talent ✨

ICYMI!

Finally got to give @voiceofobrien.bsky.social an advance copy of my book, mirror monster dagger doom — and got to tell him how it only exists because of a chat we had years ago about storytelling. ALWAYS meet your heroes, especially when they’re as wonderful as Liam. Ever thankful, always a treat.

TONIGHT!

I can’t even fully wrap my head around the amazing experience that has been CR in Aussie so far.

International preorders are open for MIRROR MONSTER DAGGER DOOM, my silkpunk fantasy story collection. Every character in this book is a playable NPC in the campaign I’m running for my friends. And now… they’re in a Real Book! www.atelierarcadia.com/shop/mmdd

Now I can talk about this — my silkpunk fantasy collection MIRROR MONSTER DAGGER DOOM launches in July, and I’m doing a first look of it in Melbourne (YES the same week as the Critical Role show hehe.) 🗓️ June 23 ⏰ 9.15pm 📍 Fortress Melbourne

I was delighted to work with @cherylteh.bsky.social and some Discord friends on Vex and Vax beans + card art to celebrate the birthdays of our fine “twins” @voiceofobrien.bsky.social and @laurabaileyvo.bsky.social! Wishing you both happy birthdays and a great year ahead! x.com/thecherylt/s...

Making more shrimps for @cherylteh.bsky.social. Love how much joy these guys bring! #crochet #amigurumi #artistonkofi ko-fi.com/nerdvanacraf...

I emerge from edit hell with “3 reasons why you should read my upcoming short story collection” — - Do you like sorcerer ex-boyfriends getting back together? - Do you like shapechanger demons with bitchy warlock wards? - Do you like World-Ending Wizard Hubris? This book might be for you! 👀

Oh hey, it's been a while since I plugged the shop. Hey I have a shop! I make cute lil guys! Help this sweet loaf get her kitty treats! ko-fi.com/nerdvanacrafts

Got to nerd out about books with @voiceofobrien.bsky.social — and talk about the upcoming Der Katzenprinz! Check out my latest on all things @criticalrole.bsky.social books: www.businessinsider.com/critical-rol...

CRUNCH IS COMPLETE! 6 weeks, close to 60,000 words. Now… we edit.

There’s been a fair bit of speculation in the Critical Role fandom about what comes next. I recently got a chance to put this million dollar question to 4 of the 8 founding cast members: Are you stepping down? www.businessinsider.com/cr-critical-...

If you just started following me — hello! I’m a news editor for @businessinsider.com and you’re probably here because I’m the site’s Critical Role/Dimension 20/nerdworld/gaming writer… On a more serious note, I welcome solid pitches about the business, especially “dream jobs” in TTRPG/AP/gaming.

Recently, I got to ask 4 of @criticalrole.bsky.social’s cofounders about how they’ve managed to keep things running for a decade/ not break up the band. Their advice on how to work with your friends was super sweet. 🖤 Happy 10 years, Critical Role! ✨ www.businessinsider.com/critical-rol...

An excellent read!

A while back, four of the @criticalrole.bsky.social founders were kind enough to indulge my Critter curiosity… and I now have some answers about what they’ve been cooking up in the lab. www.businessinsider.com/critical-rol...

The first of several pieces out these two weeks! Check it out :3

Bidet Critters! On March 12, we celebrate 10 years of @criticalrole.bsky.social! I’ll be dropping ✨ several articles ✨ in the next days and weeks that you’ll want to read. Trust me on this one. It’ll be fun.

Hi Bluesky! I’m Cheryl, an editor at @businessinsider.com, and I report on nerdworld and gaming. I spend my work life writing about @criticalrole.bsky.social and #Dimension20! Outside of work I’m writing two urban fantasy novels, and 5 of my poetry/flash fiction collections are in major bookstores.

Meow.

I could organize my plot points in a way that isn’t a stack of messy conspiracy theory plot post-it notes… or I could just give in to chaos and entropy. … anyway the book is going well!

Fantasy High Junior Year Minis Auction starts next week 3/10!

It's March, so here's another thread of writing roles I've found to help out our journo friends ✍🏽 Reposts appreciated 💛

This thread from Kyle is a great look at how much goes into making a great CR series when the cameras aren’t rolling! The storytelling is top tier but doesn’t happen without people working to make sure the pieces end up where they need to be. #CriticalRoleSpoilers

Another wild thought about @agarthanguide.bsky.social’s design for Liam’s lizard……. Imagine this as inspo for a Critical Role Land theme park ride. Welcome aboard the Platinum Dragon Coaster… hang on to the golden scale in front of you! 🐲 #CriticalRoleSpoilers

How @agarthanguide.bsky.social designed a dragon that somehow looks just a little bit like @voiceofobrien.bsky.social is beyond me, 100/100 no notes. 🐉 #CriticalRoleSpoilers

Moonlighting as a part-time cat masseuse has somehow helped me amass a following of Frumpkins.

This is a new one.

Check out the Matt “Truly, A Rare Find” doodle, made my day

I know I talk about my shops a lot (b/c bills lol) but all my comics ARE online to read for free! And they always will be if they're my own IP ^_^ so if you need a moment from it all, you can find them all at the link below ❤️ #comics #webcomics elainetipping.com/comics/

As an editor, I like to tell my writers that the word counts I give them are not a suggestion but a rule. I should take my own advice. This 16,000 word “short story” started off as a “clean and tight 8k.” It’s neither clean nor tight now.

happy international game master day to all the GMs that make hot NPCs as fan service for their players 🫡

Liam & Co. did so well! How amazing it is to get to revisit Vox Machina this way, years on. (Also, the cover is gorgeous.)

This collection is wonderful and @voiceofobrien.bsky.social and the @criticalrole.bsky.social team have outdone themselves again. Can’t wait for everyone to get to dig in. ✨ (In the meantime, something’s cooking in article world. Watch this space :3)

Heyo! Unlike the comic industry, apparently, I don't hate money, and I make all my work easy to get (most for free too!), but you can also buy my comics from me digitally in my store, AND you can get them through my patreon/ko-fi now too! Also I have merch in my threadless store XD

If you’ve read The Chronicles of Exandria: The Mighty Nein Part Two, it would be amazing if you left a review on either Goodreads or StoryGraph! As I work towards more writing projects, it’s really helpful to have reviews I can point back towards. Thanks, y’all!! www.goodreads.com/book/show/21...

Not @ my foolish self drafting this manuscript going “it’s going to top out at 15k max,” only to create a 12-tab Google document for a 50,000 word monster, just great, this is going well.

Two things — A. the art in this book is SO good, just exquisite; and B. @voiceofobrien.bsky.social is such a gifted storyteller. A must-read if you’re a Fan of the Critical Roles (or if you just like! Fairytales! That works too!) insighteditions.com/products/cri...

I recently contracted the Felix Illness and I hear there’s no cure for it.

What a glorious finale. Congrats to everyone at @criticalrole.bsky.social. An amazing run!

Thank you @criticalrole.bsky.social once again for a fantastic campaign, I'm gonna miss Bells Hells so much. Thank you for bringing us along for the ride, and can't wait to see what else is in our future from you all 💛 #CriticalRole #fanart #CriticalRolefanart #art

Vax'ildan is giving peak millennial — can't retire and still gotta work, still paying off that raven queen mortgage, cleaning up his boss' messes, switching jobs but not getting more compensation, promoted but title-only, 24/7 hustle life... #criticalrolespoilers
