Our little collection from #UKGE2025! It’s a mix of long-wanted games and minis, new discoveries, and impulse grabs. So many wonderful creators, so little space in the backpack! (Flat lay insistently overseen by Fred the Grave Goods dog.)

Didn’t expect the #UKGE lurgy to hit on the evening of day 2, but turns out a blocked nose waits for no one. Still, we had an amazing few days and it was lovely to meet such excellent folks in the aisles. We’ll post a photo of our humble haul tomorrow after we’ve mustered the energy to unpack!

Day 2! We’re wandering around #UKGE again today, say hi if you see us!

Spot the Cairn Skolk that haunts the graves of Strang Beorn at @nohr.se’s pop-up shop in Sweden!

Well, we had to stand on the train for the first two hours, but we ( @samtempest.bsky.social and @airymouse.com ) are on our way to #UKGE! We’re free range this year, so we’ll be wandering around and emptying our wallets. If you see us tomorrow or Saturday, please say hi!

Hey folks! It's started raining again, so we've retreated from the beer gardens and made really good progress on Strang Beorn instead. Will and Sam are nearly finished with the stretch goal additions, and Kate's starting her first editing pass of the book!

What a wild month! 282 backers and a worn-out F5 key later, we're done with #ZineMonth. We're going to take a breather for a couple of days, haunt a beer garden while the sun shines, and then put our heads down on getting this book ready for you all. Thank you so much for your support!

The final hour! This is your last chance to pledge and get Strang Beorn at its special Kickstarter price with the Cairn Skolk and bonus art post cards! www.kickstarter.com/projects/gra... #zinequest #zinemonth #zimo25

A Cairn Skolk perches atop the marker to Strang Beorn. It has a bargain to offer, croaked in the stolen voices of those buried here. Dare you oblige?
