Go follow Howl and Zeneva as they face mad elves, gangster witches, a golden goose, and a divine conspiracy

This sounds hilarious! Can't wait to play it :D

Meet Blake and Sparky, my characters for my partner's homebrew pokemon campaign :) Blake's always got a static charge because of Sparky so she doesn't really use computers which does make her job as a reporter kinda hard but you make do, right?! Thanks @artmonkeymg.bsky.social!

Been down with the flu since Tuesday and there seems to be no end in sight.

Congratulations to the CRIT Award winners! But also love to all those award-less creators as well; awards are cool but they are not a measure of your worth. Keep creating. The world is richer and more colourful because of your voice and perspective.

It's starting to get cold here in Scotland which means the seasons are changing. What better way to celebrate than by improving your Apothecaria game with the epic Dance of Seasons expansion which adds in Seasonal Event tables for all the different locales? blackwellwriter.itch.io/apothecaria-...

Did you know that you can get my debut novel about a sapphic werewolf and vampire detective duo in paperback, hardback, and e-reader friendly e-pub?!!? Well you can! And you should! www.blackwellwriter.com/products/wol...

For completely innocent, historical research reasons, I feel like lots of people should get into building guillotines. Here's a handy guide to making one educacion.cc/en/step-by-s...

This is absolutely fucked

The Love & Lust expansion to For Small Creatures Such As We has been hidden away by the UK's new online safety law thing. The game has no explicit material in it but I wanted to ensure that kids didn't stumble upon it anyway so I marked it as sensitive content. No porn and no erotica and yet gone

I phoned PayPal on +44203 901 7000. The advisor hadn't heard of the itch.io case. We discussed the best ways to have a complaint go up the hierarchy. I was also advised to email [email protected] I'd advise phoning ASAP, insist the advisor escalate the complaint, and email as well.

Whelp, I can no longer receive direct messages on here so if you need to ask me something directly, get me on Discord via the Blackwell Games Discord or TIN or send me an email via the form on blackwellwriter.com Fuckin ridiculous

This looks so bloody good! Go sign up right now or Gordon Ramsay will come to your house and ransack your kitchen!
