Reading some issues of @newedgeswordmag.bsky.social and enjoying a bit of a fantasy break.

Totally unsolicited comment here: I read Suplex & Sorcery over the weekend and absolutely loved it. It's a great fun adventure that moves right along. There's plenty of action, a fair bit of cheeky commentary and social satire, and a world I look forward to being able to revisit. Get. It. Now.

Goatskin in your pockets? @newedgeswordmag.bsky.social

I loaned my copy of New Edge Sword & Sorcery #0 to the guy who hosts my Monday night miniature painting hangouts, and in return he pulled some old Weirdbook publications from the 1980s off his shelf to lend me. A 1984 printing of Brian Lumley's "The House of Cthulhu," that sort of thing.
