It’s only £25 for the beautiful print book for just a little while longer. Maybe until the end of the weekend? What do you think? Reasonable?

I chatted with Matt & Rob of @dmofnone.bsky.social about Ride or Die, the Fast & Furious movies, classical heroes, and refusing to acknowledge physics when they get in the way of fun. Check out the podcast here: dmofnone.libsyn.com/393-ride-or-...

Everybody's talking about the second printing of The Old King's Crown, and rightly so. But I'm more interested in Annulet, the in-universe card game accompanying the campaign. How is it? Does it evoke actual tavern and camp games? Come find out! spacebiff.com/2026/03/03/a...

What an incredibly eloquent response. Brilliant.

Jayme Lawson from Sinners hit the nail on the head and said how I felt with the whole BAFTAs situation.

I'll be at Airecon in just over a week and a half. There all the days. I'll have some one shot RPGs with me as well as some boardgames. Come find me, lets play some games together! Are you going?

Where is a good place to get a very small number of pin badges made in the UK?

Want to hear me waffle on about taking to critics and the like? I'm giving a talk on the 10th @arworkshop.bsky.social. Looking forward to meeting some of the local design community. luma.com/xujrxzaq

Agree with this 100%. I want a strong authorial voice in my RPGs. What is your vision for the game. Don't add optional rules, don't imply you can ignore things. People will do that anyway.

Very excited for this month's @senetmagazine.bsky.social because I'm in it!

Couldn't agree with Amabel more.

Super excited to talk about The Wine Dark Sea

Triangle Agency review will be out later this week. Bar my two part Arcs review it will be the longerst piece I have ever written for the site.

Listen to this. It's a good un.

With tabletop gaming live out of the way my thoughts turn to Airecon, and my holiday in York afterwards. Who else will be at Airecon. Any recommendations for places to eat, things to see, and games shops of course, in York?

It was great to chat about small group #TTRPG play - there's some really good stuff out there for this
