Who do I know going to Gen Con this year? I'm planning my 30th birthday party for the Friday night...

I present: the lil guy

For birthday related reasons: do I know anyone who does LARPs/VtM LARPs? We may have some plans for July/August...

This coming Wednesday, The Ballad of Heartwork will begin. This episode features @thatsrickperry.bsky.social as Big, and @taylorannnx.bsky.social as Tempest, the origin of all water. With @rahrah.bsky.social as the narrator.

New obsession: making this crochet alien for my nephew

Lots of people are posting their end of year reflections. I should talk about the great things I did but November brought the hardest decision I've ever made and I'm in survival mode for the foreseeable future. Getting divorced will be the catalyst for my 2026 adventure though so watch this space 💜

In case you missed it, I released a semi-cooperative dungeon-defying RPG this year. Your successes depend on each other. glyphtide.games/chainxlink/

GALLOWS CORNER hit 1376 Kickstarter followers! As promised, that means we're sharing the trailer for @whohurtyouap.bsky.social's Gallows Corner Actual Play, featuring @michellicopter.bsky.social, @masquewren.bsky.social, and @emilygreymoore.bsky.social! A 🧵 youtu.be/YsT-NPoU080?...

I have never been as free as a role player as I was in Ballad. RahRah created a space where I could truly play and put so much faith in me. I'm still not over it. I cant wait to relive my own story and see how everyone else shaped this world. One of my favourite projects ever 💜

Join @theheartisadungeon.bsky.social this January, for something different and new.

Most of my dice vs a chocolate tub...

We've been quiet since our last update. That's probably not going to change, but we did want to share an end of the year update along with a cheeky set of additions to the rulebook. tacticsnchai.itch.io/bludgeon-the...

Watching The Mighty Nein with my dog 🥰

'a place as beautiful as ours' is a micro fiction audio drama brought to you by The Heart is a Dungeon with @ohheyitsgina.bsky.social & @rahrah.bsky.social. All four episodes are available today. Thank you so much for listening this last year & happy holidays from all of us in the THIAD treehouse.

Your reminder to give the gift of five star ratings! Enjoyed a game by a small creator this year? Head to the itch page, rate them five stars, maybe drop a short review and you'll have made someone's day sparkle 💖✨

The holidays are hard for some people. You might have no idea about what they're going through. Don't forget to be kind and maybe send a little "Merry Christmas" etc message to the people you love and appreciate. It can make all the difference sometimes

So anyone got good evening plans?

As we're heading to 2026, time to reintroduce myself. I'm Sam, a science communicator, event manager, showrunner for an award nominated AP & manager of a range of TTRPG & science projects! Do you need an event manager or content producer? A presenter or trainer? Let's chat! 📩 samsighs.carrd.co

I tried journalling today. I think it helped

BMP was made without AI. All the writing, all the art, all done by people. So am I using the current discourse around GenAI to boost my book? Hell yes I am because this is how we fight back, we show them that what we make ourselves is better than any AI slop that gets spat out elsewhere.

Just ordered a new print run of Fetch My Blade! Play as the dog of a retired legendary master of the sword, tasked with a quest of your own: retrieve your master’s fabled weapon in time for their final duel. Purchase the game: glyphtide.games/fetch-my-bla...

"Every Single Day" - Part 2 of our Mum Chums game with @taylorannnx.bsky.social @shamini.bsky.social @jcdarcy.bsky.social and @watermosaic.bsky.social is LIVE now! Join us for a brilliant story told my some top talent, with tears, tantrums and tipsy mums!

Dying and Campaign Building with Prequel and Ethan Yen! Ethan Yen joins us to discuss Prequel, the amazing game where you know you will fall to the big bad… but get to create a campaign before you die! Listen or watch: masteringdungeons.podbean.com www.youtube.com/watch?v=My0J... #DnD #TTRPG

Mum Chums concludes tonight! This is not an hours long epic. It is intimate and cosy and sad and funny and hopeful and filled with tiny truths. It is vignettes of lives as parents, apart and together, and I highly recommend watching and enjoying it.

Our final actual play of 2025 goes out tonight! "Every Single Day" - Part 2 of this Mum Chums game with @taylorannnx.bsky.social @shamini.bsky.social @jcdarcy.bsky.social and @watermosaic.bsky.social arrives at 7pm GMT. A tight 1 hour long story, tears aplenty! www.youtube.com/watch?v=fmQZ...

I've been asked for information about UK-based researchers with interest in TTRPGs and Actual Play. I have a half-dozen names off the top of the dome, but would be happy to hear of more to pass along for Schemes.

You're telling me I have to wait for news AND focus on my work at the same time??? Impossible!!!

Jukebox sighting 🤩! Have a loved one that likes TTRPGs, musicals, and/or karaoke? Jukebox makes a great gift!

Good Morning All! #HoneyBunchesOfHope update for the morning. We are already 35% of the way to the first goal of about 25 bags. Goal would have to increase to hit 30, but let's see where we can go. Thank you all for support and boosts. See below for details on how to help!

Head empty just the Mii music

This is extremely true and super important to remember. The goal of every oppressor is to remove all joy from you. Even little laughs are an act of resistance.

Shout out to my youngest, who just said "Mum, i think you look like a person" which is honestly a step up from the trash pile I feel like 🫡

It’s my birthday month. Not normally a thing I’m very public on BUT it means I’ve put a sale on my silly, absurdist not-level-20 adventure. I had so much fun making it and I really hope others out there get to have as much fun torturing* their players. *consensually itch.io/s/169464/bir...

TTRPGs let you explore elements of yourself and your experience that might otherwise go unshared, unanalysed. To be able to play a parent in a game, amongst other parents, was an unique and gorgeous experience. Proud of what we did here :)

Grab a cuppa and tune in tonight for this very close to home sort of story, that is a little different from other actual plays. But I'm so very proud of it, and remember feeling so much pride watching this table make something so very powerful.

Want to watch something beautiful that will make laugh and cry in equal measure? Tomorrow we're launching the final story of 2025 over at Who Hurt You? and a fucking knockout cast bring this story to life. Being a parent is hard, & bringing 4 real life parents to the table was so important to me.

"Every Single Day" Tomorrow our 2-part Mum Chums story goes live at 7pm GMT. This story sees 4 parents, @jcdarcy.bsky.social, @shamini.bsky.social, @taylorannnx.bsky.social and @watermosaic.bsky.social deal with the trials & tribulations of sending kids to school. www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y9ln...

Fun fact: a long day of parenting meant I didn't have time to brush my hair before we sat down to record... ✨️method acting✨️

Hey, pssst, want a sneak peak of the final AP of 2025 from us? Mum Chums, a slice of life RPG about the people who care for kids is coming on 10th and 17th December. With a cast of real life parents, this one is so ridiculously good folks and went places I never could gave foreseen.

Goodbye London. Dragonmeet was a good one 💜
