Note to self, don’t Ren Faire when it’s above 90 degrees outside even if it’s the last weekend.

In SPINE, I want players to play with the ttrpg's rulebook in innovative ways. I wrote this essay to think through the design. It describes the various ways we play with books in ttrpgs, with examples of how we use books as props, as anchors for fictions, and how we recreate them as art.

NEW (FREE) GAME FORTHCOMING: SPINE is a dark solo ttrpg about losing yourself in a book. In SPINE, you are a researcher who has inherited a strange book from an estranged relative…

If anyone could spare any resources to help this local teacher, it would be highly appreciated.

Lots of people receiving their copies of Infinity of Ships at the moment, which is lovely to see. If you missed the Kickstarter, you can buy the book here… It's a system agnostic toolkit for generating spaceship stuff for ttrpgs. #ttrpg

Arrived in the mail: An Infinity of Starships with illustrations by @thisnorthernboy.bsky.social is a fantastic guide to creating unique and exciting ships for role-playing games and science fiction stories. Lots of fun to read and beautiful to look at.

In some settings, if you see an orc it’s assumed they are an enemy combatant, but that isn’t always true. Sometimes the armed bands outside the city are bandits, sometimes they are freedom fighters. What do assumed enemy types say about a setting? My post explores this idea #osr #ttrgp

Speaking of Adonis.

ways to help small ttrpg businesses rn: - buy their games (ideally directly from them) - run their games on your AP channels - tell your friends about their games - stop being so goddamn demanding of them - give money to their marginalized employees - remind them they need rest too, and let them

I'm excited to reveal the cover art for Rust Never Sleeps by @alexconnolly.bsky.social, and I think I'll post it tomorrow (Monday) evening! Before then, I'd love to share the project more widely. It might be a stretch but... Can you help me get the original announcement to 150🔁 shares by then?
