It was such a pleasure to run The Lost Toy Brigade TTRPG for @univserezerottrpg.bsky.social! Watch them take on a perilous adventure for friendship as toys while I GM (from quite possibly the worst laptop camera ever).

Just over 24 hours left before our MEGA Free RPG Day Bundle comes to an end!👀 Just under 5,000 downloads - what a response!💥 If you haven't grabbed it yet, now's your chance! Totally FREE or PWYW! Thank you all for your support - we can't wait to bring you even more bundles in the future!📚

I’m super excited that the Lost Toy Brigade Playtest Edition is a part of this ^EPIC^ bundle from @rpg-trader.bsky.social! Check it out alongside SO MANY other amazing games from independent TTRPG creators!

I only eat shellfish after I work out so I can gain mussel mass.

How do clams commit fraud? Shell corporations.

Had a blast with Gravity and crew teaching them how to make Toys and running a playtest for them!

Just released the beta version of The Lost Toy Brigade! It's been such a wonderful experience getting feedback and thoughts from friends and fellow TTRPG makers, but now it's time to hear from the public! ⬇️ Links below ⬇️

The Greek Goddess Nyx won last night? I didn’t even know she could play basketball!

I'll say more when I can focus a bit, but for now ... While I'd love to stay in games, I'm also open to editor positions elsewhere in the publishing world. Fiction would be lovely. Before joining the games industry, I spent a decade and a half in higher ed roles that inform my work today.

Can't wait for this AP to debut! I had a blast running a playtest of The Lost Toy Brigade #TTRPG for @univserezerottrpg.bsky.social. Keep your eyes out for when it drops and be sure to catch up on the rest of their videos until then!

Haven’t posted about it yet, but last week I recorded a playtest session of Lost Toy Brigade TTRPG with @gravityfail87.bsky.social and the Ampersandbox crew! It was my first time recording a session and they made it a fun and inviting space for shenanigans. Can’t wait for folks to watch it!

I’m still working on a TTRPG about adventurous toys, but in the meantime be sure to check out my cousin @jenkatwrites.bsky.social’s existing (and thematically similar) game Dollhouse Drama! ⬇️

This movie has big shoes to fill. Literally.

I promise to only be moderately annoying about how much I’m looking forward to this trailer.

I'm excited to share that fellow TTRPG creator @gravityfail87.bsky.social is going live on TikTok later today from 2:30-4:00 PST to chat about my upcoming game: The Lost Toy Brigade! I haven't really shared much about this project yet, so tune in to get an early look at the project! ⬇️

Anybody not excited for the Artemis II launch tonight doesn’t understand the gravity of the situation.

Be careful of the free synonym buns at the bakery today. I ate one and got thesaurus throat I've ever had.

Michael B. Jordan is the Michael Jordan of people named Michael Jordan who aren't Michael Jordan.

I have poor social awareness at libraries, but it’s just because have a hard time reading the room.

The greatest trick the devil ever pulled off wasn’t convincing the world he doesn’t exist. It was actually a kickflip followed by a sick 50-50 railgrind at his local skatepark.

I rate Project Hail Mary a 10/10 for books that I won't be shutting up about for the next several weeks.

It’s not every day you get served an ad for your own game! Shoutout to Noble Knight Games (@nobleknightgames.bsky.social) for having Doctors & Demons in stock and surprising me while I scroll online!

If you're looking for a duet game with a bit of DRAMA today, may I recommend Feathers and Thread. ennio-goes.itch.io/feathers-and...

ICYMI I published my third book last week! (and tomorrow begins the audiobook rollout, starting on Spotify)

Introducing the newest and furriest O’Leary! Tali (short for Tali’Zorah) is a sweet little neighborhood kitten we took in when it started getting cold out, and over the past few weeks she’s quickly made herself at home with us. We’ll be waiting another month before we start charging her rent.

We're a small team of creators and writers hoping to make the biggest #ttrpg idea I've had so far. We're making not just a great game, but also paying writer 22.5 cents per word. Click the Notify Me On Launch button, and help us fund! www.kickstarter.com/projects/gno...

Slightly diminish a game. Text Message of Cthulhu.

Just watched the new Knives Out and I think it's really important you know that the scene in the Seminary's Gym is filmed in the same place Rick Astley filmed the music video for Never Gonna Give You Up. I saw the window tracery and immediately made my friends pause the film so I could tell them.

Yes, if you have to carve out a few scant minutes a few times a week, you project may take months or years to finish. But if you don't start, that time will pass anyway, without having a project at the end. Do The Thing.

Ironically enough, regular Monopoly no longer has a monopoly on the Monopoly market.

It’s weird that musicians often use a lot of bandwidth to write their songs, but not usually a lot of bandheight.

‼️48 HOURS LEFT TO CROWDFUND BITE THE HAND‼️ We need about $2300 more to fund! Not a giant amount of money in the grand TTRPG crowdfunding scheme, so I think we can do it! Help share it far and wide! www.backerkit.com/c/projects/s...

Super awesome to finally meet my game-designing cousins @paintingmoreorcs.bsky.social and @jenkatwrites.bsky.social in person tonight! It was delightful to hear about all the amazing projects they’ve worked on and fun to know that making fun stuff just runs in the family!

Tonight, my brother ( @paintingmoreorcs.bsky.social ) and I got to meet our distant cousin ( @zondrio.bsky.social ) who is also an RPG designer! There’s a very funny small-world-type story here! So much fun! Game family VERY LITERALLY!

My sister @jenkatwrites.bsky.social and cousin @zondrio.bsky.social are both also TTRPG professionals, and the three of us got together to meet face to face and talk shop this evening. I feel a bit under accomplished compared to the two of them, but it was a very inspiring meetup!

We've got 9 days to go, and a little under $2500 left to fund! Not a giant amount of money in the grand TTRPG crowdfunding scheme, so I think we can do it! Help us out! If fellow creators are looking for some cross-promotion or something let me know, I'm finding the limits of my own reach here.

If you're into them, you should grab my in-development games as community copies, because that means itch will let me email you dev logs when there's updates to them! Even if you don't think you'll get around to reading it for a while (or ever! I know how it is!), it tells me people are interested!

Do shapeshifters experience imposter syndrome?

Finally got to run the beta for Bite the Hand (from @spellbookgaming.bsky.social) this weekend and it was a BLAST! This #ttrpg captures the aesthetics and mood of cyberpunk and perfectly pairs it with Mothership's rules-light Panic Engine system. If you like being a punk, check it out below!

You win some, you louvre some.

Most people know that fortune favors the bold, but they don’t know that fortune also favors the italicized and underlined, too.

Super excited to have assisted @ugli4life.bsky.social with line editing for Reel Fear! It’s a great game and it’s sure to bring delightful horror to your table this spooky season! Check it out below ⬇️

Why do exorcists work out? To lift their spirits.

Huckleberry is such a great game and it's no surprise it funded so quickly! It's an amazing game with an elegant system, great writing, and evocative artwork. Collect your own bounty rewards by backing it at the link below!

Check out Beyond the Lighthouse for Candela Obscura! This supplement features work from so many talented folks and it’s sure to provide your table with some truly unforgettable sessions!

Two rules for running good TTRPG combat: 1. Every table is different and there is no “right way” to run it. Do what’s fun for you and listen to player feedback. 2. Train fights.
