Great read. I’ll be firing up some Gentry today because I only knew her hits and, from this article, it sounds like I would love a lot of her work. And the rest of the article touches on a lot of things I’ve felt, especially since Covid.

Life (Death?) goals.

Seconded. It's my favorite new game in years.

If you like tabletop rpg's and cinematic, superhero, or pulp action, I encourage you to look at Outgunned by Two Little Mice. It's a great medium crunch narrative RPG with some unique mechanics. There's a funding campaign for the Supers version: www.backerkit.com/c/projects/t... #ttrpg #roleplaying

New Substack is up. This week: Process of Elimination This one is a little more personal as it relates to it being 4 years #sober for me. It's a marker for me for how far I've come when I hit rock bottom (which is different for everyone). #art #lifehacks open.substack.com/pub/silversk...

Boom.

This is THE art I think of when I think of Ravenloft as a setting.

One of the greatest video game experiences - and very possibly THE greatest video game experience - I’ve ever had.

Since I don't game anymore, I think I'll just convert every D&D book ever to Savage Worlds.

The year is 1904, but in a world that never was! Dinosaurs, aliens, and mystics abound, alongside strange sciences & the rising dead. Explorers delve deep into the unknown. Adventure awaits! Dime Adventures is available! https://buff.ly/yeZS6yO #ttrpg #dnd #rpg #pulp #scifi #fantasy

Crushed today. One of my biggest influences as a writer, and one of my favorites as a reader.

Out next week...at last!

1969: The Silver Surfer ponders the power of compassion. In a time when too many people seem to be utterly lacking in empathy, Stan Lee's words, in all their melodramatic glory, still resonate. (Art by John & Sal Buscema.)

Start with Kurt Busiek’s run, make sure to get Fabian Nicieza’s continuation, and look for ZEMO: BORN BETTER to wrap it all up. For my money, that’s as good as any superhero comics I’ve ever read.

Maybe my favorite Price performance.

Mail call. I’ve got a big backlog to work through and I’m out of practice.

94 is a lucky number in THIS house! 100% funded! Thanks to EVERYONE who has helped get us here! To be funded this early in the campaign feels nice. I'll announce a STRETCH GOAL TOMORROW! Link: www.kickstarter.com/projects/jpl...

Wildest ride an ad has ever taken me on.

“Play to find out what happens” (or similar phrasing) shows up often in PbtA and other games, GM advice columns, and discussions about narrative play. But I've seen it widely misunderstood (along with fiction first, but that's another subject).

My PocketQuest 2025 submission is now live! The theme this year is "Dreams & Nightmares", so allow me to present: Wicked Dreams! As usual, you can download the full PDF for free via the Publisher Preview. www.drivethrurpg.com/product/5202...

What happens first: 100 backers or 100% funded? Link: www.kickstarter.com/projects/jpl...

My brother and I took "Only A Ninja Can Stop A Ninja" as gospel when we were kids and were very confused anytime we saw a ninja being taken out by a non-ninja in a movie or a show.

One of favorite images of Captain America. Showing up in Spider-Man's moment of need when all hope is lost and just...asking if he needs a hand. Art by Sal Buscema, Colors by Bob Sharen, letters by Joe Rosen, words by @jmdematteis.bsky.social. This is the example of Cap I try to live by.

Good question. Nothing I post here gets any traction.

Love these games.

On the opposite side of my ICONS/SAGA debate, I've discovered I'm quite in love with Outgunned which, on the surface, seems like it would conflict with my love for Savage Worlds. While they have surface similarities, being competent, high action games, they play very differently. 1/?

I'm in an internal struggle between Marvel SAGA and ICONS. I think SAGA's core game mechanic is the single best I've ever used, but the rest of the game needs a LOT of work. ICONS is my favorite in print supers game, but I don't know it as well and that core mechanic doesn't hit SAGA's heights. 1/?

People of BlueSky! Let’s get to know each other better. What’s your all-time favourite TV show? Quote your answer in GIF form.

Help. Do good. Be compassionate. Spread light. Because it's getting awfully dark out there.

A reminder that every small bit of good you do - whether it be putting art into the world, helping a friend or stranger, donating to a good cause, or just listening to someone who needs to vent - offsets all the evil in the world just a little bit. And sometimes that's just what the world needs.

Movie you’ve watched more than six times using gifs. (“Hard mode” no Star Wars, Star Trek, or LOTR)

He’s a cool rider.

Follow MAGIC POWDER Volume 2 on Kickstarter today! www.kickstarter.com/projects/jpl... The perfect time to catch-up with six issues of my fantasy crime tale, as the first arc is complete, and you'll be ready when the second begins!

I honestly CANNOT WAIT for Shiver: Corporate to drop. It is like a crazy fever dream of Business Horror.

It’s an amazing experience. From Alan Wake to American Nightmare to Control to both playthroughs of Alan Wake 2…and I’ve currently circled back to Quantum Break right now.

Mythic Mag Comp. #4 is today's Deal O' The Day at DriveThru :) 60% off crunchy Mythic goodness with a soft gooey center. I think my favorite bit in this book is Isle Of Kitra, which was just so much fun to make :) Mystery islands = win for me 🏝️ www.drivethrurpg.com/en/product/4... #solottrpg

Banger of a game. Worth supporting.

While the Age of Ambition core rulebook comes jam-packed with lifepath and character options, it cannot contain all of the archetypes, concepts and abilities that Trystell has to offer. Character Options contains a variety of new choices! https://buff.ly/GCSgWTe #ttrpg #dnd #rpg

My dude Hish in the news!

Oh, hey, I think I finally "get" City of Mist character creation. Finally made my first character, a Rift of Persephone who used to be a TV star but now runs an underground artifact trade while solving mysteries brought to her by the voices of the dead.

I knew this. And it's making running Lost Mines of Phandelver (converted to Savage Worlds) even easier because other users already beat me to making the maps.

I'm Jeff Schiller. I write MAGIC POWDER, THE ELF WITH NO NAME, and THE PUBLIC DEFENDER. I've self published some other fiction. I've successfully funded 11/11 Kickstarter campaigns. I've never done a #PortfolioDay post, but I'm ALWAYS open to collab, edit, or consult on YOUR projects.

I don't really do RPG reviews anymore, but Outgunned is absolutely the funnest RPG I've played or ran since Savage Worlds and my favorite new RPG in years. www.drivethrurpg.com/en/product/4...

We have an AMA for Starbreaker on Reddit right now. If you have questions about the core setting or the new Star Marines expansion, jump on and chat with us now! www.reddit.com/r/savageworl...

This is a simple thing, but the way this phone call from UNCANNY X-MEN #185 is depicted is pretty brilliant, actually.
