My new workout! Hiking with 35lbs on my back!

I am about to start paying players to play Hunter the Reckoning and Star Trek with me 🤣

The worst part about going through a separation is that now I have no one to send Tik toks to. Now I just have to enjoy them by myself, like the video, and then keep scrolling like psychopath.

Maya found her Legolas wig she got for a promo she did! It looks good on Guillermo and I. 😤

This week: Me: If anyone needs help with their VTM backstory or touchstones let me know! 😇 Player: I would like help. Me: Your ex is the childe of the Tremere Primogen who is head over heels in love with you but also she is unhinged. Also her sire, the primogen, hates you. Player:… I love it.

HAPPY NOVEL WRITING MONTH! LETS GET THIS BREAD!

I am truly humbled by all the support we've been getting. Thank you genuinely. My mom is not in the clear yet and she might need a couple extra days in the hospital so, I had to raise the goal which is absolutely big and I'm so sorry but so far you have given me so much hope.

I just realized that Meat Canyon is the modern day Lovecraft. 🤣 No wonder why I love their content and yet am deeply uncomfortable every step of the way.

As I always have in life, I am pouring my heart and soul into my writing during tough times. Expect the most unhinged D&D/VTM/HTR/WTA modules from me in 2026 🤣 All the money from the sales is going straight to my 2 year old son’s college fund. 😤

Alright! I am finally learning DAGGERHEART!

I’ve got my NaNoWriMo prompt all picked out and I am ready to write. 😤 Even if the official NaNoWriMo is up in flames I still wanna write a novel in a month! 🤣

As someone who LOVED Swansong, I am extremely hyped for Bloodlines 2! I might donate plasma just to afford the game! Seems only appropriate to sacrifice my blood for it. 🤣🧛‍♂️

Hey friends! Wanted to give an update that my wife I are separating. Things are amicable as we transition to this next chapter. Even though I am heartbroken, it is for the best. I’ll be quiet as I process everything. But one day soon I’ll harass everyone to play D&D with me! Love you all!

This has genuinely been the hardest year of my life but I have every ounce of faith that everything will get better!

I need to hold off on launching my next project this year while I work on financial stability! BUT IN SPRING JUST YOU WAIT! I am gonna launch a Kickstarter for a D&D adventure mesoamerican inspired horror module for levels 1-10! Currently looking for writers! More info coming soon!

I don’t know who is more of a nerd, me who rocks exclusively black, dnd, or WoW shirts or my wife who looked at me and was like “Dayum”

Currently I donate plasma every week in order to raise money for assets for my next Kickstarter project. 🤣 This feels like the most metal/wholesome way to raise funds. When I say I put my blood, sweat, and tears for my projects, I mean it!

New sessions posted if anyone is looking for a game! Homies get a discount! startplaying.games/gm/deangelo

25 year old me: “Man it would be amazing to just play D&D every day.” 35: “Alright so playing D&D every day isn’t cutting it, I am gonna have to run 6 sessions a weekend in order to exceed my financial goals.” Be careful what you wish for! 🤣

One of my favorite aspects of playing a monk in World of Warcraft is saying things like “Do you think your Kung Fu is stronger than mine?!” To other monks. 🤣 Even more so when they also snap back and we have epic battles to see who can do more damage.

Ugh I love our local library!

Shout out to @magpiegames.bsky.social for sending me Rapscallion! I absolutely love this game so far and want to run it so bad!!!

Me: “You look upon the maid who appears little over 30 years old but she looks worn, haunted by the night terrors.” Player: “I tell the old woman-“ Me: “Wow, I said she was 30.” Player: “Oh well uh I am 17 so 30 seems ancient to me” So anyways I am gonna TPK the party with 30 year young bandits.

Currently all of my income comes from Curse of Strahd and Vampire the Masquerade. My unhealthy obsession with Vampires continues to benefit me! 😤 Just wait until I write a vampire novel right after this LITRPG novel! 🤣

I am back to running 8 TTRPG sessions a week on Startplaying Games! Legit almost at capacity for what I can reasonably run in a week. I may offer “Premium” campaigns now offering unique incentives at a higher cost. If no one signs up then it means free time and if they do then I have more money! 😤

After 5 years and thousands of hours of gameplay with hundreds of players my VTM book is finally breaking down. 🥲 I refuse to let it got though!

Update is live! See everything that's new here in one convenient tab (but don't miss old favorites that are in stock on the main page!) -> longdogdice.com/collections/...

Offering steep discounts for my VTM mini campaign bi weekly on Tuesdays! startplaying.games/adventure/cm...

Novel is almost at 1000 views. 😭 I am so happy folks are checking it out! Here is the latest chapter if anyone wants to support! www.royalroad.com/fiction/1201...

So it begins

The whole Dimension 20/CR stuff is cool and all but what I really want is NY by Night season 2. 👀

Chapter 7 of my novel has been posted on Royal Road! www.royalroad.com/fiction/1201...

Baby wants to throw down today.

Water heater broke and needs replacing! If anyone needs a TTRPG campaign let me know!! startplaying.games/gm/deangelo

BLOODLINES 2 COMING OUT 10/21!

Turn to go to Middle Earth and the deep reaches of space with the homies! Thank you to Free League Publishing for these copies! I’ll review them soon!

I have been running so many VTM sessions recently and it has been wonderful! It is so nice to be back!

The good thing about me is that you know I don’t use AI to write because there are an embarrassing amount of typos and grammatical errors in my work. 🤣 Also I weird just straight up forget to type words . 😬 Time to hit up editor friends for quotes.

Thank you guys for your support! 😭

Hey friends! I've decided to post my LITRPG novel on Royal Road! If you wanna check it out, I'd appreciate it! I am 22 chapters in, so I figure it is enough of a backlog to start posting on RR. It is the first draft so I apologize for how rough it is haha www.royalroad.com/fiction/1201...

As a reminder if you are interested in playing VTM I offer sessions as low as $18! Come disappoint your sire and try not to get your touchstones killed! startplaying.games/gm/deangelo

One of the best things about being a dad is having an excuse to always have Dino chicken nuggets on hand. 😤

Thankfully I have gathered a number of clients for Startplaying Games but I am like $500 short a month to stay full time daddy. Gotta hustle to offer more folks VTM and D&D! Is DAGGERHEART seriously that popular or do you feel it is just a fad? 🤔 I am considering learning it to offer it as well.

Update: I ran VTM last night and my urge to run all the VTM chronicles has returned. Time to look into running The Fall of London module!

I got hired by two groups to run VTM chronicles! I am so hyped!!!! Time to get back into Storytellers😂 mode. 😤

I got to read Dragon Delves today from D&D and I absolutely love it! I want to run The Will of Orcus so bad!!! Time to find players and potentially by the physical copy!

Ugh, I love being a pro GM! Getting to give players a wonderful first experience in the hobby is such a joy! 😭

Hit 40k words in my LitRPG novel! Here are some of my favorite books! Also not pictured a bunch of D&D/WoW/WAR40k novels. 😇
