This week it's the calm before the storm before our weeks get super busy 👀

Horizon's Call sets sail again now (3pm PT / 6pm ET)! The crew set sail for their next adventure, an ancient treasure hidden aboard a sunken (probably haunted) pirate ship! An Ill Wind Blows No Good but even ill wind can fill sails! Live on twitch.tv/sword_and_key

If anyone thought of buying CSP, it's 60% off now ❤️ I've been using it for 8 years now, can only praise it. Not perfect, but it's pretty damn near for the price 👌 I actually bought EX as a separate licence, not an upgrade, so I can use the old one on my laptop

Local people! This is where you can find me in person for the next few months! Note: I do take my unique pieces with me to these events, so if you were wanting something for yourself or for a holiday gift, you’re better off purchasing early!

Friday is the perfect day to drop an application... right? We're thrilled to announce applications are open for Summer in Carcosa - a MonsterHearts 2 series run by @phoenix24femme.bsky.social and benefitting @translifeline.org! Apply now at: forms.gle/uX4kAw4nTMAn...

We're working on our next big project! When we reach 300 followers here on bluesky, we'll post a preview of what Broken Door's next TTRPG publishing project will be. Can you help us hit that goal?

One of my favorite moments of San Japan this weekend was while I was wearing one of my Maya Kern skirts, a group of 3 people *also* came up wearing MK skirts and we all started screaming and pointing at each other's designs going "OH YOU'RE WEARING MAYA TOO!"

The site is back up! New items will go live on Friday Sept 5 at 5p Central and include a few trays, some sets (including Color Spray!), and the fidgets.

Home from the con! Gotta unpack and mark off what I still have, then will get the site back up this afternoon. Listings for new sets that I did for the show will go up later in the week, along with the fidgets. The commission form is still technically on waitlist but shouldn't be for long!

Whoops! Sorry for being a day late, but here's the weekly roundup this week at S&K HQ!

That's a wrap on @sanjapan.bsky.social ! Thank you all for such a fantastic weekend. I hope to be back next year! Couldn't have done it without my incredible booth helpers @saintjoseph.bsky.social & cryptidcutiecosplay (IG), much love to them for keeping me hydrated & sane amongst the chaos.

Sword & Tea is LIVE now (3pm PT / 6pm ET) Join us for our chat about @candlelightrpg.bsky.social on twitch.tv/sword_and_key Questions about the game and its design are welcome in chat! Check out more of Candlelight Inquisition here: bmcur.com/candlelight-...

Today at 10am PT / 1pm ET / 7pm CET… Things go horribly wrong… IN SPACE!!! Join us for a game of You’re in Space and Everything’s F*****, a game of one astronaut ( @mikylsandoval.bsky.social ) and a space station ( @anniekster.bsky.social ) bent on his untimely end. Live on twitch.tv/sword_and_key

If you are at PAX, say hi to my friends!

Eva & Derek are at PAX West today only! If you see us, feel free to say hi!

Day 2 of San Japan! Come see me early because I might actually run out of stuff???

INCREDIBLE first day of San Japan, thank y'all so much for all of the love! We'll see you back here tomorrow! You know, as long as Ghost Face says it's okay.

Jess is an absolutely wonderful person and you should all join me in wishing her the happiest of birthdays!

The site gets shut down tonight in preparation for spending the weekend at my last convention of the year! This is your last chance to guarantee any particular dice sets (or keychains, with the current tariff sitch I may not be able to restock those again). longdogdice.com/collections/...

These have been added! If you want to guarantee yourself one you've only got until Wednesday night to order it! After that the whole stock goes with me to a convention and there's no telling how many I may or may not come back with. longdogdice.com/products/rul...

Just in time for my final day push of finishing dice before San Japan this weekend! In addition to new trays, coasters, and fidgets, if all goes well I'll have added another 30 dice sets and a handful of singles to my stock for the show?

Hey everyone! Here's this week's schedule over at Sword & Key!

There are only 4 slots left of the dice tier, and only 6 more days to get in on it! At the moment, there are no plans to offer the dice later so this is your last chance!

We are LIVE!.. Here's hoping both characters stay that way...

I needed to do a restock on some of the others so look what finally has a keychain version! I'll be getting this added to the site this weekend so folks have a few days to claim one before I head to the con. (Credit to @gammakoruchador.bsky.social for turning my weird ideas into actual art)

As I finish up crunch for my last con of the year next week, let's talk plans! - I'm making dice for @candlelightrpg.bsky.social's Kickstarter, which still has a few days left to back! - I'll be reaching out to commission waitlist folks, and once that list is clear opening comms up again. (1/3)

Kickstarter is nearly 90% funded! 🔥

when the AI bubble finally collapses and everyone who spent a year smugly hyping it suddenly has to come crawling back with their tail between their legs, i just want to say i am not going to be the bigger person about it. i am going to be meaner than you can even believe

I WILL HAVE BADGE RIBBONS AT SAN JAPAN NEXT WEEK! 🎉 Huge thanks to @arielleishere.bsky.social for her help making the graphic!

I am honored to announce that Candlelight Inquisition was awarded the "Project We Love" badge on Kickstarter! www.kickstarter.com/projects/bmc...

WEEKLY POST LET'S GO!!

Horizon's Call is back NOW (3pm PT / 6pm ET)! Our horizon-hopping heroes are bound for the nearest port as their ships are in need of repairs after a near-deadly surprise attack! But new ports offer new opportunities... some good and some bad Watch live twitch.tv/sword_and_key

We're live now! Come watch the chaos and even contribute to it!

Y'all I am SO JAZZED for this! Support MSF and cause chaos while the final 4 duke it out for the crown! Thanks to donations the past fights have included the Aspect of Bahamut, Baphomet, and Zariel and it went about as you imagine it would.

Bluesky! I need a sensitivity consultant familiar with 19th century China and the British Empire's interactions with it, as well as East Asian mysticism (and British Orientalism related to it). Recommendations, please?

I've been mostly doing custom and pre-order work lately, but I am getting some new things done for my final convention of the year at the end of the month. These are SO shiny and I can't wait to finish them!
